*Information and Communication Technology for Development*

*A track of the Master's in Technology, Media and Society*

If you are interested in the field of Information and Communication 
Technology for Development (ICTD), then this scholarship opportunity 
will be of interest.

The ICTD master's program at the University of Colorado Boulder invites 
applications from qualified and highly-motivated candidates interested 
in leveraging information and communication technology for underserved 
communities. Student scholarships include 100 percent and 50 percent 
tuition waivers for the first year of the two-year program.

The only ICTD degree offered through a U.S. university, the program 
equips students to identify problems that can be effectively addressed 
through technology, then it supports them as they cultivate the skills 
to develop and implement solutions that are appropriate to the 
sociological, economic and cultural environment.

The master of science, earned through the College of Engineering and 
Applied Science, offers several benefits:

  * A diverse cohort of peers and renowned faculty in ICTD and emerging
    technologies
  * A semester-long practicum working with a non-governmental
    organization, non-profit, or government agency implementing ICTD
    projects
  * Technology electives in emerging and promising technologies (GIS,
    Mobile App Development & Software Engineering, HCI, Data Science,
    ICT Spectrum Policy)
  * Competitive fee structure, compared to most peer programs

Consideration will be given to applicants best prepared to deliver 
solutions for ICTD challenges. Minimum qualifications include the following:

  * Two years' experience working in government, design, engineering,
    NGO or a related field
  * Bachelor's degree in a social science, science, design, engineering,
    or related field
  * Demonstrated technical literacy and multidisciplinary interests.
  * Applicants must be prepared to submit a portfolio/set of project
    descriptions.

Alumni of the program have gone on to work for a wide range of global 
technology companies, NGOs and governmental organizations, including 
Google Earth Outreach, USAID's Global Development Lab and Ashoka 
Changemakers (more employers listed *here* 
<http://atlas.colorado.edu/programs/ictd-track/ictd-alumni-job-placement/>). 
Organizations where Students practicums sites have included Zidisha 
Microfinance in Kenya, Elephant Energy in Namibia, and Inveneo in Haiti.
