Research Fellow (two positions) in Data Analytics - Scotland, UK

Research Fellows in Data Analytics (Ref C41034)

Institute for Innovation Design & Sustainability

We wish to recruit two Research Fellows to support a number of new and ongoing research projects in
Smart Data Technologies, an established research strength in the Digital Technologies theme of the
IDEAS Research Institute. We are looking to appoint two researchers to work on innovation projects
and collaborative projects with industry partners.

We seek enthusiastic and proactive individuals with expertise in intelligent systems. Experience in big
data, data modelling, data mining, text mining or sensor systems would be an advantage. Strong
programming skills are essential and experience in multi-disciplinary projects is desirable. These two
full-time posts are funded initially for 12 months, but there is an expectation that these posts will be
extended, as the posts are part of RGU's ambition in the area of Big Data.

The IDEAS Research Institute is a multi-disciplinary research institute and its Digital Technologies
theme is associated with the School of Computing Science and Digital Media. The Smart Data
Technologies Centre is co-located with IDEAS and the School within a new £120m building with
excellent research facilities at RGU’s Garthdee Campus. The successful candidates will be part of the
Smart Data Technologies Centre's activity in data modelling and optimisation, data/text mining,
information retrieval, and case based reasoning. The group consists of 10 academics, 6 research
fellows and 20 PhD students.

Further information about the Digital Technologies theme of the IDEAS Research Institute is available
at http://www.rgu.ac.uk/ideas/digitech.

Informal enquiries may be addressed to Professor Susan Craw, Professor John McCall or Professor Ian
Allison (ideas@rgu.ac.uk).
