We are very pleased to announce that the EADS Technology Masters’ Awards will be administered again through the Royal Aeronautical Society’s Centennial Scholarship scheme in 2011.This is an exciting opportunity to gain support for your postgraduate studies and valuable work experience from one of the world’s leading aerospace companies and will provide a valuable foundation for your career in aerospace engineering. EADS is a global leader in aerospace, defence and related services. In 2009, the Group – comprising Airbus, Astrium, Cassidian and Eurocopter – generated revenues of EUR 42.8 billion and employed a workforce of more than 119,000.

EADS Technology Masters applications will be considered by the Centennial Scholarship Panel at the same time as other Centennial Scholarship applications. In addition, a representative from EADS will also consider the application and make recommendations to the Panel.The decision of the Panel and EADS nominated representative is final and the other guidelines and award conditions that accompany the Centennial Scholarship scheme.

Scholarship Application Deadline:27 May 2011.

Phd Position in Biomechanics and Engineering Design at K.U.Leuven, Netherlands

During minimally invasive (robotic) surgery (MIS), the surgeon cannot feel the forces he/she is exerting on the tissue, and is thus risking unwanted damage to the tissue. This PhD is part of an interdisciplinary project of which the ultimate goal is to impose safety margins on the surgical instruments to avoid tissue damage during robotic surgery. The focus lies on cardiovascular tissue.

This focus of this PhD will be to search for and/or design accurate models of cardiovascular tissue on the one hand, but fast models of this same tissue on the other hand. Accurate constitutive and finite element models are required to define the maximum allowable load a tissue can bear. On the other hand, fast models are required to estimate and apply these thresholds intraoperatively and thus in realtime during surgery. This research has computational as well as experimental aspects to it. There will be a close collaboration with cardiac surgeons, biotechnologists and the engineers of the division of production, machine design and automation.

Scholarship Application Deadline:2011-08-01
