PhD Position in "Internet of Things and Big Data" at Chalmers
PhD Position in "Internet of Things and Big Data" at Chalmers University of Technology, Gothenburg, Sweden
Application deadline: April 15, 2014
https://www.chalmers.se/en/about-chalmers/vacancies/Pages/default.aspx?rmpage=job&rmjob=1963
As PhD student you will join the Networks and Systems division
and work at the intersection of Internet of Things (IoT) and Big Data
Analysis. The Internet of Things enables an increasing connectivity of
everyday devices and objects. These connected devices provide us with
new insights into our daily life and we rely on Big Data Analysis to
extract these insights. The overall aim of this PhD position is to
develop new mechanisms and applications for the Internet of Things and
combine these with Big Data Analysis to enable, for example, sustainable
living in future, smart cities. A special focus shall be put on
Internet of Things at metropolitan-scale, information security and privacy, near real-time data-stream analysis and energy-efficient networks.
Your major responsibility as a PhD student is to pursue your
own doctoral studies. You are expected to develop your own scientific
concepts and communicate the results of your research verbally and in
writing. The position generally also includes teaching on Chalmers'
undergraduate level or performing other duties corresponding to 20 per
cent of working hours.
To qualify as a PhD student, you must have a master's level
degree corresponding to at least 240 higher education credits in
Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or in a related discipline. As
for all PhD studies, a genuine interest and curiosity in the subject
matter and excellent analytical and communication skills, both oral and
written, are needed.
The ideal candidate for the position has a strong background
in distributed and networked systems. Further background in cyber
physical systems, information security, or data science is helpful. You
may apply even if you have not completed your degree, but expect to do
so before the position starts. Knowledge of Swedish is not a
prerequisite for applying since English is our working language for
research, and we publish internationally. Both Swedish and English are
used in undergraduate courses. Our researchers and PhD students at the
department come from more than 30 different countries.
Salary for the position is as specified in Chalmers' general
agreement for PhD student positions. Currently the starting salary is
26,250SEK per month before tax. The position is limited to a maximum of
five years. The position is intended to start in summer 2014, but a
different start could also be arranged.
Gothenburg is often referred to as the "heart of Scandinavia".
