PhD Studentships in BioMEMS / NEMS, Nanobiotechnology, University of Michigan, USA
Positions for both doctoral students and postdoctoral fellows are available at the Department of Mechanical Engineering of the University of Michigan (Ann Arbor, MI). Our group’s interests lie at the nexus of micro/nanoengineering, biophysics, biology, and biotechnology, and we are focusing on developing integrated systems for high throughput quantitative micro/nanoscale analysis of molecular and cellular functions. We seek graduate students and postdoctoral fellows from a wide array of backgrounds (micro/nanoengineering, applied physics, biophysics, and cell and molecular biology) with demonstrated ingenuity, productivity, and ability to work in a diverse, high energy environment. We welcome inquiries about these openings, which should include a cover letter, curriculum vitae, and any published paper or manuscript in preparation (preferred electronic format: pdf). Applications for doctoral students will be preferred for those with master degrees and proven publication records.

Europe: Erasmus Mundus Scholarships 2010 in Robotics
Erasmus Mundus Scholarships 2010 in Robotics, Europe
16 Erasmus-Mundus Studentships
Computer Vision and Robotics
Applications are currently being considered for 16 fully funded scholarships (fees and stipend for 8 EU and 8 non-EU students) on the prestigious 2-year Erasmus-Mundus European Masters programme on Computer Vision and Robotics (VIBOT) between Heriot Watt University (UK), the Universite de Bourgogne (France) and the Universitat de Girona (Spain).
VIBOT is one of the European Union`s flagship Erasmus-Mundus courses. The key aim of VIBOT is to produce the next generation of leading engineering researchers to solve important future challenges in a broad range of engineering applications. Starting from a comprehensive coverage of the prerequisites in the field of digital imagery and basic image processing, the students will cover at specialized level all subjects of artificial vision applied to robotics, medical imagery and 3D vision.
This Masters programme will provide an unrivalled knowledge in computer vision and robotics applied to industrial problems and medical imagery. Moreover, the students will have also acquired a mobility, a broadmindedness and the language skills which constitute, in an age of globalization, a major asset for finding research work either in a public laboratory or in a private company.
VIBOT encompasses a broad spectrum of scientific and engineering research from fundamental theoretical results to applied engineering solutions that have strong industrial relevance. Individuals within the VIBOT research network are leading authorities on areas ranging from computer vision, autonomous vehicles, statistical signal processing, robotics and image processing.
The Masters candidates will experience research cultures in three different European countries and will be able to draw on the expertise from leading experts in different disciplines and different nationalities. The students spend the first semester in Scotland, the second in Spain and the third in France. The fourth semester is reserved for the 5-month Masters research project at one of the host universities or in industry.
Selection Criteria
Admission to VIBOT is highly competitive and based on academic excellence. Applicants should have a minimum of a BSc degree in computer science, electrical engineering, physics or mathematics. The VIBOT research programme is intended for top level non-EU and EU students with a fluent knowledge in spoken and written English (TOEFL 550). Applicants are expected to provide a statement of their research interests and motivation.
