Keuntungan study di Swedia

No Comments

- Support finansial yang melimpah untuk riset. Alokasi Dana riset Swedia tertinggi untuk negara maju. Anda akan mendapat kesempatan sangat luas untuk mengikuti konferensi dengan biaya universitas dan support untuk pendanaan riset dengan persayaratan tertentu.

- Untuk bidang Sains dan Teknologi, kerjasama antara universitas dan sektor swasta sangat erat. Biasanya setiap laboratorium unversitas terkemuka memiliki afiliasi dengan perusahaan Swasta. i.e di bidang Farmasi dan kedokteran, Gotheburg Universiteit dan Karolinska Institute memiliki kolaborasi dengan Astra Zeneca.

Di Chalmers UT, jurusan logistik dan transport dengan Schenker dan Volvo, jurusan Quality Science dengan SKF, di KTH jurusan Telecommunciation dengan Ericsson. Melalui kolaborasi tersebut peluang untuk riset dengan 'real case' sangat terbuka, termasuk bekerjasama dengan Industrial Doktorand (pegawai perusahaan yang di tugas
belajarkan di universitas) . Pimpinan perusahaan terkemuka juga seringkali diminta memberikan kuliah.

- Lingkungan pendidikan yang egaliter dan tidak feodal. Disini semua professor akan meminta anda memanggil dengan nama kecil, tanpa embel-embel apapun. Setiap kelas memiliki pengawas yang dipilih sendiri oleh siswa dalam kelas. Setiap pengawas berhak memberi masukan atau komplain pada pengajar. Penilaian juga diberikan secara
transparan, termasuk hak untuk keberatan jika anda merasa diperlakukan tidak adil.

Dalam kehidupan sehari-hari, Swedia sangat menjunjung tinggi prinsip egaliter. Sikap rasialis dan diskriminatif diancam dengan hukuman yang tegas, sehingga sikap rasis, baik gender, etnic maupun agama sangat sulit sekali dijumpai. Sikap kekeluargaan juga sangat dijunjung tinggi.

- Pendidikan memiliki nuansa yang multidisipliner. Anda bisa mengambil kelas di jurusan yang berbeda dengan bidang yang anda tempuh sepanjang diijinkan oleh supervisor.

- Swedia menerapkan Visa Schengen, artinya dengan memiliki visa Swedia anda bebas berkunjung ke semua negara Eropa yang menerima visa Schengen.

Kuliah di Belgia dan Belanda

Posted on | Selasa, 23 Desember 2008 | 1 Comment

Beberapa universitas di Belgia (U ghent dan U hasselt) telah menerapkan peraturan baru utk biaya kuliah Program Master.
Bagi student yang berasal dari negara2 berkembang spt indonesia, hanya diwajibkan untuk membayar uang kuliah sebesar 80 euro pertahun untuk program Master.
Di universitas Hasselt, terdapat 3 major international master program:
1. Master of Management
2. Master of Statistics
-Applied Statistics
-Biostatistics
-Bioinformatics
3. Master in Transportation Sciences

Namun hanya Master of Statistics saja dimana berlaku pengurangan tuition fee untuk student dari negara2 berkembang (80 euro/th). Untuk universitas Gent, pilihan program lebih banyak dan penjelasan tentang tuition fee dapat dilihat di sini

Untuk daftar master program bisa dilihat di sini
Proses aplikasi utk mendapatkan keringanan biaya tsb mudah saja. Pertama2 kita
aplikasi dahulu untuk diterima di program study yg diinginkan dan kemudian setelah diterima ajukan permohonan ke pihak universitas untuk pengurangan biayanya. Untuk di uHasselt, jika kita dari negara2 berkembang akan otomatis diberi keringanan.
Info lain ttg pendidikan di Belgia:
Biaya pendidikan di belgia paling murah dibandingkan negara2 di sekitarnya spt Belanda dimana untuk program master berkisar 5000 hingga diatas 10.000 euro pertahun. Di belgia, selain biaya murah ( dari mulai 560 euro/thn hingga sekitar 5000euro/ thn, namun rata2 biaya perkuliahan sekitar 1500euro/th) , tuition fee utk hampir semua program studi tidak dibedakan bagi student dari luar maupun dari negara2 EU (European Union) .
Terlebih lagi biaya hidup bisa dibilang lebih murah dari negara tetangga Belanda.
Berikut rincian living cost di Belgia:
* Student room 250 -400 euro utk di brussels, dan diluar brussels : 150-250 euro/bln.
Utk akomodasi diatas hanya utk 1 org student. Bagi yg ingin membawa keluarga tidak diperbolehkan menggunakan student room dan diharuskan menyewa appartement/ studio. Untuk sewa apartement (bukan student room)berkisar 350-550 utk 1 sleeping room, blm termasuk biaya lain2. Utk biaya listrik, gas, internet, air, asuransi apartemen minimum 200 euro.
* Makan (masak sendiri) : 250-350 euro.
* Transportasi: Biasanya para student menggunakan sepeda sebagai moda transportasi ,
namun in case harus pergi dengan bis juga bisa dibilang murah di belgia, abodement utk bis sekitar 25/bln, di beberapa kota spt leuven tuition fee sudah termasuk biaya transportasi dalam kota bagi student,khusus kota hasselt semua public transportation gratis.
* Buku2: 250-400 euro/thn, biasanya buku2 (text book) sudah tersedia di perpustakaan, tinggal course note saja yang harus beli (tips: bisa cari “fosil2” angkatan2 sebelumnya).
* Asuransi kesehatan sekitar 40 euro/ th utk student (sangat murah dibandingkan Belanda yg berkisar 50-100 euro/bln).
Keterangan lebih lanjut living cost di Hasselt ada di sini:

Untuk beasiswa ke belgia sebenarnya banyak peluang meski tidak sebanyak di belanda dimana stuned memberi beasiswa kpd 200 org student indonesia.
Berikut beberapa program beasiswa yang diberikan untuk studi di Belgia:
1. Vliruos Scholarship: Beasiswa yang diberikan oleh konsorsium dari 6 universitas di Flemish Region (Region berbahasa belanda). Beasiswa diberikan untuk Training
program (ITP) dan Master program (ICP). Karena memang difokuskan untuk student yang berasal dari negara2 afrika, setiap tahun hanya sekitar 5-10 student dari indonesia memperoleh beasiswa ini. Info lebih lanjut bisa dilihat di sini:
2. Erasmus mundus sholarship: Jumlah student dari Indonesia yang mendapatkan beasiswa ini lebih banyak dari vlir dan tiap tahun jumlahnya meningkat. Info lebih lanjut di sini atau di sini
3. CUD scholarship program. Program beasiswa yang diberikan oleh konsorsium universitas2 di daerah walloni (region berbahasa perancis). Belum terlalu banyak student dari Indonesia yang mendapatkan beasiswa ini. klik Info
4. Beasiswa dari universitas. Ada beberapa universitas yang menyediakan beasiswa bagi student baik dari eropa maupun luar eropa. namun jumlah penerimanya sedikit. Untuk mengetahui beasiswa ini, hubungin professor dimana anda ingin melanjutkan studi
dan mintalah saran dan info tentang kemungkinan untuk memperoleh beasiswa baik dari universitas maupun dari luar universitas.
Berikut ada tambahan informasi ttg beasiswa dari Agung di U Gent:
Univ Ghent juga menyediakan beasiswa untk master tahun kedua. Syarat nya kurang lebih : nilai mata kuliah pada tahun pertama, dan korelasi bidang pekerjaan kita dengan kuliah yg diambil. Beasiswa ini biasanya diikuti oleh mhs2 yg pada tahun pertama berkuliah di Ghent dengan biaya sendiri dan istri/suami mereka telah terlebih
dahulu mendapat beasiswa dari VLIR utk berkuliah di Ghent. Besar beasiswa kurang lebih 800 euro. Jatah pertahun adalah 10 orang, dan tahun kemarin kira2 yg mendaftar sebanyak 100 orang.
Untuk lebih jelasnya tetang sistem pendidikan di belgia dapat dilihat di sini
Berikut daftar universitas2 di Belgia:
· Catholic University of Louvain
· Katholieke Universiteit Leuven
· University of Hasselt
· Université Libre de Bruxelles
· University of Antwerp
· University of Ghent
· University of Liège
· University of Namur
· Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Untuk mencari part time job disini tidak terlalu mudah, tapi banyak kerja sampingan bagi student, spt bekerja di pabrik, restorant, perkebunan (liat di sini)dll. Namun banyak kendala dikarenakan faktor bahasa, mengingat Belgia memiliki 3 bahasa nasional (Netherlands, French, and German). Dan sedikit berbeda dengan di Australia dan UK, untuk istri/suami dari student yang ikut menemani kesini, tidak diperbolehkan untuk bekerja (secara legal..).

Selamat berjuang..!!

PhD Position in Database Integration

No Comments

PhD Position in Database Integration

The Faculty of Business Administration at Memorial University of Newfoundland is inviting applications for a PhD in Information Systems with an emphasis on database integration. The project is supported by a grant from the National Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC).

Project Description:

Database integration is a process with multiple steps, leading from the identification of the databases to the testing of the integrated system. The central step of this process is the identification of database elements that are similar to each other. This step is called schema matching. Human users perceive schema-matching methods as successful when they match database elements according to the same similarity criteria that the users would apply.

Many automatic software-supported
schema-matching methods have been proposed, using a range of different
notions of similarity. However, existing research has paid little
attention to empirical work: There is little knowledge of how human data
integrators judge the similarity of database elements. A recent study
has shown that a "one-size-fits- all" approach does not apply and that
human notions of similarity are strongly affected by the database
integration context. The proposed research is a study to systematically
examine how human database integrators carry out schema matching. This
knowledge will then be applied to implement improved schema matching
methods.

Application Criteria:

The applicant will have a Bachelor (Hon) or Master's degree and strong
interest and background in information systems, computer science, or
cognitive science with knowledge of databases or knowledge
representation. Interest (and preferably experience) in both technical
and empirical research is required.
Applications must meet the regular admission criteria and will undergo
the regular admissions process for the PhD program.
(http://www.business .mun.ca/programs /PhD/phd_ overview. php)

Funding:

The Faculty of Business Administration will provide support to all
admitted students for a period of four years. The level of support will
be competitive with that offered by other Canadian universities, and may
consist of a combination of grant, research assistantship, and teaching
assistantship.

Information and Application:

The deadline for applications is March 1. Late applications may be considered as time and resources permit. Please contact Dr. Joerg Evermann at jevermann@mun. ca for further information about the project. Information about the PhD program and the application procedure can be found here

How to Win a Scholarship Application

No Comments

To win a scholarship application you need a true strategy. The students that win the most scholarships may not have more positive qualities than you, but they use the following strategy to get noticed by the scholarship committees:

Get Prepared:

Get letters of recommendation from teachers or guidance counselor or leaders in your community. Choose these wisely (make copies).

Get a copy of your high school or college transcript (make copies).

Get involved in your community or in school activities or in your church. If your time is limited due to personal circumstances, working to help with family expenses is also an advantage.

Start writing an essay about your goals and what you have done to date to achieve them. Think about what makes you unique.

Get a picture of yourself. A school picture is perfect. Anything smaller than a wallet size head shot, will do.

Buy some clear plastic binders.

The goal here is to have numerous packages made up ahead of time, ready to submit to the various scholarship committees.
The package will include:

* a clear plastic binder and within the package
* the scholarship application ( you will have to insert this later when you have received each individual application)
* followed by an essay that gets you noticed
* followed by your transcript (some scholarships do not require this, but if it’s impressive, send it)
* followed by letters of recommendation and then
* place you picture in the front inside cover(on top of the application) in the lower left hand corner (this is not a requirement, but it helps to put a face to the person, for the scholarship committee deciding who receives the awards)

Get Organized:

Begin researching scholarships that match your criteria. Consider using a scholarship search service, like our service - infoBeasiswa.net

Once you have the scholarships for which you want to apply, keep track of the deadlines.

Create a chart to keep on top of all dates.

The chart should include:

* Scholarship name and phone number
* Date application must be received by scholarship committee
* Date you requested the application
* Date you received the application
* Date application with above package was mailed
* Date you called the Scholarship Agency to verify they received your application package

Get Noticed:

As important as being prepared and organized, it is equally important that you have an essay that gets you noticed.

Even if you feel you master the english language, your essay should be critique by someone who has experience in essay writing.

Ask an english professor to review your essay or consider using an essay editing service.

The impact of voluntary principals and agents on npo governance and performance: a theoretical study

This study's aim is to develop micro-economic models of organisational behaviour explicitly taking the presence of volunteers into consideration. Therefore, the researcher will be selected on the basis of the assessment of her/his thorough knowledge of (and preferably experience in) theoretical micro-economics.
The models to be developed fit into the aforementioned principal-agent framework (see Bénabou and Tirole (2003) as an example of the approach to be taken), and will depart from the confrontation of organisational and individual utility functions. Important arguments in the individual utility functions will be the effort of the volunteer, her attachment to the organisational goals and her attachment to the clients’ goals (for the introduction of this distinction, see our previous work in Caers et al. (2006b)), her inclination to shirk, and the possibility of alternative activities. The impact on organisational performance will be analytically assessed. Given the expected amount of analytical difficulties to be met due to the complexity of the utility functions involved (see also Caers et al., 2005, 2006a), the modelling effort is planned to gradually evolve from simpler cases to more realistic ones, as is traditional for this kind of work. In the next paragraphs we describe a preliminary structure of this work.

The first year, after having reviewed the literature, the ‘simpler’ models will be constructed. We will model organisations with only operational volunteers (the other categories of persons involved being professionals) , then with only managerial volunteers, and then with only voluntary board members. These first models will concentrate on the agency costs without bonding and monitoring, which will be introduced
later on. Volunteers will be modelled as utility maximisers, therefore not necessarily exclusively pursuing organisational goals. Agency costs then are the differences between the performance levels obtained, and the ‘first best’ levels. Clearly, performance based reward schemes, which play an important role in the governance literature on profit organisations, are not relevant here.

In the second year, we will first introduce bonding and monitoring in the models developed in the first year, monitoring reflecting essential aspects of organisational governance. Furthermore, we will also consider volunteers still to be present at only one level in the organisation, but now together with paid staff members. Also, models with only volunteers at two of the three levels described above will be conceived.

In year three the most comprehensive models will be derived: volunteers at all levels, together with professionals at all levels, leading to a set of empirically testable hypotheses, to be verified in the fourth year, at least within one large organisation grouping both paid staff members and volunteers at all levels.
