OBJECTIVES
Computer Vision (CV) is an emerging technology and VC's industry is growing tremendously year after year. The International Master in Computer Vision (IMCV) will enable graduates to acquire general knowledge of CV, as well as to ensure the ability to analyse the needs of a company in the scope of these techniques and to propose and apply the most suitable existing technological tools. IMCV offers the employer a professional profile oriented to computer vision, with theoretical and practical training in a variety of technical solutions that provides a solid and broad knowledge of the area and allows the professional to analyse the needs of a company and provide innovative solutions.

IMCV aims to offer an advanced training in CV, also offering transversal competences: to exercise the profession with an awareness of its human, economic, legal and ethical dimension; ability to work in team, organization and planning.

At IMCV, the student will acquire the capacity to: critically analyse and evaluate technologies and methodologies; analyse the needs of a company in the CV field and develop the best technological solution; identify theoretical results or new technologies with innovative potential and turn them into products and services useful to society; autonomous learning for specialization.

In terms of specific skills, the student is expected to be able to: know and apply the concepts, methodologies and technologies of image and video processing and analysis; to know and apply techniques of automatic learning and pattern recognition applied to CV; communicate and disseminate the results and conclusions of the research.

To achieve its goals, the Master is organized in five Modules:
-Image Processing and Analysis
-Visual Modelling and Recognition
-Machine Learning for Computer Vision
-Machine Vision for Industry and Engineering
-Biomedical Image Analysis and Applications

INTERNATIONAL PROGRAMME
IMCV is an international programme, being jointly offered by the University of Porto, the University of Santiago de Compostela, the University of Vigo, and the University of A Coruna. IMCV is totally offered in English.

DIPLOMA
After completing the 3 semesters of the programme, the graduate has access to a Master's degree in Computer Vision.

CAREER PROSPECTS
The curriculum of the Master in Computer Vision is anchored in real-world problems with a component of project development in the field of Computer Vision. IMCV aims to train highly specialized professionals capable of taking the lead in complex and large-scale Computer Vision projects with high-quality requirements.
