PhD Assistantship Opportunities in Computer Science at the University of Vermont

The Department of Computer Science (http://www.cs.uvm.edu) at UVM has open assistantship positions for PhD studies in 2006-07, in the form of Graduate Research Assistantships (GRAs) and Graduate Teaching Assistantships (GTAs). These assistantships are for incoming students studying towards the PhD degree in Computer Science. The Department offers fields of study in both traditional areas and interdisciplinary areas such as bioinformatics and ecological & environmental modeling. Our faculty is involved in the forefront of research in computational biology, data mining, and distributed systems.

Our faculty in Computer Science participates in various interdisciplinary research activities involving on-campus entities such as the UVM College of Medicine (https://www.med.uvm.edu), the UVM Bioinformatics Core (http://bioinformatics.uvm.edu/bioinformatics.html) and the Gund Institute for Ecological Economics (http://www.uvm.edu/giee/). We encourage applicants who are interested in and have a strong background in interdisciplinary studies. We have interdisciplinary GRAs specially designated for PhD students who will be involved in interdisciplinary areas.

QUALIFICATIONS:

The successful applicants must possess a Bachelor's degree and show satisfactory test scores on the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) general section. International applicants must submit a TOEFL test score (minimum 600 required). Applicants with a BS degree in a field other than Computer Science are especially encouraged to apply for the interdisciplinary GRA positions.
