Scholarship Carnegie Mellon - Portugal PhD program in Techno

We are looking for outstanding students to join the new interdisciplinary Ph.D. program in Technological Change and Entrepreneurship (TCE), developed jointly by Carnegie Mellon University (USA), FCEE-Católica, and IST-UTL. I would like to ask you to consider this initiative if you know students who might have the interest, academic potential, and international perspective to excel in such doctoral program.

The deadline for applications for students beginning in September 2008 has been extended to April 15. Early application is especially important to secure the available fellowships. The Ph.D. program is open to participants of all nationalities, and from a variety of disciplines, including engineering, science, economics and business.

This is an interdisciplinary program focused on technological change and entrepreneurship with a strong research focus, and a global perspective. Upon completion, participants will earn two degrees: one from Carnegie Mellon University, and one from the Technical University of Lisbon (UTL) and the Catholic University of Portugal (UCP). Students will spend year 1 in Lisbon and year 2 at Carnegie Mellon in Pittsburgh and be jointly advised by professors on both sides of the Atlantic.

Further information regarding the program can be found below, and online at www.icti.cmu.edu/tce/ <http://www.icti.cmu.edu/tce/> .

Please feel free to forward this email on to any interested students, as well as other colleagues, administrators, etc. who might know of, or be able to send this email on to, suitable applicants for the program.

Thanks for your help.

Regards,
