The Human-Computer Interaction Research group in the College of Information Sciences and Technology (IST) at Penn State University invites applications for MS and PhD degrees.

Who we are
Our research in human-computer interaction focuses on creating and evaluating interactive systems. Acting as advocates for humans first and technology advocates second, we create advanced user interfaces and applications that incorporate mobile and collaborative technologies, interactive visualizations, and a wide range of interactions to improve the chance that new information technologies can be used and enjoyed by people for real purposes, regardless of their cognitive, motor, and sensory abilities. We do this by studying the technical, social, experiential, aesthetic, cognitive, and affective aspects of the user experience, as well as consequences for communities, organizations, and society. Specifically, we research topics and issues such as accessible computing, aesthetic computing, behavior change for health and wellness, collaborative learning environments, critical computing, designing for social impacts, experience design, entertainment computing and video games, feminist HCI, geo-deliberation and decision-making in local communities, peer-to-peer exchange systems, sustainability and environmental justice, user modeling, and women’s health.

Qualifications
As an interdisciplinary research team, we welcome students from various backgrounds, such as those who have backgrounds in Computer Science and Engineering, Information Sciences, Interaction Design, Arts and the Humanities, Industrial Design, Behavioral Sciences, Cognitive Sciences, Health Sciences, Philosophy, Social Sciences, and related fields.

Funding Opportunities
Most Ph.D. students receive funding in the form of research assistantships and teaching assistantships for the entirety of their graduate studies. M.S. students are eligible for research assistantships in some cases and may also apply for funding as instructional assistants. Graduate assistantships include a stipend for living expenses, full tuition coverage, and health benefits.

谢谢您的回复！我对hci领域了解还不太深，主要对uist上面的东西（vr/ar, accessibility, ui/ux design） ...

已经有研究经历那就蛮好的；对uist这样具体的hci的会议也有了解也不错。不过确实networking到hci中间距离有点远，直接拿到phd录取比较有挑战。这种情况下我个人感觉是先读个hci ms可能更适合，一方面可以积攒研究经历另一方面是更好的发展自己的兴趣。

不过直接回答你的问题，如果被eecs录取了的话，那主要导师就在eecs了，那想换成ist的主要导师，其实流程上跟重新申请是一样的。不过psu是要求学生的毕业论文委员会上上有一个其他院的老师，所以如果毕业论文主要还是一个eecs的话题同时有一些ist的元素，那也可以就找ist老师做委员。

这个不好说，要具体问题具体分析。一方面呢，HCI是交叉学科，所以里面的学生和老师可以来自各种背景，比 ...

谢谢您的回复！我对hci领域了解还不太深，主要对uist上面的东西（vr/ar, accessibility, ui/ux design）比较感兴趣，ms/phd期间有很强的意愿往这方面转（本科的研究方向是networking，有一篇一作顶会demo，并且拿了一个不错的奖项）但是担心没有hci相关的经历直接申请ist会白给，感觉申请eecs机会会更大，所以想问下如果被eecs录取了，能不能选择ist的导师呢？谢谢～

老师，请问接受多邻国的成绩吗

老师，请问接受多邻国的成绩吗

目前似乎只接受托福或者雅思。

老师您好，请问是在系统内直接申请，还是先发邮件联系您呢？

如果对某个老师感兴趣，可以先发邮件了解一下有没有招生计划。

如果目前没有特别感兴趣的老师或者不想早早的确定，那也可以在系统里先直接申请。以前也有同学是入学以后才确定的导师。

不会的，phd期间funding来源或者是导师的RA或者是学院的TA，不存在学生要自费的情况。

Penn State HCI还是蛮强的。帮着顶一下。
