University of Cyprus - Department of Computer Science
VACANCY FOR A SPECIAL SCIENTIST IN THE AREA OF E-LEARNING
The Department of Computer Science of the University of Cyprus announces a position for a Special Scientist within the research project "Tooling of and Training for Collaborative, Distributed Product Innovation" (idSpace), which is being funded by IST of FP7.
The position is available immediately and until the end of March 2010.
The annual starting salary for a Research Scientist will be within the scale of 18,000 - 22,000 EUR and will depend on qualifications and prior experience.
Innovative design is characterized by an intense, collaborative process of generating and exploring ideas meant to contribute to the solution of particular problems. Innovators go through cycles of divergence, in which new ideas are generated and explored, and convergence, in which new ideas are valued and detailed. The idSpace project will design and build a responsive web-based environment that will offer an integrated suite of knowledge eliciting and sharing tools, and create a collective, sharable memory to support the entire innovative design process.
A suitable candidate for the above position should have a degree in Computer Science or related field and post graduate studies related to one or more of the following areas: Context Awareness, Adaptive Systems, Ontologies, User Modeling, E-Learning, Collaborative Learning. Candidates should also have experience in conducting research, possess good programming skills, and be fluent in the use of the English language.
Applicants need not be citizens of the Republic of Cyprus. Knowledge of the Greek language, although considered a practical advantage, is by no means a requirement. The research activities pursued by the successful applicant can lead to the earning of a Ph.D. if s/he so wishes. Due to the involvement of the successful candidate in using cutting edge technologies, this post is also suitable for a post doc position.
Anyone interested in this vacancy is kindly asked to contact us (preferably electronically) as soon as possible at the address below and provide us with a CV together with a short description of his/her research interests and background. Submitted documents may be written in Greek or English. Please send all relevant information to Professor George A.
