We currently have openings for 1-2 Ph.D. students (including financial support) with research interests in human factors, ergonomics, and wearable sensing technologies. Best candidates should have previous research experience in human-subject experiments and be familiar with statistical analysis using software packages (e.g., R, SPSS, etc.) as well as programming languages (e.g., Matlab, Python, etc.). Students with educational backgrounds including Industrial Engineering, Systems Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and Computer Science are encouraged to apply.
If interested, please complete this SURVEY, and send an email to Dr. Sol Lim (sol@vt.edu).
In order to be considered for the position, all students must submit an official application to the Ph.D. program in Industrial and Systems Engineering (ISE). Information for prospective graduate students about the admissions process to the Ph.D. program can be obtained from the Department website.
