What is an International Master Degree (IntM) ?

[chiron0304]

Hi everyone,

These years, Erasmus Mundus program usually award an IntM degree (International Master). I have never heard of an IntM and there are also few information about this kind of degree on the internet. Compared a regular MA or MSc, it is worth more or less?  Is it only widely accepted in European continent? 

I'm an undregraduate student who applied to the Erasmus South European Studies program. Its syllabus really fits me and I love this program. But I still worry about its peculiar IntM degree. It doesn't seem to be a widely known academic degree. So I'm wondering if it's a good choice? After graduation I hope to find PhD opportunities in Europe, but I'm afraid that people probably won't even know what an "IntM" is.

Does any current or former Erasmus students know more about that?  Could you tell me what is the state of an IntM degree in academic world?

Thanks!
