- Abstract
The main aim of this paper is to analyze several international master's programmes in Computer Science in order to identify their common elements, their strengths and their particularities. Various mobility patterns specific to the case of joint programmes, involving from two up to six partners, are also identified. This information is then used to evaluate the status, with respect to the internationalization potential, of a research master's programme in Artificial Intelligence and Distributed Computing, taught in English, organized at the Department of Computer Science from the West University of Timisoara. The context which motivated the creation of the programme, as well as the main outcomes are discussed with an emphasis on the internationalization related aspects. Finally, some critical elements in ensuring the success of international master's programmes in Computer Science are discussed and the main steps towards internationalization are identified.
