What is CIMET?

Color in Informatics and Media Technology is a European Commission^[1] funded two-year Erasmus Mundus masters degree programme offered since 2008 by a consortium of universities, including the University of Granada, Spain,^[2] the Jean Monnet University, France,^[3] the University of Joensuu, Finland,^[4] and the Gjøvik University College, Norway.^[5] The focus of this Erasmus Mundus programme lies in the innovative research and course work via trans-European mobility schemes.

The master course

The CIMET Master programme covers a wide range of areas such as color,^[6] photonics, computer vision and imaging science, computer science and multimedia technology. The programme objective is to educate students in advanced methodologies and models in computational color science. CIMET offers three areas of specialization: color imaging science, spectral color science and multimedia technology.

Mobility

Mobility is inherent to the CIMET programme; from northern to southern Europe, students approach varied studying, working and living environments challenging their adaptation, organizational and language skills.

Language policy

English is the official language of instruction and examination for CIMET. However, students are strongly recommended to take some mandatory host country language courses during their studies.
