WISeNet Graduate Training at Duke
The WISeNet Integrative Graduate Education and Research Training (IGERT)
program at Duke University prepares a new generation of Ph.D. students
for interdisciplinary research in wireless sensor networks. Through the
WISeNet training and certificate program, students contribute to the
development of intelligent sensor systems that process, store, and learn
from data so as to improve their ability to gather information over
time. By participating in WISeNet laboratory and field experiments,
trainees also contribute first hand to unprecedented observations of
environmental and ecological processes, and more effective and reliable
use of sensors for defense and national security.
WISeNet Requirements and Certificate
Trainees undertake four cross-disciplinary courses, laboratory and field
experiments at international partner institutions, and specialized
simulation, visualization, and virtual reality projects. These
requirements are integrated within each trainee’s specialization area,
which may range from ecology and geosciences to robotics and artificial
intelligence.
WISeNet is currently accepting applications
Trainees must be enrolled in a Ph.D. program in one of the participating
departments at Duke University. Duke students who are interested in
applying should request application material from the WISeNet Program
Director, Prof. Silvia Ferrari (Email: [email protected]).
Non-Duke students interested in WISeNet are strongly encouraged to apply
to the graduate program of interest through Duke Graduate School
(http://gradschool.duke.edu/admissions/).
