<div>Are you looking to start or continue pursuing a PhD in data
visualization research? Come study with us at the University
of New Hampshire: Our Data Visualization Research Lab is
directed by Colin Ware and we are housed within the Center for
Coastal and Ocean Mapping, which provides us with endless new
visualization challenges! We develop highly-interactive
visualizations with a focus on understanding the underlying
human perceptual factors that make them effective at conveying
information and providing insight.<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We recently received funding for a new 5-year project:
ADEON, the Atlantic Deepwater Ecosystem Observatory Network, a
wide array of directional hydrophones located along the
Atlantic continental shelf that listens to sound from marine
life, shipping, etc. For this project, we have secured
multi-year funding to support a PhD student with a research
assistantship conducting data visualization research into the
massive amount of complex soundscape data being collected.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Students will also be exposed to a wide range of
visualization and interaction projects, including flow
visualization, stereoscopic 3D, augmented reality and virtual
reality, perceptual human factors studies, cartography, and
more.<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The ideal applicant would have excellent English writing
abilities, capable of programming in C++/C# and creating
interactive computer graphics using OpenGL/WebGL. Experience
with GIS systems or sound/spectral analysis are big pluses.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Interested students should email Professor Thomas
Butkiewicz at <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="mailto:tbutkiewicz@ccom.unh.edu">tbutkiewicz@ccom.unh.edu</a>
for more details. Applications are due by February 2017 for
enrollment in the Fall 2017 semester. Early start in May
2017 also possible.</div>
