[General] PhD Position at University of Innsbruck

Thank you for spreading this new opening to potential candidates. (Please excuse any multiple postings) ============================================================= PhD Student Position in Physically-Based Simulation The newly founded Interactive Graphics and Simulation Group at the University of Innsbruck, Austria invites applications for the position of a PhD student in physically-based simulation, with an application in surgical simulation. We are seeking a motivated and talented PhD student with interest and skill in physically-based simulation and surgical simulators. The main focus will be on new approaches of interactive tissue deformation computation in medical training systems. There is a possibility for collaboration with an industrial partner in this framework. Candidates should have earned a Master or Diploma degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, or other related fields. Good knowledge in physically-based simulation is expected. In addition, some experience with surgical simulation is of advantage. Further, knowledge of virtual/augmented reality and computer haptics is also a plus. Experience and knowledge in C/C++ programming is expected, as well as a good level in English, both written and spoken. Candidates should send electronically an application with complete CV, grades and transcripts, relevant certificates, and links to relevant prior publications via email. The compiled material should be sent in PDF format to: <mailto:matthias.harders@uibk.ac.at> matthias.harders(a)uibk.ac.at We are looking forward to hearing from you. <http://igs.uibk.ac.at/igs_html/jobs.html> http://igs.uibk.ac.at/igs_html/jobs.html --- Matthias Harders Interactive Graphics and Simulation Group University of Innsbruck Austria <http://igs.uibk.ac.at/> http://igs.uibk.ac.at/
