WISeNet is currently accepting applications 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.
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. 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: webmas...@lisc.pratt.duke.edu). 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/).
