MSc. SCHOLARSHIP AT JAUME I UNIVERSITY,SPAIN
The purpose of this announcement is to grant one scholarship for the
training of research personnel at UJI Robotic Intelligence Laboratory,
Universitat Jaume I, Castellon, Spain, an internationally renowned research
center. The goal of this scholarship is to train qualified personnel for
R&D tasks, and is aimed at university degree holders from non-Spanish
universities, with a recent degree in science/engineering with outstanding
performance, fulfilling requirements for admittance to a master degree.
The beneficiary is also expected to join a research team within the
framework of an on-going project related to robotic research, working with
state-of-the-art equipment such as a humanoid torso with anthropomorphic
head and multifinger hands, and/or teams of humanoid robots.

The research will typically pertain to bio-inspired approaches about
learning and multimodal sensorimotor coordination of head, eyes and limbs
movements during the planning and execution of manipulation or interaction
tasks. After getting acquainted with the computational models and the
humanoid torso available at the Lab, the beneficiary is expected to extend
it by modeling additional mechanisms and implementing other tasks and
capabilities. Coordination between eyes, head, arm and hand movements and
multimodal integration will be central from both theoretical and practical
viewpoints. In this context, the student will have freedom to pursue
his/her own research goals according to his/her background and interests.
This scholarship is intended for brilliant young graduates and experience
in robotics is desirable but not required. Interest in theoretical
neuroscience, mental development, or interdisciplinary bio-inspired
research would be a plus.
Scholarship period
The period of validity covered by the scholarships is two years or until
defending one?s doctoral thesis, should this be earlier.
If, in the period of one month before the end of the scholarship, the
beneficiary applicant has obtained the university master?s degree, or has
been admitted to a doctorate programme in research phases, he/she may apply
for an extension of an additional scholarship up to 12 months, with a view
to prolonging his/her research period.
The beneficiary applicant may take a master?s degree during this period,
namely the "Master on Intelligent Systems. Service Robotics" at the UJI
Department of Engineering and Computer Science.
