= open PhD positions at Kno.e.sis Center =
The Ohio Center of Excellence in Knowledge-enabled Computing (Kno.e.sis)
is one of the largest and most influential academic research centers in
Semantic Web and some of the Web 3.0 topics in the US. These new
emerging areas combine a number of traditional CS fields (Artificial
Intelligence, Natural Language Processing, Machine Learning, Knowledge
Representation & Reasoning, Databases, Data Mining, Information
Retrieval and Extraction, Distributed Computing, Mobile and Sensor Web,
High Performance computing).
Students who are seeking world-class research and guidance are welcome
to apply for our PhD program. We have 15 faculty and over 45 funded
researchers (mostly PhD students) and funding from major federal
agencies as well as Microsoft Research, HP Labs, IBM Research and Google.
Students are exceptionally successful (see
http://www.slideshare.net/knoesis/inauguration-flash - interns at top
companies, employment in top industry R&D labs, academic institutions
and startups, alumni have started startups, etc.).

If you are interested in joining us, please contact any of our faculty
members, including me. Students with an MS/ME and those who know what
they like (and is in our area of expertise) and want in life (those who
are ambitious) are especially welcome.
Admissions are granted all year around. Strong CS background and
research inclination is required. All PhD students in the Center have
financial assistantships (some MS students are also partially supported).

The department offers a pre-screening to check whether your credentials
are strong enough for enrolling:

If you have done CS courses beyond Bachelor's degree, most of the
credits can be transferred, reducing the remaining course work.
