Basic information
Duration of the Project: 36 months
Total budget: 697,090.00 €
Call: ERASMUS-EDU-2022-CBHE
Topic: ERASMUS-EDU-2022-CBHE-STRAND-2
Type of action: ERASMUS-LS
The main goal of the project
The overall goal of this project is to decrease the negative impact of aquaculture and fishery industry on the environment in Armenia and Ukraine through the designing and development of Master’s degree programs in aquaculture and fisheries, that is benchmarked to high-quality similar programs in Europe and responsive to national and regional needs, and strengthening the university-enterprise-research cooperation (concept “from education to ecology”).
The main results of the project are:
- 3 new and updated Master’s degree programs in Armenia and Ukraine,
- teaching and learning materials,
- modernized infrastructure and well-trained teaching and non-teaching staff,
- as well as a network, established between HEIs and the labor market, who will contribute to education and retraining of needed specialists in Armenia and Ukraine.
During the implementation of the project 44 teaching staff, 8 non-teaching staff, and each year about 25 Master’s students will benefit. Due to this project, a sustainable network will be created between Armenian, Ukrainian, EU universities and the labor market, which will act jointly on behalf of sustainable environment.
Specific objectives of the Project
The broad goal will be achieved by developing and implementation of the following specific objectives in AM and UKR participating HEIs. The specific objectives are combined into 3 main groups:
1. Curricula designing and development
1.1. Designing and development of curricula and learning outcomes for a Master’s degree program in aquaculture and fisheries according to the requirements of business and modern society, the newest standards of HE and the NQF.
1.2. Designing and development of modules for the new designed Curricula according to worked out learning outcomes.
1.3. Designing and development of teaching and learning materials according to newly developed modules and Curricula.
2. Creation of a conducive academic environment, development of human resources
2.1. Establishment of labs with modern equipment (hardware) and software to build and modernize the academic environment as a platform for training and retraining, PhD, LLL.
2.2. Training of the staff on new modules, that are part of the Master’s degree curricula.
2.3. Training and education of the staff on how to operate in the new established laboratories.
3. Establishment of a sustainable network for joint activities in aquaculture and fisheries
3.1. Creation of sustainable network between participating universities as well as close links with local aquaculture and fishing businesses to implement joint activities and solve the current ecological issues.
3.2. To set the groundwork among participating universities for future implementation of Joint/Double Master’s Degree education in aquaculture and fishery.
The project activities are grouped in seven work packages
WP1 – Project management and coordination
Project management carries out all activities related to the coordination and management of the Project. Management, coordination and administration tasks ensure that the project activities are delivered according to the plan and budget in each country and in project level.
WP2 – Preparation
Benchmarking of curricula and studying programs, designing and development of new LOs and Modules on aquaculture and fishery will be implemented in the frame of WP2. This WP is a base for WP3 and especially for WP5.
WP3 – Development of human resources
This WP is devoted to strengthen and development oh human resources. Three types of trainings will be realized: a) training of teaching staff on new modules in EU universities; b) training of teaching staff on student-centered education, interactive methods and practice-based education at AM and UKR universities; c) training of non-teaching staff on how to operate the new established laboratories.
WP4 – Development of infrastructure
This WP is devoted to the development of laboratory infrastructure in AM and UKR universities. Purchasing, installation and usage of equipment are the main activities of WP4.
WP5 – Development of capacities
This WP is one of the biggest WPs of the project. The main activities and tasks are: creation and development of teaching and learning materials based on newly developed modules; approval of revised curricula by the universities and state authorities of AM and UKR, and accreditation/licensing of them piloting of new Master’s Degree program.
WP6 – Quality assurance
To ensure transparency of activities and role balance in the project, WP 5 is managed by another partner (SUA) rather than coordinator ANAU. QAT is responsible for internal quality assurance. In addition, external administrative and financial experts will contribute to the evaluation and ensuring the quality of the project.
WP7 – Impact and dissemination
All activities, mentioned in WP7 ensure the transparency of the program, the awareness of the final results and process to external and internal stakeholders. In the frame of WP7 a network between AM, UKR, EU universities and labor market will be created which will ensure the sustainability of the project.

Main goal of the project
The overall goal of this project is to reduce the negative impact of aquaculture and fisheries on the environment in Armenia and Ukraine by developing master's programs in aquaculture and fisheries, which will be compared to high-quality similar programs in Europe and will respond to national and regional needs, as well as strengthen cooperation between universities, businesses, and research (the 'from education to ecology' concept).
The main outcomes of the project are:
- 3 new and updated master's programs in Armenia and Ukraine,
- educational materials,
- modernized infrastructure and well-prepared teaching and non-teaching staff,
- as well as a network created between higher education institutions and the labor market that will facilitate the training and retraining of necessary specialists in Armenia and Ukraine.
During the project implementation, 44 instructors, 8 other staff members, and about 25 master's students will benefit annually. This project will create a sustainable network between universities in Armenia, Ukraine, and the EU, as well as the labor market, which will jointly act in the interests of a sustainable environment.
