    Stipends available for MSc Intelligent Systems for EU students
    ---------------------------------------------------------------

    We are pleased to announce that for eligible selected EU
    students we can offer stipends with free fees (worth more than
    3000 pounds) and a bursary of 500 pounds for our MSc Intelligent
    Systems. Together this stipend is worth about 5000 Euro in fees and
    bursary. This scheme applies to our October 2006 for selected EU
    students.

    The School of Computing and Technology, University of Sunderland
    is delighted to announce the launch of its MSc Intelligent Systems
    programme for 2006. Building on the School's leading edge
    research in intelligent systems this masters programme will be
    funded partially via the ESF programme and Women into Science
    programme.

    Intelligent Systems is an exciting field of study for science and
    industry since the currently existing computing systems have
    often not yet reached the various aspects of human performance.
    "Intelligent Systems" is a term to describe software systems and
    methods, which simulate aspects of intelligent behaviour. The intention
    is to learn from nature and human performance in order to build more
    powerful computing systems. The aim is to learn from cognitive science,
    neuroscience, biology, engineering, and linguistics for building more
    powerful computational system architectures. In this programme a
    wide variety of novel and exciting techniques will be taught including
    neural networks, intelligent robotics, machine learning, natural
    language processing, vision, evolutionary genetic computing, data
    mining, fuzzy methods, and hybrid intelligent architectures.

    The Bursary Scheme applies to this Masters programme commencing
    October 2006 and we have obtained funding through both the European
    Social Fund (ESF) and under the women into science programme for UK and
    EU students.
