The European Master in Comparative Urban Studies (e-URBs) has been funded with support from the European Commission (project number: 2005-3870 /001-001 ELE ELEB12).

The main objectives of the project are: • to strategically deploy a long lasting experience of the partners in online teaching aimed at further consolidating it at graduate and post-graduate level into a "virtual campus" like arrangement; • to institutionalise a curricula of 60 ECTS in Comparative Urban Studies with an extensive online teaching (and tutoring) aimed at encouraging and facilitating the physical and virtual mobility between higher education systems and institutions across Europe fostering the Bologna process and the institutionalisation of a European Higher Education area; • to use an innovative ODL learning environment for higher education (© Land of Learning) to monitor the effects on the interactive process and the use of learning objects; • to disseminate and exchange good practices both among the partner universities, in the networks within which the partners are embedded and at major events. E-Urbs will be the first "virtual campus" like arrangement in the field in Europe.
