This position is for an Early Stage Researcher (ESR) in an EU-FP7 Marie Curie Actions Initial Training Network (ITN) called DIVA: Data Intensive Visualization and Analysis. The project focuses on structured and collaborative research and teaching activities in DIVA methodologies in data-driven science and technology application domains. It involves three academic institutions (University of Zürich, University of Rostock, and Chalmers University of Technology), one research lab (CRS4), and two industrial partners (Diginext and Holografika).

Study Subject(s):Computer Science: HCI and Visualization
Course Level:PhD
Provider: Chalmers University of Technology
Can be taken at: Sweden
No Open for International Students

Eligibility:
An MSc degree in computer science, computer engineering, or a closely related area from a research university is required to enter the PhD program. Prospective candidates should have an excellent background in computer science and HCI, as well as strong mathematical skills and a good knowledge of computer graphics. Exposure to user interface design and development is also preferred. As for all PhD studies, a genuine interest and curiosity in the subject matter and excellent analytical and communication skills, both verbal and written, are needed. Furthermore, since the research normally involves developing and testing analytical techniques, good programming skills are important.
