Stage nella ricerca per studenti Master in visita - programma MaRS (2016-2025)

Dal 2016 al 2025 il programma Masters Research Scholarship (MaRS) ha offerto borse di studio per soggiorni di breve durata a studentesse e studenti Master, interessate/i a un periodo come visiting student presso la Facoltà di scienze informatiche, durante il quale lavorare su progetti di ricerca in corso presso la Facoltà.

Le studentesse e gli studenti che hanno preso parte al programma sono stati all'USI per un periodo fino a un semestre, contribuendo a un progetto di ricerca sotto la guida delle professoresse e dei professori della Facoltà, con l'obiettivo di capitalizzare l'esperienza fatta nel proprio lavoro di tesi presso la propria università di provenienza.
Ogni partecipante ha ricevuto CHF 5'000 come contributo alla copertura delle spese di viaggio, e vitto e alloggio per la durata della visita.

Hanno coordinato l'iniziativa il Prof. Fernando Pedone, il Prof. Patrick Eugster e il Prof. Robert Soulé.

Il programma MaRS è stato sponsorizzato dalla Fondazione Hasler.
