Scholarship Contest Research agreements with advanced modeling and simulation of landscape architecture, urban hydrology, watershed modeling and hydrological ecosystem services. The case study is located along the Ciliwung River watershed on the outskirts of Jakarta, Indonesia.
The Scholarship Contest successful candidate will join an interdisciplinary research team of the newly formed, where it will (i) supervise three PhD students develop strategies for landscape architecture in urban river setting, visualization scenario landscape-water interaction using advanced 3D modeling techniques associated with GIS representation of numerical simulations and measuring hydrology and hydrological value of ecosystem services, (ii) integrate their research in a study conducted by the entire team of researchers working in watershed modeling, urban hydrology and water quality modeling, and (iii) coordinate the overall research project including data management and delivery.
Senior Researcher will conduct research and also teaching some of the 3D GIS landscape modeling and visualization techniques. Thus, Scholarship Contest candidates will have a PhD with postdoctoral experience in 3D GIS strongly associated with landscape topology modeling and visualization. Sound knowledge of the ecology, ecosystem services and more particularly hydrology and landscape architecture and planning is expected. Knowledge of statistical methods and GIS program with multivariable datasets and 3D landscape modeling and visualization programs are preferred.
Qualification
We are looking for someone who is highly motivated and have experience in scientific research, which has a special interest in the topic and with the right background and level of publications. The Scholarship Contest candidate must have a strong sense of personal initiative, feel comfortable with both the team and work independently, and demonstrate proven organizational and oral / written communication skills. Prior experience in a multidisciplinary project of the asset. http://www.callforpapersinfo.com
http://thescholarshipprogramme.com Former experience in graduate / postgraduate student supervision is welcome. Skills in programming and software applications used in landscape modeling and visualization in combination with 3D GIS is absolutely necessary.Scholarship Contest Excellent oral and written command of English is essential.
Applications
This position is open to all qualified candidates. Each candidate was asked to apply electronically with 2 pdf files at the address shown below. Pdf first covering motivation letter, CV, PhD and Master's certificate and academic transcript, the second pdf is a copy of his PhD dissertation and relevant papers thereof. In addition we need two confidential letters of recommendations to be submitted directly as a pdf to the same address.
The Scholarship Contest selected candidates will be registered as a Senior SEC / FCL researchers over a period of 4 years. Work will be based on the SEC in Singapore to Zurich where possible throughout the entire contract period. The research will be conducted by the research team living in Singapore, working on a complex interdisciplinary projects, exploring the question of combustion modeling watershed and urban landscape design and interaction development in Jakarta.
Interviews can be done either in Singapore or Zurich. This position will start on 1.9.2011 or flexibly thereafter.
Electronic applications and questions about the position should send to the ETH Professor Christophe Girot: ila@arch.ethz.ch (maximum 10 MB attachment.)
