[England] White Rose Scholarship, Mechanical Engineering
[England] White Rose Scholarship, Mechanical Engineering
Characterisation of material and surface properties to improve functional, ergonomic and affective experiences in the home
Closing Date: 29th May 2009
Project supervisors:
Lead Supervisor: Dr Ray Holt, School of Mechanical Engineering, University of Leeds
Co-Supervisor: Dr Paul Cairns, Computer Science, University of York
Details of studentship: White Rose Studentships arise from a special relationship between the three White Rose Universities - University of Leeds, University of Sheffield and University of York. The studentship is collaborative in nature; each studentship involves supervisors from two of the White Rose Universities. The studentship commences full-time PhD study in September/October 2009 and is tenable for up to 3years, subject to satisfactory academic progress. The studentship provides academic fees at the UK/EU rate and an annual maintenance grant (£13,290 in Session 2009/10, to be increased in line with the standard research council maintenance grant). To be considered applicants should hold a 2i or better Bachelors degree in engineering or a related subject.
Details of project:
This project will investigate the role of material and texture in creating products that are both easy-to-use and desirable for older consumers, using the packaging and utensils encountered in the kitchen as a case study. This will explore three novel areas: balancing affective requirements against functional and ergonomic needs; the influence of environmental conditions on affective responses, and the use of different surface textures on different parts of a product to satisfy users varying requirements at different stages of use. The project will be carried out in three stages, involving work at both Leeds and York Universities:
1. Interview and observe users to determine their functional, ergonomic and affective requirements for packaging and utensils in the context of making a meal in the kitchen. This will be done through interviews and observational studies of users preparing a meal at the University of York's Responsive Home Lab.
2. Characterise material and surface properties of packaging and utensils in terms of affective responses.
Affective responses to the materials and textures used in the observational studies will be gathered at the University of Leeds' Affective Engineering lab. The properties of these materials and textures will be measured and characterised in terms of the affective responses that they evoke.
3. Propose and evaluate new combinations of material and texture for kitchen utensils and packaging which will improve performance against the identified requirements. The information gathered from the affective study will be used to propose new combinations of material and surface texture that offer an improved affective experience, which will be tested by creating prototype products and repeating the original observational study.
Training provision for student
The student will be based in the University of Leeds, which provides a professional development scheme for all its postgraduate students to identify and meet their training needs.

Closing Date: 29th May 2009
Project supervisors:
Lead Supervisor: Dr Ray Holt, School of Mechanical Engineering, University of Leeds
Co-Supervisor: Dr Paul Cairns, Computer Science, University of York
Details of studentship: White Rose Studentships arise from a special relationship between the three White Rose Universities - University of Leeds, University of Sheffield and University of York. The studentship is collaborative in nature; each studentship involves supervisors from two of the White Rose Universities. The studentship commences full-time PhD study in September/October 2009 and is tenable for up to 3years, subject to satisfactory academic progress. The studentship provides academic fees at the UK/EU rate and an annual maintenance grant (£13,290 in Session 2009/10, to be increased in line with the standard research council maintenance grant). To be considered applicants should hold a 2i or better Bachelors degree in engineering or a related subject.
Details of project:
This project will investigate the role of material and texture in creating products that are both easy-to-use and desirable for older consumers, using the packaging and utensils encountered in the kitchen as a case study. This will explore three novel areas: balancing affective requirements against functional and ergonomic needs; the influence of environmental conditions on affective responses, and the use of different surface textures on different parts of a product to satisfy users varying requirements at different stages of use. The project will be carried out in three stages, involving work at both Leeds and York Universities:
1. Interview and observe users to determine their functional, ergonomic and affective requirements for packaging and utensils in the context of making a meal in the kitchen. This will be done through interviews and observational studies of users preparing a meal at the University of York's Responsive Home Lab.
2. Characterise material and surface properties of packaging and utensils in terms of affective responses.
Affective responses to the materials and textures used in the observational studies will be gathered at the University of Leeds' Affective Engineering lab. The properties of these materials and textures will be measured and characterised in terms of the affective responses that they evoke.
3. Propose and evaluate new combinations of material and texture for kitchen utensils and packaging which will improve performance against the identified requirements. The information gathered from the affective study will be used to propose new combinations of material and surface texture that offer an improved affective experience, which will be tested by creating prototype products and repeating the original observational study.
Training provision for student
The student will be based in the University of Leeds, which provides a professional development scheme for all its postgraduate students to identify and meet their training needs.

[Germany] The Heinrich Böll Foundation Scholarship for (Under-)Graduate and PhD
[Germany] The Heinrich Böll Foundation Scholarship for (Under-)Graduate and PhD
The Heinrich Böll Foundation is part of the Green political movement that has developed worldwide as a response to the traditional politics of socialism, liberalism, and conservatism. Our main tenets are ecology and sustainability, democracy and human rights, self-determination and justice. We place particular emphasis on gender democracy, meaning social emancipation and equal rights for women and men. We are also committed to equal rights for cultural and ethnic minorities and to the societal and political participation of immigrants. Finally, we promote non-violence and proactive peace policies.
Who is Eligible?
A) German and foreign students
The Heinrich Böll Foundation awards scholarships to German and foreign students in keeping with the guidelines provided by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) and the Federal Foreign Office (AA).
The maintenance scholarships which are awarded to German citizens, EU citizens and students who have gained their university entrance qualifications from a German school will be calculated on the same basis as BAföG, depending on your parent's income and/or your own income and personal assets. Irrespective of this, an independent book grant of 80 € per month will be awarded to all successful applicants.
The following requirements apply to German citizens, EU citizens and students who have gained their university entrance qualifications from a German school:
You must be enrolled at a state-recognized university or college (e.g. Fachhochschule) in Germany at the time the scholarship payments begin. The foundation also grants scholarships for Master degree courses in other EU countries.
* Earliest application date: if you intend to enrol for a Bachelor or Masters degree, for a Diploma, Magister or State Examination, you can apply for a scholarship before your studies begin, but the earliest date for receiving payment will be the beginning of the first semester. We advise you to make your application in time for the start of your studies.
* Latest application date: within the prescribed maximum period of study you should still have at least four semesters before your final examinations, so that the foundation can support you for at least three semesters.
The following requirements apply to foreign applicants (except EU citizens) who wish to study in Germany:
* You must be enrolled at a state-recognized university or college (e.g. Fachhochschule) in Germany at the time the scholarship payments begin.
* You should provide proof that you have already graduated with an initial professional qualification. This programme mainly supports students aiming for a Masters degree.
* You need a good knowledge of German, and we kindly ask you to provide proof of your proficiency.
* Unfortunately, the current guidelines specify that we can not support foreign scholarship holders for stays abroad in third countries for more than four weeks.
The following requirements apply to all German and non-German students wishing to pursue a Masters degree or post-graduate studies:
* You should definitely apply for a scholarship before the start of your studies, in order to ensure long-term support and cooperation.
* The Heinrich Böll Foundation cannot award you a scholarship, if you are studying for a one-year Masters degree and were not previously supported by the foundation.
* Tuition fees for fee-paying courses in Germany cannot be financed by the Heinrich Böll Foundation.
B) German and foreign students for doctoral studies (PhD)
The Heinrich Böll Foundation awards scholarships to German and foreign doctoral students in keeping with the guidelines provided by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) and the Federal Foreign Office (AA).
If you are applying for a doctoral scholarship you must have either qualified at a state or state-recognized college or university in Germany for admission to doctoral studies, or you must have gained a degree at a foreign university and been accepted for doctoral studies by a college or university in Germany. If you are a foreign student, you must have a good knowledge of German, for which we require proof.

Happy New Year, 2009-2010 FAFSA
FAP893: Happy New Year, 2009-2010 FAFSA, free stuffJan 02, 2009FAP893: Happy New Year, 2009-2010 FAFSA, free stuff Listen now: Special Feature: 2009-2010 FAFSA The FAFSA for the 2009-2010 school year is now available! Make sure you file it as quickly and as accurately as possible, ideally very soon but no later than the end of the month. + Why you should file it + What you’ll need + Download our free FAFSA guide eBook to walk you through step by step + Many states have a College Goal Sunday coming up - they’re free and good - thanks to James Rodriguez of NY for pinging me about New York’s Mail Bag From Twitter, Beth asks: Is it true that I don’t actually need to have received my W2s in order to complete the FAFSA again this year? Absolutely true. You can estimate your finances and file a correction later - just indicate so on Questions 33 and 82 on the printed form, or online when it asks you if you will file a tax return, say you will file later. It’s important to file a correction later as things like actual income tax paid may vary from your estimate and give you more eligibility. Some schools say to wait to file because they don’t particularly want to process a second round of FAFSA data, but you should still file early.
