EMS CDC Emerging Regional Centres of Excellence Programme

About

Emerging Regional Centres of Excellence (ERCE) is a recognition awarded by the EMS CDC to centres of mathematics in the Global South that have achieved a substantial level of research activity and that play a key role in training students in their region, including students from less developed neighbouring areas. This recognition is granted for a period of 4 years (renewable). An important aspect is the training of students from the home country and neighbouring areas to Masters and PhD level.

The current ERCE centres are as follows.
