Come visualize planetary science and robotics data with the NASA JPL / Caltech / Art Center visualization internship, a multi-disciplinary program for computer scientists, designers and artists. Students will develop creative interactive visualization tools for scientific research/engineering groups selected from a broad set of areas at JPL and Caltech. Working in multidisciplinary teams, students will use methods from User-Centered Design, computing, 3D graphics and interaction design to visualize real data sets that support active scientific research. They will receive mentorship in visualization, computing and design from program co-organizers Hillary Mushkin (Caltech), Scott Davidoff (JPL) and Maggie Hendrie (Art Center) as well as Santiago Lombeyda (Caltech). Students will work closely with scientific or engineering researchers to understand their research and data, identify their visualization needs and determine the relevance of design iterations to their research and data. This should be a good opportunity for students interested in data visualization techniques and real world problems who want to gain experience crossing disciplinary boundaries WHEN June 15 - August 20, 2019 (to be confirmed) WHERE Pasadena, California PAY $6.3K undergrad, $8.3K grad ELIGIBILITY Applicants must be continuing students.
