We are seeking highly motivated and talented applicants contributing to our growing multidisciplinary research in traffic and transportation engineering at the University of Melbourne, Australia.
Applicants should have a Master (for research assistant position) or PhD (for postdoctoral position) in computer science or applied mathematics or physics and should have experience in agent based modelling and simulation. Preferred background and experience include crowd dynamic modelling and simulation. The applicant should have a strong software programming background and experience and be expert in C/C++.
The candidate will perform research and development in the area of crowd dynamic, crowd dynamic visualisation and agent based modelling. Familiarity with Unity and 3D modelling is preferable. The position may include supervision of graduate and undergraduate students and participating in outreach activities. Potential applicants are encouraged to contact Professor Majid Sarvi, submitting their complete CV and particularly reflect on the experience in programming, agent based modelling and crowd dynamic.
Applicants who are very close to finish their Ph.D. degree are highly encouraged to apply. The position is available immediately for duration of two years, with the possibility of extension for the third year depending on the quality of applicants. A competitive annual salary of $60,000-$78,000 including 9.5% superannuation will be offered (this is negotiable for right applicants). The call for applications will remain open until the position is filled. The starting date is flexible, but ideally would be in April 2016.
