The research group of Prof. Hristo Chipilski in the Department of Scientific Computing at Florida State University (FSU) is recruiting one (1) MS or PhD student to begin as a Graduate Research Assistant (GRA) in Fall 2024. Research will be conducted in the
growing field of data assimilation for science and engineering applications. Students will have considerable freedom in defining their own research directions, but topics of special interest include (i) the development of non-Gaussian ensemble filters, (ii)
the assimilation of ground-based remote sensors, and (iii) the use of artificial intelligence/machine learning tools in data assimilation and numerical weather prediction.</p>

Prospective students should email Prof. Chipilski at <a href="mailto:hchipilski@fsu.edu">hchipilski@fsu.edu</a> with the subject line <i>GRA Fall 2024</i>, and include (i) a short description of their research interests as well as (ii) a CV/resume highlighting
their training and experiences. After a suitable candidate is determined, a formal application through FSU's Office of Admissions will be required (<a href="https://admissions.fsu.edu/">https://admissions.fsu.edu</a>), and should be preferably completed before
the end of December 2023.</p>

The Department of Scientific Computing was one of the first programs in the nation to offer competitive graduate programs in Computational Science with specializations in Atmospheric Science, Biochemistry, Biological Science, Geological Science, Materials Science
and Physics (see <a href="https://www.sc.fsu.edu/education">https://www.sc.fsu.edu/education</a> for more information). Together with the newly developed Master of Data Science program, the incoming student will work and study in a truly interdisciplinary
environment. They will also benefit from Prof. Chipilski's connections with various national labs in the US (NCAR, NASA JPL, NRL and NOAA), creating additional research and training opportunities.</p>
