Data Semantics Laboratory directed by Pascal Hitzler and Michelle Cheatham Department of Computer Science and Engineering Wright State University Dayton, Ohio, USA The Data Semantics (DaSe) Lab at the Department of Computer Science at Wright State University seeks one or more PhD students to pursue research in applied or foundational aspects of Data Semantics, Semantic Web, Ontologies, Linked Data, Semantic Information Integration, Cybersecurity, Geo- or Earth Sciences. Funding includes a monthly stipend plus tuition costs. The DaSe Lab (directed by Michelle Cheatham and Pascal Hitzler, see http://www.michellecheatham.com/ and http://www.pascal-hitzler.de/ for more information) is an internationally prominent research group with focus on foundations and applications of Semantic Web technologies. Lab members primarily contribute to ongoing research projects, but occasionally also get involved in teaching and administrative tasks. The new students will likely focus on research topics related to ontology-based Data Science applications. Applicants need strong programming skills, including familiarity with a wide variety of data structures and comfort in integrating existing libraries into their programs. Additionally, applicants should have excellent communication skills and excel in team work. Intellectual curiosity, a wide range of interests, and the ability and stamina to pursue challenging long-term goals is required. It is preferable, but not required, that applicants had previous exposure to lab research topics. Applicants should send their application to daselab-jobs@googlegroups.com. It shall consist of a single pdf file containing a detailed curriculum vitae including grades, plus a cover letter in the email body which includes * GPA of all degrees completed or under progress, with explanations how to convert the grading system, if degree is from outside the U.S. * GRE score (both verbal and quantitative) or date when GRE score will be available * Scores of most recent English language tests if non-native English speaker. Applications which do not comply with these requirements may be ignored. Successful applicants must satisfy the formal requirements for pursuing a PhD degree in Computer Science at Wright State University, see http://cse.wright.edu/academic-program/phd-computer-science-and-engineering. Processing of applications will begin immediately and commence until positions are filled. We expect to make first decisions in April 2015. Please send applications and inquiries to daselab-jobs@googlegroups.com.
