The International Master of Science in Fire Safety Engineering (IMFSE) is a two-year educational programme in the Erasmus+ framework. This Master’s programme is organised jointly by:
These three leading European research universities with complementary expertise in the field of fire safety engineering (FSE) join together with the main objective of creating an educational programme that defines the required knowledge for a professional fire safety engineer, capable of developing a Performance-Based Design (PBD). The three IMFSE universities are leading European institutions in the field of fire safety, providing both educational programmes and high-level research. Ghent aims at general FSE, Lund is recognised in enclosure fire dynamics, CFD modelling, human behaviour during fires and evacuation, and methods for risk assessment, and Edinburgh is the developer of the first curriculum in structural fire safety engineering.
The consortium has three associated partners: ETH Zürich, Switzerland, The University of Queensland, Australia and the University of Maryland, USA.
IMFSE also involves 15 industrial partners as official sponsors. With their annual financial contributions and EU support, it has been possible to create the ‘Sponsorship Consortium’, which awards IMFSE students full or partial scholarships.
The IMFSE programme consists of four semesters of 30 ECTS credits each. The mobility structure, with a possible change in study location after each semester, gives the students the opportunity to gain from the strengths and expertise of each of the three universities.
The classes in the first semester can be attended in Ghent or Edinburgh. All students spend the second semester in Lund. In the third semester, classes are again taught in Ghent (for general FSE) or Edinburgh (with focus on structural engineering in the context of FSE). The fourth semester is devoted to the Master’s thesis, hosted by one of the three institutes or associate partners and is often performed in collaboration with one of the programme sponsors.
Fire safety engineering is a multidisciplinary field that requires a deep understanding of building design and construction, the thermo-chemical processes associated to fire growth, human behaviour and the representation of the many uncertainties through risk assessments. A fire safety engineer fulfils a broad range of duties, all related to fire safety. This can range from designing fire protection for a space station to ensuring that the occupants of buildings are safe from fire. Fire safety engineers have always been in great demand by industry, insurance companies, rescue services, educational institutions, consulting firms and government bodies around the world.
The major educational objectives of the Master’s Programme are that the Master’s students in FSE:

Lund University was founded in 1666 and has 40 000 students and 8 000 employees. It offers more than 130 Master’s programmes and 10 Bachelor’s programmes taught in English .
Lund is Sweden’s most attractive study destination. The University offers one of the broadest ranges of programmes and courses in Scandinavia, based on cross-disciplinary and cutting-edge research. A degree from Lund University is a hallmark of quality both in Sweden and abroad.
Our nine faculties and many specialised research centres offer education in the following subject areas:
Lund is home to over 30 world-leading research environments and is home to two of Europe's largest materials research facilities: MAX IV (inaugurated in 2016) and ESS (to open in 2023). Lund University is also a member of the prestigious research-intensive university networks Universitas 21 (U21) , the League of European Research Universities (LERU) and the European University Alliance for Global Health (EUGLOH).
Critical thinking and freedom of mind are the cornerstones of academic life at Lund University. A focus on group work in more informal, open class environments facilitates learning, creates a dialogue and helps generate new ideas.
Lund is an international meeting place for students and researchers alike. This creates global class environments where students gain new cultural perspectives and can develop their international networks, which are highly valued by employers worldwide.
Students in Lund are given excellent opportunities for business interaction . The city of Lund has a unique, world-class environment for technology, knowledge, innovation and entrepreneurship and hosts an impressive breadth of international companies.
Lund is the #1 choice for international students coming to Sweden and is considered the best student city in Sweden, with its unique combination of large social clubs (the historic 'nations'), student unions and the Academic Society creating a vibrant and active student life.
Located in southern Sweden, the city of Lund is just 10 minutes by train to Sweden’s third largest city, Malmö, and only 35 minutes by train to Copenhagen Airport in Denmark.
As one of the oldest cities in Sweden, dating back to 990, Lund is a city of contrasts where over 1 000 years of history blend with modern knowledge and ideas. In Lund, you find the charm of a small, picturesque, cobble-stoned city, side-by-side with big city attractions such as services, shopping, restaurants and cultural events. Lund is also home to major international companies such as Sony Mobile, Tetra Pak, Ericsson, Alfa Laval and Gambro.
English is widely spoken in Sweden and Lund (90% of Swedes are fluent) , meaning that you can experience a unique European culture without experiencing a language barrier.
