Ma thèse en 180 secondes est un concours destiné aux doctorants. Cette compétition a pour missions principales de mettre en valeur la relève scientifique, de révéler une capacité à vulgariser des travaux de recherche, de sensibiliser à l'importance du dialogue science-société, et, in fine, de favoriser l'insertion professionnelle des doctorants.
Ce concours est organisé par les universités volontaires en région avec l'appui des délégations régionales du CNRS ; la CPU et le CNRS, qui chapeautent l'évènement, organiseront la finale nationale qui désignera les lauréats français qui défendront notre pays lors de la finale internationale au Québec.

By Katherine Forestier. Massive open online courses are seen as a game-changer in education. But they worry the establishment, even as more universities rush to introduce them, writes Katherine Forestier.
The numbers, at least, are massive. One million users signed up to 16 University of Pennsylvania online courses; about 83,000 for the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology's course "The science of gastronomy" and 23,000 for Chinese University's "The role of renminbi in the international monetary system".
No lecturer could ever imagine reaching out to so many students, unless they double as a television star like Manchester University's physicist Brian Cox. Massive open online courses, or Moocs, are being heralded as a game-changer in higher education by the likes of Simon Marginson, the Australian higher education guru now based at the Institute of Education in London, or as a tsunami sweeping through the sector, by Li Fei, vice-president at Wuhan University.

Students and university staff from Palestinian Territories, Jordan, Lebanon and Syria have until 22 January to apply for grant scholarships for study in Europe under the Erasmus Mundus Phoenix project. Mobilities will start to take place in August/September 2014 and nationals from the Middle East countries who are in particularly vulnerable situations, for social and political reasons, such as refugees and internally-displaced people are one of the key targets of the project.
According to the Enpi website (www.enpi-info.eu) a total of 150 scholarships are available for undergraduate, master, PhD students, post-doctorate and also for staff members (academic and administrative) to undertake a mobility period or obtain a full degree in Europe. They include a monthly allowance, travel, insurance and participation costs. Coordinated by the University of Almeria (Spain), PHOENIX is a project funded with the support of the Erasmus Mundus-Action 2 Programme of the European Commission. More...

By Maria Snytkova. Modern Russia lacks personnel, and there is no place to create them. The Russian labor market is flooded with poorly educated managers, and professions that require knowledge and responsibility are not popular. In order to encourage potential engineers, doctors and scientists to not work as managers, the authorities decided to pay them to study abroad.
Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a decree aimed at strengthening the human resource capacity of the country. To improve the situation with the lack of specialists in such important for any country professions as engineers, doctors, scientists, and so on, it was decided to stimulate Russian students by sending them to graduate schools abroad. Students who earned bachelor's degrees in Russian universities may enter leading universities included in the three world rankings (The Times Higher Education, Shanghai University and Quacquarelli Symonds), and be eligible for financial support from the government. There is only one caveat - after graduation they must go home and find a job. More...

Just a couple of years ago, 145,900 foreign students were studying in Russia. Today, that figure is rising. More...
