We are looking for an excellent student to pursue PhD with the Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University. Basically, the student will work under a Hong Kong CERG funded research project titled “On Relating Online Reviews to Quality Function Deployment in Engineering Design”. The project focuses on intelligently analyzing the online product reviews and linking them for optimal decision making in product design through quality function deployment. We are particularly interested in students with strong background in text processing, machine learning, datatext mining and optimization. Knowledge on quality function deployment and engineering design is preferred, but not compulsory.

It is expected to start the project from July 2009. The student must have a master degree or is expected to secure the master degree before the official registration at HK PolyU. Heshe will be awarded full scholarship for 3 years and enjoy relevant conference fees and training opportunities.
