Overview
Four European Universities are combining their skills and knowledge to offer a two-year Master Course entitled "Color in Informatics and Media Technology" (CIMET).
The CIMET Master programme is broadly interdisciplinary and the course curriculum covers innovative areas such as color, photonics, computer vision and imaging science, computer science and multimedia technology. The programme objective is to educate students in advanced methodologies and models in computational color science. With a perfect mix of relevant theoretical and practical knowledge, CIMET post-graduates will be in the position to engage in further academic research or join major companies in the IT industry.
CIMET offers three areas of specialization: Color Imaging Science, Spectral Color Science and Media Technology. These fields, being emergent, rapidly evolving, and of growing impact on the Information Society Technologies, require specialists and specialized competencies.
Consortium
Strong links between University Jean Monnet (France) , University of Eastern Finland , Gjøvik University College (Norway) and University of Granada (Spain) pre-existed our formal organisation as a consortium to provide the CIMET two-year Master Programme.
Erasmus Mundus scholarship & fellowship
Erasmus Mundus Scholarship for non -EU Students (Category A)
For 2011-2013 Course, the CIMET Master will distribute 9 Erasmus Mundus scholarships for non-EU students (called category A students).
Top 9 students in the selection receive a scholarship of 48 000€ for the two-year course. The amount allocated to the student is the full scholarship of 48 000€ deducted of the participation costs of 16 000€, so a total of 32 000€ for the two academic years. Applications to Erasmus Mundus scholarship is managed through the classical student’s CIMET application procedure.
Erasmus Mundus Scholarship for EU Students and non European students* (Category B)
From 2010 on, in the framework of Erasmus Mundus, new scholarships called category B are available. These scholarships are devoted to European students and third country students* having stayed in EU countries for more than 12 months prior to their application.
For the academic year 2011/2013 CIMET Master Course offers 7 Erasmus Mundus scholarships for category B students. Selected students will receive a scholarship of 20 000€ for the two-year course. The amount allocated to the student is the full scholarship of 20 000€ deducted of the participation costs of 8 000€, so a total of 12 000€ for the two academic years. Again, applications to Erasmus Mundus scholarship is managed through the classical student’s CIMET application procedure.
Please note that Category A scholarships should be considered as “full scholarships” covering all necessary costs of the student during his/her study period in Europe while Category B scholarships have to be considered as a “financial contribution” to the student’s costs.

Erasmus Mundus Fellowship for non-EU Scholars
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.
Scholar fellowship: from 2400€ for a two-week stay to a maximum of 14,400€ for a 3 months stay.
Admission requirements
The following aspects of your application will be checkout by the Academic coordinators. Do not overlook your motivation statement since it is an integrant part of your application file.

The applicants of third countries have to be graduated with a graduate diploma equivalent of a graduate level of 180 ECTS in the European system.
2. Language
Language ability: teaching and examination being given in English, the candidate must demonstrate sound knowledge of the language (the requirement for competence in English is equivalent to TOEFL with at least 213 points (computer based)/550 points (paper based)/95 points Internet based or IELTS at grade 6.5, or a Cambridge Proficiency Certificate of English at least grade C).

Documents from outside the consortium countries must be either in English or in original language accompanied by a certified English translation. Depending on the home countries, applicants may be asked to provide Certificates of Authenticity issued by recognized diplomatic or administrative authorities. (only for students’applications)
