PhD in Sensitivity Analysis for Deterministic

the determination of control strategies for complex, dynamic systems, to optimise some measures of best performance. It has the potential for application to a wide range of fields, including aerospace, chemical processing, power systems control, transportation systems and resource economics. It is of special relevance today, because optimization provides a natural framework for determining control strategies, which are energy efficient and respect environmental constraints.Phd 2011 Latest Scholarships

The multi-partner initial training network SADCO aims at: Training young researchers and future scientific leaders in the field of control theory with emphasis on two major themes sensitivity of optimal strategies to changes in the optimal control problem specification, and deterministic controller design; Advancing the theory and developing new numerical methods; Conveying fundamental scientific contributions within European industrial sectors.

In order to reach these objectives, SADCO establishes a collaborative research and training network of 11 full partners from both the academic and industrial sectors, and gathers participants with expertises in complementary disciplines in mathematics and engineering. The network also offers a complete range of theoretical, practical and complementary training as well as scientific workshops. SADCO will work together with the young researchers to develop and implement effective training plans tailored to each individual requirements. Multi-disciplinary training based on the integrated scientific programme, secondments, regular meetings, active networking, will ensure the success of this projects.

The development of new ‘clean’ technologies in power, transportation and other domains is a major opportunity for EU industries. The research programme will help place EU universities in the forefront of Optimal Control, a field of mathematics that supports these technologies.

The training programme, based on institutions covering the principal areas of the field, will provide a new generation of young mathematicians with broad skills in Optimal Control, which are not readily acquired at one institution alone. They will be equipped to take forward research in Optimal Control at universities, or to work in related, emerging technological areas, of vital importance to society.

Master of Governance and Development: VLIR-UOS Scholarships, Belgium

“Is better governance critical for the future of inclusive and sustainable development?”

“What do conflict, governance and development have in common?”


“Which potential solutions for good governance present themselves on the local and the global level?”

This programme explores insights, tools and best practices for good governance in order that graduates could apply them in their future professional contexts. Graduates shall understand and be able to analyse, from the local to the global level, the governance problems which confront developing countries today.

The governance programme offers two tracks with specific objectives and courses:

Track 1: Governance and Conflict.

Track 2: Local Governance and Poverty Reduction Contact: Greet Annaert Institute of Development Policy and Management

The future of sustainable development is critically related to the promotion of better governance at the local, national, regional and international level. At once a cause and a consequence of governance failures, violent conflict is incompatible with sustainable development. Central in this nexus between development, governance and conflict are processes of state formation, state failure and state reconstruction. Adopting a political economy perspective, the study programme analyses governance problems and possible responses with due account of specific historical pathways of countries and the interaction between the national state level, local society level dynamics and the impact of global developments.

Most of our students are engaged in development, professionally and/or as researchers. The objective of the Master’s programme is to provide them with multidisciplinary theoretical insights and practical tools that will improve their capacity to analyse governance challenges at different levels and how they relate to processes of violent conflict and development. Graduates will understand and be able to analyse, from the local to the global level, the governance problems confronting developing countries today. Theoretical insights, policy strategies and best practices as well as failures are explored in order that graduates could apply this knowledge in their future professional environments.

The Master’s programme in Governance and Development offers two tracks with specific objectives, courses and target audiences. The first track explores governance and development issues against the background of violent conflict and the challenge of post-conflict state reconstruction. The second addresses governance and development challenges from the particular perspective of local institutions and poverty reduction.

Admission requirements

The following candidates are eligible to apply for the Master’s programmes:

• Applicants from the South must hold a university degree (Bachelor or Master) of at least four years of study in Social Sciences (Economics, Political Science, Sociology, International Relations, or related disciplines).

OBCL Epilepsy Scholarship Awards 2010- Epilespy

Job description: The 2010 OBCL Epilepsy Scholarship Awards are proud to offer up to 14, $1,000 scholarships to students across Ontario, who are affected by epilepsy. This year we would like to extend the OBCL Scholarship Awards by offering four additional awards for individuals whose lives have been impacted by epilepsy.

Students will now have the opportunity to apply for four new awards – the Margaret Burka Memorial Grant, the Award of Excellence, the Continuing Studies Award and the Artistic Merit Award in addition to the up to 10 OBCL scholarships awarded annually. These new scholarship are intended to offer opportunities for students previously ineligible for our OBCL Scholarship Awards.

Description of the New Awards:

Margaret Burka Memorial Grant:

This grant is awarded to a student that does not have epilepsy, but is living with the epilepsy of a loved one. This award is intended for an individual who has a loved one, such as a sibling or parent, who has been diagnosed with epilepsy. We understand that epilepsy affects the family as a whole. We are interested in hearing from family members or caregivers whose lives have been changed because of epilepsy. We want to recognize supportive family members and acknowledge how integral these individuals are in the lives of those diagnosed with epilepsy.

Award of Excellence:

This scholarship is awarded to an exceptional individual who has confronted remarkable barriers in their academic and personal lives due to epilepsy, and succeeded. These barriers have likely had an impact on their ability to achieve academic success and in some cases, stood in the way of their academic learning. We invite those who have encountered challenges meeting grade requirements in school to share how they dealt with these obstacles and contined their academic studies.

Continuing Studies Award:

This award is given to an individual, over the age of 21 years, who would like to further their post-secondary education. This award is specifically for adult learners pursuing professional development or re-training. The Continuing Studies Award is intended to encourage individuals who would like to further their education, through career development or career change courses.

Artistic Merit Award:

This award is given to an individual whose strength lies in artistic & visual creative expression. Instead of writing an essay, the applicant will submit an artistic representation of themselves and their own experiences of epilepsy. Possible submissions could include a storyboard, or poster utilizing photographs, collages, drawings, a web site, short video, etc. We would like to encourage individuals who might not consider writing to be their strength, to represent their life with epilepsy in a creative way.

Application Deadline: May 31, 2010
