Three Positions as Research Associate

in “Visualization”

(Salary Group 13 TV-L)

=====================================

=== Description of position ===

The newly established research group investigates novel visual 
representations of data. Leveraging interactive software solutions, we 
study foundations of visualization research and their application in 
practice.

You develop new visualization approaches, which you implement as 
interactive software system and evaluate in user studies. The 
publication of these approaches in renown journals and conferences gets 
you in touch with the international scientific community. Preparing and 
teaching courses is the basis for collaborating with undergraduate and 
graduate students.

We offer individual supervision of your research and appreciate good 
team collaboration. Considering your interests and background, we 
specify the precise scope of your research in joint discussion. Current 
research topics that you might contribute to are:

* Visualization of networks, hierarchies, and set structures

* Visualization of program behavior and software evolution

* Integration of text and visualization

* Computer-supported editing of data

* User studies for evaluating interactive systems

The positions as research associate (f/m) are to fill at the earliest 
date possible for three years, with a possibility for extension. They 
are full-time positions with an option for part time employment if 
desired (at least 50%). The employment provides the opportunity to 
qualify as a researcher and to submit a doctoral dissertation.

=== Your profile ===

You are fascinated by data visualization, enjoy creative thinking, and 
are eager to learn. Your abilities to solve complex problems enable you 
to think one step ahead. You enjoy working as part of a team and look 
forward to developing interactive software systems.

You graduated having good grades with a university degree of at least 8 
semesters in computer science or a related area, or are about to 
graduate within the next three months. Ideally, you already have 
previous experience in one of the following topics: visualization, 
human-computer interaction, software engineering, web development, media 
communication, visual perception and cognition. You communicate fluently 
in English and are willing to learn German.

* Positions start: at the earliest date possible

* Duration: 3 years

* Working time: full-time position

* Deadline for applications: January 27, 2017
