Summer 2020 Undergraduate Research Assistant Positions at UVM CS:
PLs for Differential Privacy and Multiparty Computation Protocols
===================================================================
We are hiring two undergraduate students for research assistant (URA) positions
in UVM Computer Science this Summer. The project will be conducted remotely
with no requirements for student relocation. The hired URAs will work with
members of the PLAID lab (https://plaid.w3.uvm.edu) on topics in differential
privacy, multiparty computation, and related programming language design, under
the direction of Drs. Christian Skalka and Joe Near. URAs will be expected to
help develop software and evaluation methods, and will have the opportunity to
be co-authors on publications. Specific goals of this project are to develop
network and programming architectures for security and privacy in distributed,
federated machine learning applications, as an instance of edge computing in
IoT settings.
The project period is 5/25/20-8/21/20, with $8,000 in stipend support for the
Summer. To apply, send your cv and a current copy of your transcript to
[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> and
[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>. Applicants must be US citizens and
full-time undergraduate students, preferably in Computer Science or a related
field.
