[Infovis] NASA Call for Interns

[Davidoff, Scott (US 397F)]

COME USE VISUALIZATION TO UNDERSTAND THE UNIVERSE
https://datavis.caltech.edu

 Create new ways to analyze planetary scale science data with the NASA JPL / Caltech / Art Center Data-to-Discovery summer visualization internship, a multi-disciplinary program for computer scientists and designers.

Students will develop creative, interactive visual analytic tools to support scientific research and engineering groups at JPL and Caltech. Multi-disciplinary student teams will merge methods from Human-Centered Design with computing, 3D graphics and user interfaces, to visualize real-world physical science data sets. Students will partner with active research projects to learn how they conduct research, and iteratively create and test tools to innovate their methods.

Program mentors create a collaborative studio bridging multiple projects that all students contribute to. The program offers experience crossing disciplinary boundaries, while solving hard, real-world problems with visualization. Projects have delivered prototype tools that have gone on to be used to drive rovers and look for alien life on Mars, and made contributions to top-tier academic research conferences.
