Two PhD and two PostDoc researcher positions with the ERC Advanced Project
GeoViSense (PI Sara Irina Fabrikant)

The Geographic Information Visualization and Analysis (GIVA) group at the
University of Zurich invites applications for two doctoral and two
post-doctoral research positions in the context of the ERC Advanced Project
GeoViSense, lead by the GIVA group head and PI Sara Irina Fabrikant. This
project, at the interface of GIScience (geovisual analytics) and
neuro-cognitive science aims to study how we make space-time decisions with
geographic information displays (GIDs) in varying mobile decision making
contexts, and to develop respective display design guidelines for future user,
task, and context-responsive GIDs to better support efficient and effective
space-time decision making on the go.

We seek highly self-motivated researchers who will work efficiently and
effectively on an interdisciplinary and collaborative research project
involving large-screen Virtual Reality (VR) displays and mobile location-aware
interfaces. Applications from women and under-represented groups are
especially encouraged.

:: P h D   p o s t s ::

A completed MSc in Geography and/or a closely related discipline (e.g.,
Psychology, Cognitive|Neuro Science, Computer|Data Science, etc.) is required.
You will be interested in carrying out a PhD, empirically examining the role
of user, task, and changing contexts factors for mobile decision making with
location-aware geographic information displays. You will have a good standard
of written and spoken English. Knowledge of German, whilst not required, would
be an advantage. Ideally, the substantive domains of contribution within
GIScience include geographic information visualization/geovisual analytics,
spatial cognition, quantitative (empirical) research methods, and related
areas. A background in empirical data collection (indoors|outdoors),
quantitative data analyses, and programming for Virtual Reality environments
and/or for mobile applications would be an asset.  The successful candidate
will be hired on a 1-year scholarship (starting November 1st, 2017), which
will be extended to the nominal 4-year PhD period after positive evaluation.

For informal thematic inquiries about this position contact Prof. Sara Irina
Fabrikant, Email: sara.fabrikant at geo.uzh.ch (subject: GeoViSense PhD), or by
phone: +41-44-635-5150.

Applications must include a motivation letter, a CV, transcripts, and the
contact information of two referees. Apply digitally to: Human Resources,
Department of Geography, University of Zurich, Winterthurerstr. 190, CH-8057
Zurich, Switzerland, Email: secretary.giva at geo.uzh.ch (subject: GeoViSense
PhD), phone: +41-44-635-5151. Review of applications will begin Aug. 1st,
2017, and will continue until the position is filled.

:: P o s t D o c  p o s t s ::

A PhD in Psychology, Cognitive|Neuro Science, Computer|Data Science,
Geography/Spatial Cognition, or related is required. We seek an established
and highly motivated researcher who will be successful in leading an own
research group, and work efficiently and effectively on interdisciplinary and
collaborative projects. Experience in empirical behavioral research with human
participants (indoors|outdoors), and/or in the collection|analyses of
psycho-physiological data streams (i.e., EEG, EDA, EMG, or related space-time
data) are essential. You have excellent written and spoken English
communication skills. Knowledge of German, whilst not required, would be an
advantage. Programming for Virtual Reality environments and/or mobile
applications would be an asset. The appointment will be made on an annual
basis for the first year (starting November 1st, 2017), with opportunity for
multi-year extensions (potentially up to 5 years).

For informal thematic inquiries about this position contact Prof. Sara Irina
Fabrikant, Email: sara.fabrikant at geo.uzh.ch (subject: GeoViSense PostDoc), or
by phone: +41-44-635-5150.

Applications must include a motivation letter, a CV, a list of publications,
and the contact information of two referees. Apply digitally to: Human
Resources, Department of Geography, University of Zurich, Winterthurerstr.
190, CH-8057 Zurich, Switzerland, Email: secretary.giva at geo.uzh.ch (subject:
GeoViSense PostDoc), phone: +41-44-635-5151. Review of applications will begin
Aug. 1st, 2017 and will continue until the position is filled.
