Cette notice doit vous permettre de mieux comprendre le périmètre de l’appel à candidatures et de bien remplir votre dossier de demande de bourse. Lisez-la attentivement avant d’entamer vos démarches.

1. 1. Les bourses de l’Ambassade de France

Deux types de bourses sont attribués par l’Ambassade de France au Cambodge :

-          Les bourses de Master ou équivalent (diplôme de grande école ou d’école d’application), de 9 à 24 mois suivant la durée de la scolarité.

-          Les bourses de Doctorat, de 3 à 27 mois, qui peuvent s’étendre jusqu’à 3 ans sous la forme de trois séjours dont la durée dépend des besoins de la recherche.

Dans la majorité des cas, l’Ambassade prend en charge :

-          une allocation d’entretien dont le montant dépend du niveau d’études,

-          un voyage aller-retour,

-          l’exonération des frais d’inscription,

-          la couverture sociale,

Le statut d’étudiant boursier du gouvernement français est accordé, facilitant l’accès aux logements universitaires publics.

Pour chacune des bourses, trois catégories existent ; chacune d’elles correspondant à un montant d’indemnité :

-          bourse de couverture sociale : elle couvre uniquement les frais d’inscription et de sécurité sociale lors du séjour en France, aucune indemnité n’est versée à l’étudiant.

-          bourse à taux réduit : l’indemnité mensuelle perçue est partielle, environ 300 € en Master 1 et 460 € en Master 2 et Doctorat.

-          bourse à taux plein : l’indemnité mensuelle perçue est maximale, environ 600 € en Master 1 et 767 € en Master 2 et Doctorat.

La bourse de couverture sociale et celle à taux réduit ne permettent pas, à elles seules, de couvrir les coûts du séjour en France. Il est donc nécessaire de disposer de ressources complémentaires (famille ou bourse autre). Cet apport est à préciser sur le formulaire.

1. 2. L’éligibilité

Avant de remplir le dossier, le candidat doit vérifier qu’il répond aux critères d’éligibilité du programme de bourses de l’Ambassade.

a)      Etre de nationalité cambodgienne, issu d’une école ou d’une université cambodgienne ;

b)      Etre détenteur d’un diplôme cambodgien de niveau licence au moment du départ ;

c)      Justifier d’une très bonne connaissance et pratique du français (diplôme officiel à fournir : niveau DELF B2 ou diplôme décerné par un établissement supérieur français) ;

d)     Avoir un projet d’études de niveau Master et Doctorat ou équivalent ;

e)      Avoir entamé les démarches de demande d’inscription et d’équivalence auprès de la formation et de l’établissement choisi *.

f)       Etre candidat dans un des domaines prioritaires de la coopération : sciences de l’ingénieur, sciences fondamentales, agronomie, santé, droit, sciences économiques et management public, disciplines éducatives, linguistiques et littéraires, journalisme, tourisme, patrimoine, actions culturelles et audiovisuelles ;

g)      Avoir un projet professionnel au Cambodge ;

h)      Pour un fonctionnaire : avoir l’accord de sa hiérarchie.

* Le critère e) implique que des démarches de pré-inscription et de demande d’équivalence, si nécessaires, ont été entreprises. Le dossier de bourse ne correspond pas à un dossier d’inscription universitaire. Chaque candidat doit suivre deux démarches distinctes : d’une part, l’inscription administrative et pédagogique dans l’établissement d’enseignement supérieur et, d’autre part, la demande de bourse auprès de l’Ambassade.

Pour la démarche d’inscription, deux cas de figure se présentent :

-          Le candidat bénéficie d’un diplôme français et/ou d’un accord de coopération entre son établissement cambodgien et l’établissement français d’accueil. Dans ces conditions, l’inscription en France est grandement facilitée.

-          Il n’y a pas d’accord de coopération universitaire, auquel cas une inscription individuelle dans la formation choisie est à solliciter. Dans la majorité des cas, il faut formuler à l’établissement une demande de pré-inscription administrative et une demande d’équivalence de diplôme. Se renseigner précisément sur les conditions d’inscription des étudiants étrangers dans la formation retenue. Cette démarche est distincte de la demande de bourse.

Indiquer sur le dossier le premier choix. Cependant, afin d’augmenter les chances d’acceptation par un établissement, il est possible de faire une demande d’inscription auprès de plusieurs écoles ou universités.

Les dossiers ne répondant pas à ces pré-requis ne seront pas pris en compte. ×

1. 3. Le formulaire de demande de bourse

La première pièce du dossier à compléter est le formulaire de demande de bourse.

Pièces attachées au formulaire (reportez vous à la notice) :

* Curriculum Vitae

* Lettre de motivation

* Information sur la procédure d’inscription dans l’établissement : pré-inscription faite ou à venir, accord de coopération universitaire franco-cambodgien

* Copies certifiées conformes des diplômes et relevés de notes depuis le baccalauréat (inclus)

* Justificatif du niveau de français

- Lettre certifiant l’accord de la hiérarchie pour les fonctionnaires

- Projet de recherche (uniquement pour les doctorats)

1. 4. Les pièces du dossier

Outre le formulaire, le dossier comprend :

-          Curriculum Vitae

-          Lettre de motivation, incluant projet d’études et projet professionnel, ainsi qu’éventuellement des indications sur l’origine des ressources

-          Lettre d’explication de la procédure d’inscription suivie *

-          Copies traduites et certifiées conformes des diplômes et relevés de notes depuis le baccalauréat, inclus

-          Justificatif du niveau de français **

-          Pour les fonctionnaires, lettre certifiant l’accord de la hiérarchie

-          Pour une bourse de doctorat, projet de recherche et accord du directeur de thèse

De manière facultative, une ou deux (maximum) lettres de recommandation (professeur, employeur) peuvent être jointes.

* Deux cas se présentent :

-          Si le candidat dispose d’un diplôme français ou s’il existe un accord de coopération entre son établissement cambodgien et l’établissement français d’accueil, une attestation de l’établissement cambodgien doit être jointe.

-          Sinon, une demande d’inscription individuelle et d’équivalence dans la formation choisie sera fournie. Par conséquent, il est nécessaire de joindre les attestations et/ou les éléments montrant que les démarches sont abouties ou en cours. La pré-inscription n’est pas demandée de manière obligatoire, car elle n’est pas nécessaire dans tous les cas.

** En l’absence d’un accord de coopération universitaire, vérifier auprès de la formation quelles sont ses propres exigences de niveau de français ; ces exigences peuvent être plus sévères que celles de l’Ambassade.

Les dossiers incomplets ne seront pas évalués. ×

1. 5. Le dépôt du dossier

Le formulaire et les pièces du dossier devront être remis sous enveloppe, sur laquelle seront mentionnés les nom et prénom du candidat et le domaine de la candidature.

Le dépôt des dossiers devra se faire auprès de Mlle Mirana Randriananja, au Service de Coopération d’Action Culturelle de l’Ambassade de France au Cambodge, du lundi au vendredi de 8h30 à 12h et de 15h à 18h, sur rendez-vous uniquement.

La date limite de dépôt des dossiers est fixée au vendredi 19 mars 2010 à 17h. ×

1. 6. L’évaluation des dossiers et l’attribution des bourses

Après évaluation des dossiers, la sélection des boursiers relèvera d’un jury composé de spécialistes, généralistes et sectoriels, relevant d’institutions françaises, requis pour leurs connaissances et expériences des domaines et disciplines concernés. Celui-ci, présidé par le Conseiller de Coopération et d’Action Culturelle, se réunira au mois de mai 2010.

Les résultats seront publiés au cours du mois de juin 2010 sur le site internet www.francecambodge.org.

L’attribution définitive sera subordonnée à la réussite aux examens de fin d’année (obtention de la licence) et à l’acceptation de l’établissement d’accueil.

Research areas

The Erasmus Mundus Joint Doctorate in Interactive and Cognitive Environments offers a complete panorama of the aspects that characterize the target professional figure:

• Assistive Technologies for Health and Autonomous Living. This curriculum covers research and development of technologies for improving autonomy and independence of individuals, taking into account the needs of end users and their guardians. The professionals trained by this specialization will be prepared to introduce technologies that can assist people with disability or illness in their daily activities, developing a high capacity for analysis in order to understand not only technical-scientific but also socio-psychological aspects of their business;
• Network Embedded System. This specialization deals with various technological issues concerning embedded systems and networks of the future, which represent a very important basis for the development of many intelligent and pervasive applications. From a scientific-technical point of view, the course provides insights on topics such as simulations of networks, design of processors and embedded systems, communication networks and smart sensors;
• People Inspired Technologies. This specialization offers research and study applications in advanced methodologies and tools related to artificial intelligence, machine learning, simulation environments, HCI, psychology and safety. The program takes its inspiration from the need to integrate areas such as social sciences and humanities with information and communication technologies through a cross-disciplinary approach that is able to provide the students with a broad vision in the ICT domain;
• Designed Intelligence. The goal of a competency-centred curriculum such as Designed Intelligence is to facilitate and promote student learning. This is accomplished by creating an environment in which students are engaged in authentic learning activities and roles. Authentic in this context means derived from or similar to tasks and roles in the professional practice of designing. Performing these tasks and roles is not an end in itself. It is intended to generate a meaningful learning experience: learning to determine what to perform, how to achieve this performance and why to achieve this. The ‘how’ refers to competencies to be developed and the ‘why’ to the ultimate goals of all the generated learning experiences: integration into the overall competency of designing, growth as a designer, identity building and life-long learning;
• Multi-sensor Surveillance. Main activities related to this track will be related to the development of specific techniques for detecting, localizing and tracking multiple objects in cluttered scenes as well as study of novel algorithms for robust scene understanding using mobile and ptz cameras. Moreover, concerning the context of Data-Fusion, study and development of techniques and architectures will be part of students’ research activities, for instance, focusing on Graphical Models (Bayesian Networks, Multilevel Markov Random Fields, DEKFs). In particular, during their experience students will be able to acquire skills and knowledge which will reinforce their professional capabilities in a range of heterogeneous fields as sensor calibration techniques, scene modeling, process synchronization techniques, application dependent databases, system integration, remote information communication and methods for performance evaluation of surveillance systems.
