An international research team lead by researchers from Computer Science and Geography at the University of Saskatchewan are actively recruiting 2 to 3 fulltime undergraduate research assistants (RAs). These RAs will work on three aspects of an indoor positioning system that will eventually provide seamless localization with GPS for both indoor and outdoor spaces. The indoor positioning system will rely on algorithms, models, and databases of signal/sensor systems already deployed throughout campus (primarily wifi and Bluetooth signals). Students will have the opportunity to work on one of three areas of active research:
For additional information interested students should contact either Professor Kevin Stanley (kstanley@cs.usask.ca) or Professor Scott Bell (scott.bell@usask.ca).

Come out and claim the title of best problem solver. Novice and Intermediate levels are offered. You can register as a team or solo. When: Saturday, February 2nd, 2013The Spring Programming Contest is back!
The Department of Computer Science Professional Internship Program allows undergraduate students to obtain 12 or 16 months of practical "on-the-job" experience with a sponsoring company prior to completing the final year of their undergraduate degree program. The existence of a formally recognized internship program offers significant benefits to the students, to the industrial sponsors, to the department, and to the university as a whole. These benefits include: practical training and work experience for the students; technology transfer, productive work contribution, and prospective employee evaluation for the employer; and increased university-industry interaction for the department and the university. We are now accepting applications from companies and students interested in partcipating in the program. Interns will be placed in May/Sept 2013.
