The James Wang Research Group invites applications from highly motivated undergraduate honors students to participate in its multidisciplinary research programs. Led by Dr. James Z. Wang, Distinguished Professor, the group conducts cutting-edge research in artificial intelligence and computer vision, with applications spanning art, medicine, biology, and related fields.
Undergraduate honors students will have the opportunity to engage in rigorous, research-driven projects, contribute to scholarly publications, and collaborate within a dynamic and interdisciplinary research environment. We particularly encourage applications from women and individuals from groups that have been historically underrepresented in computing, artificial intelligence, and related fields. All qualified applicants will receive full consideration.
For more information about the group, including research areas, publications, and the placements of former students, please visit: http://wang.ist.psu.edu.
We seek highly motivated undergraduate honors students with a strong foundation in computer science, information science, or a closely related discipline, complemented by rigorous training in mathematics and demonstrated proficiency in programming. Successful candidates will engage in intellectually demanding yet rewarding research projects in artificial intelligence and computer vision, contributing to advances that extend the frontiers of scientific understanding.
Applicants must be current undergraduate honors students with a cumulative GPA of 3.7 or higher. Candidates should demonstrate a strong foundation in mathematics (e.g., linear algebra, probability, statistics, or related areas) and substantial programming proficiency (e.g., Python, C/C++), with evidence of the ability to engage in rigorous computational or analytical work.
Interested students should contact Dr. Wang at jwang@ist.psu.edu and submit a current résumé and an unofficial transcript for consideration.
