This is an Erasmus Mundus Design Measure (EMDM) that intends to design the structure of the Master course In photonic NetwoRking and clOud Engineering (MONROE), organized over 4 semesters. The master's program aims to train talented students to become capable of designing, implementing and evaluating innovative ideas for future fixed and mobile networks and services. Specifically, MONROE will train young telecommunication and electrical engineers in the advanced use of photonics and cloud computing for future networking (e.g., Data Center, 6G systems, etc.), as these are considered central elements to sustain the continuity of Moore law in ICT and the steady improvement of the telecommunication network Key Performance lndicators (KPls), while reducing the carbon footprint and power consumption. The main MONROE's learning outcomes will comprise the co-design of the hardware system/network devices and relevant software components, their joint experimental assessment, and their adoption to support citizen-driven applications and vertical industries. In this design phase, the Coordinating HEI Sant'Anna School of Advanced Studies (SSSA, ltaly) will cooperate with the University of Glasgow (UGLA, UK) and Budapest University of Technology and Economics (BME, Hungary). The master's program will be framed within EELISA and CIVIS European University initiatives, with SSSA, UGLA and BME as partners. The broad involvement of associated partners together with the access to resources from EELISA, CIVIS and Erasmus Mundus Association networks will be a key tool to promote inclusion across several elements of the master course.
