[Netherlands] PhD scholarships for international students - Maastricht University
Applications are invited from suitably qualified international students for scholarships to undertake the degree of Master by Research or Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Western Australia (UWA). The purpose of the Endeavour IPRS, the UWA SIRF scheme and the International Research Fee Scholarships for China
(IRFSCs) is to attract top quality international postgraduate students to areas in which the University has specialized research strengths and to support Australia’s research effort. Successful applicants can expect to become members of a research team working under the direction of senior researchers and in an area which has attracted external resources.
The Computer Vision research group at the School of Computer Science and Software Engineering (http://www.csse.uwa.edu.au) of UWA is working on a broad number of research projects related to computer vision (including 3D computer vision, 3D biometrics, forensics, motion and visual tracking, video sequence analysis), image processing (including medical image processing), and pattern recognition. Suitable international students interested in completing their PhD Degrees in any of these areas are welcome to contact A/Prof Mohammed Bennamoun (Email: bennamou@csse.uwa.edu.au) or Dr. Rachel Cardell-Oliver (rachel@csse.uwa.edu.au) to discuss about potential supervisor(s) and research projects offered by the research group. The School has also many other strong research areas.
