Research opportunities for MS & undergraduate students
The DSIM lab is seeking highly motivated students to work on robotics and artificial intelligence projects. In DSIM lab, we program the robots to use sensors to perceive the environment and enable them to navigate and cooperate to perform difficult tasks. If you are interested to work with robots and learn to program them, please contact Dr. Nili (zniliahmadabadi@sdsu.edu) with their resume and transcripts. Programming knowledge is a plus.
Research Assistant Position
The DSIM lab is seeking research assistants from Computer Science department to work on robotics and artificial intelligence projects. In DSIM lab, we program the robots to use sensors to perceive the environment and enable them to navigate and cooperate to perform difficult tasks. If you are interested, please contact Dr. Nili (zniliahmadabadi@sdsu.edu) with their resume and transcripts. Knowledge and experience in deep learning, Python programming, and robotics is desired. Cover letters should address experience in deep learning, Python programming, and robotics.
