ODCSSS 2006 overview

ODCSSS had 17 students in 2006 who selected from a list of 34 project proposals, as submitted by research investigators from both UCD and DCU. These projects were clustered in 4 themes of "Speech and Language Processing, Imaging and Visualisation, Pervasive Computing and Software Engineering".

Odysseus Projects

Listed below are the current available internship positions within ODCSSS. These are open to students attending universities within the EU. To see the list of past projects, please see 'Project Archive'.

Each student receives a weekly stipend of €300 which is paid as a tax-free scholarship, subject to satisfactory progress and participation in ODCSSS program activities. A contribution (up to €300) towards travel expenses is also available for international students.
