Master's programme CIMET, Color in Informatics and Media Technology

Four European universities have teamed up to offer the two-year CIMET Master's programme: the University of Saint-Etienne (France), University of Eastern Finland (former University of Joensuu), University of Granada (Spain) and University College Gjovik (Norway).

The coursework covers photonics, computer vision and imaging science, and computer science and multimedia technology. There is a mixture of both theoretical and practical work.

CIMET is part of the Erasmus Mundus programme (http://www.master-erasmusmunduscolor.eu/), and has launched its campaign to recruit students and scholars for the 2010-2012 degree.

The programme requests high mobility, but it is possible to mainly study in one host university and attend only one semester in another university. All courses will be given in English throughout the consortium.

The CIMET consortium is also able to host academics specialized in the fields of optics, colour, image and media technology. Scholars (PhD minimum) will be expected to contribute to the teaching of one compulsory course or one optional specialization course, under the direction of a permanent teacher at the host institution.

The deadline for non-European students is the 8th of January 2010, while
the deadline for European students is the 9th of April 2009. There is a
lot more information regarding the applications procedure on the course
website. (http://www.master-erasmusmundus-color.eu) To qualify for admission, applicants must have a Bachelor degree in computer science, physics or mathematics.
