M.Sc. CIMET is a first class and unique European Master’s programme providing a comprehensive and interdisciplinary approach to the field of imaging science, photonics, computer vision, optics and multimedia technology.
The study programme is geared towards both scientific research and applicative research for all major industries.
The CIMET consortium is composed of University of Saint-Etienne (France), University of Eastern Finland (Finland), University of Granada (Spain) and University College Gjovik (Norway) and delivers the two-year Master programme entitled “Color in Informatics and Media Technology” (CIMET) under the prestigious Erasmus Mundus programme.
CIMET is a two-year Master course (120 ECTS) with an interdisciplinary approach on the field of color science and technology, it encompasses photonics, computer vision and imaging science, computer science and multimedia technology as a mix of relevant theoretical and practical knowledge.
CIMET (www.master-erasmusmundus-color.eu) is part of the prestigious Erasmus Mundus programme (http://ec.europa.eu/education/external-relation-programmes/doc72_en.htm), and has launched its campaign to recruit students and visiting scholars (PhD minimum) for the 2011-2013 programme.
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 are given in English throughout the consortium. To qualify for admission, applicants must have a Bachelor degree (180 ECTS) in computer science, physics, mathematics or similar field.
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. Those Non-EU visiting scholars, if selected, can benefit from an attractive fellowship.
