The Visual Analytics Research Team at Oak Ridge National Laboratory is looking for summer interns at all levels as well as post-docs, post-masters, and post-bacs. We are also looking for qualified full time candidates.
We have a variety of projects in the areas of cyber security/network defense and health care. Projects tend to be 'big data' type projects that leverage diverse open-source platforms and technologies, such as Hadoop, Storm, graph databases, node.js, and d3js. Successful candidates will perform research and development activities in visual analytics, HCI, user testing, machine learning, probabilistic modeling, data fusion, or distributed computing.
See below for more information on each of the programs. We also have post-masters and post-doc programs in visual analytics.
If you are interested, have questions, or intend to apply, please contact John Goodall, .
