Diogo Gomes BlogMaster of Science in Information Networking
Just to let everyone know that MSIN (Master of Science in Information Networking) program by Univ. Aveiro and Carnegie Mellon University, is accepting applications. Please note that although the program is very expensive there are scholarships. As a hint for people looking for jobs: ALL of our students have obtained stable positions in major Portuguese Telecom Operators in the end of the program. Here is some institutional information:
MSIN is a breakthrough in post-graduate technical education, since it combines technical knowledge and management entrepreneurship with professional solutions.
The Aveiro MSIN program builds upon student’s technical backgrounds to give a broadened perspective and tactical expertise required to achieve leadership in the quickly developing fields of information technology and networking. Coursework takes place at the University of Aveiro and uses a hybrid distributed education format that combines locally taught courses with courses delivered from Carnegie Mellon University via interactive video conferencing technologies.

Hum, i was under the idea that MSIN was free..
What’s the tuition?

It is far from free (thousands of euros, not sure about the exact value).
The idea you get it is free come from the schoolarships that are available to students, that not only pay for the tuitions but also pay for a monthly “wage”.
The catch ? If you can call that a catch…
- You get a 5 year contract with the company that payed your degree!
