Presentation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Every year since 2012, the B\u00e9zout Labex offers mobility scholarships<\/strong> for outstanding students who wish to study at the master\u2019s level in University Paris-Est in an integrated program combining mathematics and computer science: the \u201cB\u00e9zout excellence program<\/strong>.\u201d  For 2021-2022, thanks to the B\u00e9zout Labex and the SFRI Program GP-DS, we are able to expand the program and offer up to around 10 scholarships.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The B\u00e9zout excellence program combines courses, given either in English or in French, from two existing master\u2019s programs in mathematics<\/a> and computer science<\/a> (second year, a.k.a. \u201cM2\u201d). Each admitted student is enrolled in one track of one of these master\u2019s programs; interdisciplinarity is ensured by the fact that each student has to succeed in one or two courses from the other master. This offers the opportunity to acquire sought-after skills<\/strong> in both mathematics and computer science, which can be used in academia or industry<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In particular, a new mathematics and computer science track<\/a>, common to both master\u2019s programs, is specifically devoted to the interfaces between mathematics and computer science; all courses of this track are taught in English. As this track is already interdisciplinary, the students who choose this track do not have to follow any additional course (as an exception to the previous paragraph).  However, the other tracks of the mathematics and computer science master\u2019s programs are also open to the B\u00e9zout scholars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the French academic system, the M2 year is the last year of tuition.  The first two weeks are devoted to an intensive set of French classes, for the non-French-speaking students.  Then, most of the year is devoted to courses at the research level. Finally, an initiation to research (3 to 4 months in a research laboratory) is proposed, which constitutes an introduction to doctoral work before starting a thesis.  Under normal circumstances, each B\u00e9zout scholar will do his\/her initiation to research in one of the laboratories of the B\u00e9zout Labex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Intended audience and practicalities<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This one-year program is open to students who have completed a bachelor\u2019s degree in mathematics or computer science and have passed the first year of a master\u2019s or PhD program.  Women are particularly encouraged to apply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each scholar will receive around 1300 \u20ac\/month during 11 months (this support cannot be combined with any other financial help).  The program will pay the university registration fees for all the B\u00e9zout master\u2019s students enrolled in this scholarship program, who will only have to pay a mandatory 90 \u20ac (approx.) yearly fee for CVEC (contribution for life campus).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to apply<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Applying for 2021-2022 is possible from this webpage<\/a>.  The deadline is May 21, 2021<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We plan to hold two online presentations<\/strong> of the B\u00e9zout master\u2019s program and scholarships, followed by a session of questions and anwers (probably on Zoom):<\/p>\n\n\n\n
