PhD Student in Mixed Reality and Digital Twins
Vor 5 Tagen
The Research in Orthopedic Computer Science (ROCS) at the University of Zurich is offering a fully funded PhD study position. This PhD project explores the creation and application of digital twins to enhance learning experiences by integrating real-world data and processes into virtual environments. It aims to efficiently generate digital twins from multi-modal data, seamlessly blend them into real environments for immersive training scenarios, and leverage them to improve individual and team-based training and education.
The PhD project will be conducted within IMMERSE, an initiative focused on "Immersive Education and Science Exploration". IMMERSE is dedicated to driving the digital transformation of education and training through innovative immersive teaching and learning technologies.
As a foundation for the research, the doctoral candidate will independently familiarize with the state-of-the-art during the first six months and collaborate with their supervisor to develop a multi-year research plan. The PhD program is conducted within a graduate school of the University of Zurich, which also requires the student to serve as a teaching assistant for 1–2 courses per year.Your profileYou graduated with excellent results with a MSc in computer science or robotics. Your academic journey demonstrates a focus on computer vision, computer graphics, human-computer interaction, augmented reality, and artificial intelligence. Through your previous experience, you have developed strong programming skills and gained hands-on expertise with XR technologies, cameras, and 3D engines, such as Unreal or Unity.Information on your applicationThe application closes in February 2025, with the latest employment start date set for May 1, 2025 (earlier start dates can be arranged by agreement).
