We are always on the lookout for qualified and motivated team members. Interested candidates for all positions should submit a cover letter and curriculum vitae to Dr. David Minh (david dot minh at iit dot edu). Postdoctoral candidates should also submit contact information for 2-3 references.
Postdoctoral positions are periodically available. Salary will be commensurate to experience. We are interested in supporting fellowship applications for competitive scholars.
Current M.S. and Ph.D. students at Illinois Tech will be considered.
Prospective M.S. and Ph.D. students should express interest in our group in their applications and also contact Dr. Minh.
Current undergraduate students are accepted from all degree programs at the Illinois Institute of Technology. A number of our undergraduate students have been quite successful. You can read more about John Clark, William Menzer, and Stanley Nicholson.
Many undergraduates from other universities have visited for summer internships.
High school students may be considered for summer internships.
