[Europe] Erasmus Mundus Master Scholarship in Geospatial Technologies

The International Masters Program (Master of Science, M.Sc.) in Geospatial Technologies is a cooperation of

University of Münster (WWU ), Institute for Geoinformatics (ifgi ),
Universitat Jaume I (UJI ), Castellón, Dept. Information Systems (Lenguajes y Sistemas Informaticos) , Spain, and,
Universidade Nova de Lisboa (UNL ), Instituto Superior de Estatística e Gestão de Informação (ISEGI ), Lisboa, Portugal.


The three-semester Masters program will enrol up to 32 students per year. Students will attend the first semester in Lisbon or Castellón, the second semester in Münster. The third semester (Master thesis) can be performed at each of the three partner universities.




The first semester offers different learning paths, addressing the previous know-how and requirements of the students. The courses at UJI focus on the provision of know-how in informatics, new media, and GI basics. UNL provides modules in mathematics, data modelling, and GI basics.
The second semester at the WWU provides basic and advanced courses in GIScience. In addition, courses in additional key competencies (project management, research methods) are provided. Optional for selected courses is the alternative attendance of a summer school, organized by WWU, UJI, or UNL
The Master thesis in the third semester is closely linked to ongoing research projects of one of the partners. Depending on the resources, students can choose each of the three universities for performing the thesis. In case of not attending a semester at each partner university, the thesis will be supervized or co-supervized by the university not attended so far.
The Masters Program will start each year in the fall/winter semester. All courses will be provided in English language. The study program will start each year in the fall/winter semester. All courses will be provided in English language.

Based on the successful Master examination, the three universities will award the joint degree “Master of Science” (M.Sc.) with the adjunct “in Geospatial Technologies”.

The Masters program targets the qualification in many application areas of Geographic Information (GI), e.g., environmental planning, regional planning, logistics/traffic, marketing, energy provision, etc..

Therefore, the Masters Program targets life-long learning for graduates and professionals in the fields of geography, surveying, planning, local adminstration, etc., who are willing to acquire additional GI skills for applying them in their respective GI application area. Candidates who already studied GI programs will be given lower priority in admissions evaluation. Some of the major requirements for admission are:

Adaquate Bachelor degree (or Master degree)
English language proof (TOEFL 500 points)
High motivation
High-level achievements in previous academic and professional careers.
The European Commission provides stipends for 15-20 students and 3 scholars per year. These stipends are for applicants of third countries (excluding EU Member States or EEA-EFTA or candidate countries).

Bachelor Degree equivalent in fields related to earth science, environmental studies, land management, etc. (Master is not aimed at techies, but rather to provide technical skills to other professionals.)

GIS staff for DRR assessment in Papua - Oxfam GB

Oxfam GB is an international NGO working in over 70 countries to address poverty and suffering through supporting development, humanitarian and advocacy interventions.
In Indonesia, we currently work to improve the livelihoods of the poor, build participation in governance and save lives by delivering humanitarian assistance.

As part of its Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) work in Papua, Oxfam GB Indonesia is planning to conduct a Disaster Risk Assessment (DRA) in Papua and is looking for a GIS staff to take part in the assessment.


The main task of the GIS staff is to take part in an integrated disaster
risk assessment in Papua in two locations (Jayawijaya and Nabire). Papua
is one of the richest regions of Indonesia but which experience different
types of natural disasters. Drought, earthquakes, floods, diseases
outbreak disasters occur frequently in this region. The integrated
disaster risk assessment in Papua will be guided by the Hyogo Framework of
Action and give emphasis to understanding the public health and food
security and livelihoods situations, disaster management systems and
capacities, and the local knowledge, culture, values and beliefs in
relation to disaster hazards and community resilience to them and in a
gender perspective way.

Expected Result :

A. In general, the following types of data are requested as the
output of the GIS officer work:

Base & Hazard Related but not limited to:
Identification and data of Hazard on the disastrous phenomena (for
example, landslides, floods, earthquakes, malaria cholera epidemic, etc),
their location, zonation, frequency, intensity, magnitude, distribution,
etc.
Basic Data on the environment in which the disastrous events might take
place: route spread of diseases, topography, geology, geomorphology,
hydrology : water quality, land use/Land Cover, Agriculture & food
production, Agro-ecology, rain intensity, population (segregated) ,
population density, etc
Identifcation and data of Environmental degradation (Location, Zone,
Intensity): Many disasters are either caused or exacerbated by
environmental degradation for example, deforestation leads to rapid runoff
which contributes to flooding.
War and civil strife: War and civil strife are regarded as hazards or
extreme events that produce disasters or call away the attention to hazard
risk. War and civil strife often cause the displacement of the population.
The causal factors of war and civil strife include competition for scarce
resources, religious or ethnic intolerance, and ideological differences.
Vulnerability Related but not limited to :

Locations distribution, zoning of three point above accordingly to risk
magnitudes, population details and assets at risk.
Lack of awareness and information: Disasters can also occur when people
