Dear all
I would like to bring to your attention to the 2012/2013 edition of the NEMPS
Ph.D. program of University Lusofona (http://nemps.ulusofona.pt). The second
round of applications started today and will last until Oct 30th 2012.
This is a 3 year Ph.D program with a curricular year focus on research, with 2
research oriented courses, 2 mandatory courses and 3 optional courses. The
major goal is to have the students fully enrolled in their research as soon as
possible. The thesis work can be done in collaboration with our industrial
partners.
Some scholarships are available for the best candidates, and we aim to work
closely with our industrial partners to ensure continuation of the research
work after the conclusion of the PhD.
Any further questions should be send to: nemps-... at siti1.ulusofona.pt

Structure
The increasing Internet pervasiveness as communication and social media is
changing the daily routines of today's Information Society, providing not only
solid grounds to improve social interaction, but also assisting in the
dissemination of regional/local scope interests - thus contributing to a true
global village.
In such pervasiveness, society has been having a predominant role due to the
fact that citizens use the Internet not only to participate in provided
services, but also by providing new services. The impact of this active
participation is the consequence of two fundamental principles of Informatics
Sciences: i) a fast-paced evolution of Internet services and architectures; ii)
a wider interaction and immersion of the Internet user, as integrating part of
these services, and technologies.
It is within this context that the NEMPS doctoral programme has been developed.
NEMPS has as main goal to train individuals within the context of Informatics
Sciences, but with specific expertise that can assist in solving and deriving
innovation adequate to the Internet paradigms that are being raised due to the
empowerment of the Internet user. Such expertise is derived from two main
informatics sciences sub-areas: New Media and Pervasive Systems.
