Location: Italy
URL: http://www.unive.it/nqcontent.cfm?a_id=73027

Scholarship Description:

Since 2010, Università Ca’ Foscari Venezia (Italy) has offered a two-year MSc program in “Informatica – Computer Science” taught in English, which is suitable for students with diverse academic backgrounds. The program unfolds into three semesters of full-time lectures and labs. During the last semester, students work on an individual project and dissertation.

The program covers the theory and practice of a wide spectrum of fields in Computer Science and Information Technology, and allows students to pursue a minor in Statistics.

Three study plans, which include specific groups of related elective courses, are suggested:

Information Sciences and Intelligent Systems sub-program
Software Dependability and IT Security sub-program
Information Systems and Statistical Analysis.

Candidates who hold a foreign degree, equivalent to a tree-year Bachelor degree or higher in Computer Science or related subject (Computer/Electronic Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, Statistics, etc.), and are proficient in English, can apply.

Candidates can ask for a pre-evaluation of their qualification and school career before starting the official enrolment procedure (the on-line pre-evaluation procedure is open from Jan 15th to May 15th, 2012).

Only students who complete successfully the pre-evaluation procedure by May 15th, 2012 can be awarded with the university international scholarships.
