The university also organizes and operates 13 postgraduate (MSc) programs, two of which are inter-institutional, and collaborates in four additional inter-institutional MSc programs and the Erasmus Mundus joint program EMINENT. Programs in engineering lead to an Integrated Master (level 7 of the National and European Qualifications Framework). HMU is active in European research through Horizon Europe projects and maintains 32 university laboratories and 230 doctoral candidates.
