Erasmus Mundus – DMKM Scholarships
Deadline is January, 3rd, 2011 at 12:00 (GMT+2) for Non-European candidates

The Master in DMKM is based on experience in multi-site teaching gained from the Master’s degree in Knowledge Extraction from Data, which has been running since 1999 within three members of the consortium.

The primary social and economic value of modern societies is knowledge. For this reason, mastering Information technology for structured or unstructured information recorded in Datawarehouses, such as the Web, and containing dormant knowledge is essential to the development of both individual and society.

The Master in DMKM is aimed at students from all over the world.

Erasmus Mundus – MATHMODS Scholarships

Applications will be posted on October 2010

Erasmus Mundus MSc Course in MathMods – Mathematical Modelling in Engineering: Theory, Numerics, Applications.

Mathematical modelling lies at the heart of most current technological innovations and has become a fundamental tool in many fields of engineering. Essentially multidisciplinary in its applications, mathematical modelling and simulation is in its own right a key technology which is bound to increase its presence within efficient industries and business innovation departments.

The proposed programme reflects this multidisciplinarity, drawing on the unifying mathematical aspects from the various and often separate engineering disciplines. This allows the development of an essentially unified methodological approach to modelling and simulation of real engineering challenges.

Erasmus Mundus – EMDC Scholarships

The Erasmus Mundus programme in Distributed Computing is a cooperation between KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Sweden, Instituto Superior Técnico in Portugal and Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya in Spain. It is a two-year Master’s programmeincluding compulsory mobilty for the students.

The EMDC programme offers education of high international standard as well as cultural experience from two different European countries and a double degree from two universities.

Information technology is becoming ubiquitous and increasingly important for all kinds of organizations, including enterprises, factories, public utilities, state bodies, health care, banking,transportation, airport and harbour control, etc. Information technology, and distributed computing in particular, is required to successfully undertake and manage large-scale projects on such organizations. Furthermore, distributed computing provides the foundations to manage the communications and data processing required by other science fields such as health sciences, biology, physics, chemistry, mechanical and civil engineering.

CLP Conservation Awards

The Conservation Leadership Programme (CLP) is a partnership of four conservation organisations – BirdLife International, Conservation International, Fauna & Flora International, the Wildlife Conservation Society. The mission of the Conservation Leadership Programme is to promote the development of future conservation leaders and provide them with the capacity to address the most significant conservation issues of our time.

The CLP has been helping young conservationists to achieve their goals and move into positions of influence within the conservation sector for more than 25 years. Successful applicants will: 1.) Develop the knowledge, skills and abilities of team members; 2.) Implement high-priority conservation projects combining research and action; and 3.) Contribute to the long-term success of local conservation efforts.

This year’s awards include:

* Future Conservationist Awards (up to US $12,500 each)

* Conservation Follow-up Awards (up to US $25,000 each) – available only to previous CLP Future Conservationist Award winners

* Conservation Leadership Awards (up to US $50,000 each) – available only to previous CLP Follow-up Award winners

Erasmus Mundus – CSSM Scholarships

Deadline for 2011-13 applications is 17 January 201

University of Warwick, Ecole Polytechnique (Paris), Chalmers University and University of Gothenburg are pleased to announce a new joint Masters Programme in Complex Systems Science.

A “complex system” comprises many interacting components leading to multiple levels of collective structure and organization. Examples include natural systems ranging from bio-molecules and living cells to human social systems and the ecosphere, as well as sophisticated artificial systems such as the Internet, power grid or any large-scale distributed software system. It is a key challenge for our society to better understand, adapt, design and control such systems.

Our Masters degree teaches the tools to analyse complex systems and to understand their emergent behaviour. Students are offered a variety of research project opportunities to develop experience applying this to fresh challenges from the real world and within academic research.
