Presentation MVA

Background 

Set up in 1996, the second year MVA Masters , based at the Mathematics Department at ENS Cachan, is a programme unique in France.Every year since its establishment, it has prepared several dozen students from universities and grandes écoles for careers in public and private research in applied mathematics for the processing of data, images and signals.

Objectives

The MVA Masters programme provides an advanced mathematical and experimental training in analysis, PDEs, geometry, probability and statistics, employed in contemporary research on vision, hearing, learning and information theory, biological and medical imaging.

Benefits 

For 10 years, fast-growing application and research fields associated with the Masters course have attracted the interest of a growing number of computer scientists and mathematicians.The courses are taught by the most eminent specialists in each field and are combined with practical work to test the validity of the models and algorithms.

Career openings

Public research (University, CNRS, INRIA, CEA, CNES, INRA, ISPRA, LETI, etc.) and industrial research (Aérospatiale, Alcatel, Sagem, General Electric, Matra, Philips, Siemens, Thomson, Xerox, etc.).A placements forum with a wide range of opportunities is held at the end of December.The number of placements and PhD theses on offer in the public and private sectors each year far exceeds the number of students.
