The master course aims to provide qualifications for entry into the professions in the area of robotics, computer vision, image processing and medical imaging either in public laboratory or private research company. Over 4 semesters (120 ECTS), the students could attend up to three universities, where all the classes will be taught in English.
VIBOT students are required to cover the areas of studies below, over the total of 120 ECTS:
Each university articulates its offer of courses on the basis of its own approach, in such a way that the students can benefit from different cultural and scholarly flavours. The students will spend the first semester at the Université de Bourgogne (France), the second semester either at the Université de Bourgogne or Universitat de Girona (Spain) and the third semester either at the Université de Bourgogne or Heriot-Watt University (Scotland, UK).
The last semester which can be a practical experience to research will take place in one of the laboratories of the university members of the consortium for the non-European students and in laboratories of a Third-country university partner for the European students. An another choice for the four semester is to do a vocational training period in an European company for the non- European students and in a company in the country of the Third-country university partner for the European students.
