Within the SARENA programme, students from different parts of the world have the opportunity to obtain a master's degree in nuclear engineering by participating in a two-year curriculum combining academic programs in France, Spain, Finland and Slovenia (depending on the selected study track). The concept and organization of the SARENA programme are described. The experience from the first four cohorts is presented and assessed both quantitatively and qualitatively. So far, the programme has mostly fulfilled expectations. As the students went through a very selective admission process, their mostly satisfactory academic performance was expected. An additional aspect was the cultural interaction between SARENA students and their new educational environments.
