________________________________

The Joint Center on Intelligent Spatial Computing in the School of
Computational Sciences (soon to be part of the new College of Sciences)
at George Mason University has one to two Graduate Student
Assistantships (GRAs) in Spring and Fall 2006 for students pursuing the
Ph.D. in GeoInformation Sciences (http://esgs.gmu.edu/)
<http://esgs.gmu.edu/)>  with a focus on computing or computational
issues.

The one to two assistantships will be focused on Network GIS (including
GridGIS, InternetGIS, AgentGIS, and GeoScience Interoperability) and
Image Processing (including pattern recognition and image/texture
mining).

Students with a master's degree in related fields, such as GIS, computer
science, information system, and remote sensing, are encouraged to apply
for this coming spring (January) semester admission. Distinguished
students with undergraduate degrees in related areas are also encouraged
to apply. Relevant strengths in the ESGS Program/Department include
distributed/web GIS, grid computing for geospatial applications, and
geoinformation interoperability, geocomputation, spatial
analysis/statistics.

Online application can be accessed through
http://www.scs.gmu.edu/Academics_new.html.
