Undergraduate Summer Research Internship in Psychology and/or HCI

Human and Computer Vision Laboratory (HCVLab)
Iowa State University -- Ames, Iowa

The HCVLab of Iowa State University is seeking to support talented and
motivated undergraduate students wishing to undertake a summer research
project in Psychology and/or Human Computer Interaction.

The HCVLab investigates how the human visual system receives, selects and
processes information in real-world and virtual environments. Our research
integrates knowledge from the fields of Psychology, Human Computer
Interaction and Computer Science. We use this knowledge to innovate
intelligent human computer interfaces and biologically inspired
technologies.

Applicants with research interest and experience in the following areas
will be preferred (roughly in order): human vision, eye movement control,
psychophysics, computational modeling, computer vision, image processing,
computer graphics, virtual reality.

Those interested in joining in the lab should be working towards their
bachelors in a field such as Psychology, Computer Science, Engineering,
Mathematics, or Neuroscience. The successful candidate will be a highly
motivated individual that has the ability to work independently. The
candidate should possess strong computer skills. The ability to program in
C, C++, Java, or Matlab is a plus.

Students will be eligible for competitive financial support that will
fully cover room and board as well as partial reimbursement of travel
expenses.

Interested students should visit http://hcvl.hci.iastate.edu to submit an
application.
