Hi,
The AI division at USC's Information Sciences Institute now has almost
140 researchers and other staff, but we're still expanding. This year
we are hiring at all levels (senior PhD, new PhD, MSc, bachelor,
undergraduate interns), and I am coordinating the search process.
AI at ISI is in the middle of a pretty explosive growth spurt. This is
the third year in a row of 10%-15% increase in the number of
researchers, and we see no sign of this coming to an end yet. We are
just about to start work on a new $28 million robotics research
contract from NASA.
So we're interested in people in a variety of areas. As you can see on
our web site <http://ai.isi.edu>, we have active research in natural
language, information agents, robotics, computer-aided education,
planning, knowledge bases, knowledge representation, the semantic web
and more. While not all areas are actively hiring right now, we will
not turn away an excellent candidate. Further, we are interested in
branching into new areas. We would consider any candidate that helps us
expand in new directions (such as machine learning, user interfaces,
uncertainty) a potential investment in our future.
I include a general announcement of our job openings below. I would
appreciate it very much if you could distribute it in your department.
If you have specific people in mind, please let me know and I'll be
happy to contact them, or tell them to contact me directly instead of
using the instructions in the announcement. People can also initiate
the process by emailing or calling a senior researcher in an ISI
project that interests them.
Let me know if your travels bring you to Los Angeles and you would like
to visit us. We have an on-going AI seminar series that we could invite
you to speak in, and we can also arrange meetings with researchers in
areas of interest to you.
Thanks,
Yigal

Job openings at
the University of Southern California's
Information Sciences Institute (ISI)
in Artificial Intelligence
http://ai.isi.edu
Dedicated to research and education in computer science and information
technology, ISI is home to more than one hundred researchers and PhD
students in Artificial Intelligence. ISI is located off campus in
Marina del Rey, a casual boating town connected by a bike path with
residential coastal cities from Santa Monica to Redondo Beach. ISI is
part of the USC School of Engineering. A number of ISI researchers are
also Research Faculty in the Department of Computer Science at USC, and
advise graduate students on directed research projects and
dissertations. Many PhD students at USC complete their degrees while
working as research assistants on ISI projects.
AI research at ISI spans natural language, information agents,
robotics, computer-aided education, planning, knowledge bases,
knowledge representation, the semantic web and more. ISI is looking for
people in these areas as well as other areas that may grow our research
activities into new directions. We would like to fill the following
types of positions:
- RESEARCH SCIENTISTS: senior PhDs as well as junior PhDs that are
committed to long-term research careers and enjoy collaborative and
challenging projects.
- RESEARCH PROGRAMMERS: researchers that enjoy system development and
integration in diverse collaborative research groups. These positions
are best suited to candidates with MSc and possibly BS degrees.
- VISITING RESEARCHERS: these positions are open to researchers with
possibilities to take a leave from their home institution to
collaborate with researchers at ISI.
- SUMMER INTERNSHIPS: these paid internships are available every summer
to outstanding graduate, undergraduate, and high school students that
want to get involved with research.
Please visit our web site http://ai.isi.edu for more information on the
group, projects and researchers.
Resumes can be sent (all should reference "AI at ISI") by:
- Email (plain text or PDF formatted files only) to: resumes at isi.edu
- Mail to:
