Course overview
The Master of Science in Imaging and Light in Extended Reality (IMLEX) provides a multidisciplinary and innovative approach combining Imaging, Lighting and Information Technology. The objective is to educate students in advanced technologies, methodologies and practical applications with two goals: to improve the career prospects of graduates and to meet the needs of industry and society. Students will develop professional and social skills useful in both a European and Japanese cultural context. Graduates will have competences in: Extended reality (XR): Augmented, Mixed and Virtual Reality (AR, MR, VR), industrial environments with robots and complex elements, Imaging, Rendering and Lighting.
IMLEX is one of the first Erasmus Mundus Master Joint Degree Partnerships with Japan. The consortium consists of four full partner universities: University of Eastern Finland (UEF), Université Jean Monnet (UJM, France), KU Leuven (Belgium), and Toyohashi University of Technology (TUT, Japan). Each student will take studies in three partner universities.
