[Infovis] PhD studentship in Information Visualization at Newcastle University - Extended deadline 20th Dec

[Sara Fernstad]

Good afternoon everyone!


We are advertising a fully funded PhD studentship (covering UK/EU tuition fees + stipend) in Visualization of Heterogeneous Multi-source Data at Newcastle University, UK.

Within the project you will develop and implement state-of-the-art visualization methods to support analysis of diverse multi-source data. The project can be adapted based on the interests of the student and may focus on one or several areas of relevance, including for instance:

  *   Visual representation of heterogeneous data (numerical, categorical, text, networks…)
  *   Visual representation of correlation and other relationships across multiple heterogeneous datasets
  *   Visual integration and coordination of data at different levels of detail
  *   Visual representation and analysis of the uncertainty generated through the combination of diverse data from different sources
  *   Visual analysis of diverse data on small display devices.

Further detail on the project and how to apply is available here: http://www.ncl.ac.uk/postgraduate/funding/sources/ukeustudents/cs063.html
The deadline for applications has been extended to 20th of December.


This studentship will give you the opportunity to work as part of a dynamic research group with a broad focus on Data Science. The School of Computing was ranked #1 in the UK for research impact in REF 2014. It hosts the EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Cloud Computing for Big Data as well as the National Innovation Centre for Data (http://www.ncl.ac.uk/press/news/2017/09/newnationalinnovationcenter/ ), and will be joining the Alan Turing Institute for data science (http://www.ncl.ac.uk/press/news/2017/11/turing/ ).
