Erasmus Mundus Japan - Master of Science in Imaging and Light in Extended Reality (IMLEX Joint Master Degree Program)
The student will gain understanding and training in the imaging, rendering and lighting technologies that underpin extended reality (XR) technology together with the interactions of these with cognitive science and combine this with robotics, AI and other fields of research to become international people ready to deploy and apply extended reality technology in applications that can be established in society through this two and a half year Master's Studies program.
Program Features
- Study with successive visits to universities in Japan and two European countries (Finland, Belgium/France).
- Multiple degrees can be received in Japan and Europe.
- This educational program with international industry partnership includes corporate partners of Japan and Europe, enabling graduate research proposed by university and partners from the business world.
- Select between a concentration on lighting or a concentration on computational imaging.
Lighting concentration
- Study practical lighting design and new business model knowledge
- Adoption of virtual reality, mixed reality and augmented reality in order to add new dimensions to lighting design
- Adoption of cognitive scienctific approaches to reality
Imaging concentration
- Learning about computer rendering and imaging
- AI applications
- Adoption of smart imagiging, robotics and human-robot interaction combined with AI technology
