Canada : Vanier Canada Graduate Scholarships at University of
The Vanier CGS program aims to attract and retain world-class doctoral students by supporting students who demonstrate both leadership skills and a high standard of scholarly achievement in graduate studies.
Valued at $50,000 a year for three years, the Vanier is one of Canada’s most prestigious graduate awards.
The Vanier Scholarships support doctoral studies in the social sciences and humanities, natural sciences and engineering, and health-related fields.
Both Canadian and international students are eligible to apply.

Scholarships for MSc in Computer Science - Venice - Italy
The MSc program in Computer Science (www.unive.it/ msc-computer- science), offered by Università Ca' Foscari Venezia - Italy, takes two years of full-time study, and is suitable for students with diverse academic backgrounds.
The course unfolds into three semesters of full-time lectures and lab experience on practical exercises. During the last semester students work on an individual project and dissertation.
The program covers the theory and practice of a wide spectrum of fields in Computer Science and Information Technology.
Two suggested sub-programs, resulting from selecting a specific group of elective courses, are the following:
The (1) Information Sciences and Intelligent Systems sub-program, and the (2) Software Dependability and IT Security sub-program.
Candidates who hold a foreign degree, equivalent to a tree-year Bachelor degree or higher in Computer Science or related subject (Computer/Electroni c Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, Statistics, etc.), and are proficient in English, can apply.
Candidates can ask for a pre-evaluation of their qualification and school career before starting the official enrolment procedure.This pre-evaluation is particularly important for non-EU citizens residing abroad, who have to apply within an early deadline (Apr 30th), and then submit a further pre-enrolment application to an Italian Diplomatic Delegation for obtaining the Italian Visa.

Company sponsored PhD Program, Renault, France
Scholarship Summary: A Company sponsored PhD Program in Renault, France is available in the DELTA department. The thesis CIFRE is sponsored by Renault.
Proposal for PhD CIFRE Renault
The Department of Electronics and Automotive Advanced Technology (DELTA), Renault offers CIFRE entitled "Study of electrical insulation systems used in motor vehicles Electrical taking into account their specific environment, to ensure the desired life of the electric motor for future generation.
Background:
The current level of tension and its probable increase in the near future, the use of devices power electronics and the specific constraints they generate (as a voltage, steep edges, high frequencies, etc..), not to mention the operating conditions specific to the application (profiles mission thermal cycles, vibratory stress, etc) make the study of Electrical Insulation System (SIE) motors for electric vehicles (VE) a new field of investigation. Indeed, to ensure the duration Life sought, it is vital to understand the mechanisms of degradation of the dielectric insulation of cables, motor winding and power components. Among the risks, we must consider include:
- Breakdown between turns (same phase or different phases) and turns-frame;
- Failure of impedance of distribution lines accompanied by a sharp surge in response to reflections of Electromagnetic wave;
- Non-negligible parasitic capacitances and forehead steep causing a power surge at the entrance of the winding and intense use of the electrical insulation;
- Inhomogeneous distribution of tension in the coil.
Problem:
The whole question is at what level of exposure to risk of failure is the application. By this I mean, the voltage level is it - given a few peculiar "Inverter - can trigger mechanisms of insulation breakdown, discharge partial (DP) and corona discharge? The answer to that question the whole strategy of choice and design of electrical systems that will be used. As part of this work, we try to answer this question. She will consider innovative methods of detecting these phenomena, developed in a different context (aerospace, defense, rail) and seem particularly interesting (radio frequency detection). After studies at the Laboratory, will seek to deploy detection methods on an engine test bench consists of a Renault engine and its electronic
power.
Diploma: Engineer and / or bac + 5 Master 2 research
Preferred areas of expertise: Physics of plasmas, electromagnetism, electrical engineering, signal processing, electronics.
