Life as an emmirian

Who are EMMIRians?

So far, all 9 EMMIR cohorts have graduated, with no cohorts of current students. There are over 230 EMMIR alumni from all over the world!. Here are some numbers that can help give an overview of our diverse network on EMMIRians (updated January 2019, including cohorts 1-6):

Where are our students now?

As of September 2023, all cohorts 1-9 have graduated, Edition 10 is beginning their 3rd semester, and Edition 11 has just started their first semester. Good luck to our graduates, and we are looking forward to this next journey with #EMMIRE11!

EMMIR video corner

Every first semester during the Intensive Phase (IP), EMMIR students are invited to record and create a video about their cohort to be presented during the opening ceremony at the end of September. Some cohorts have chosen not to participate in this activity, but have created other videos during their studies. The following is a sampling of videos created by our students, either for the Intensive Phase project or otherwise. Grab some popcorn, and see first-hand what it's like to be an EMMIRian!
