The M3S (Empirical Software Engineering in Software, Systems and Services) research unit (http://www.oulu.fi/m3s) in the Faculty of Information Technology and Electrical Engineering (ITEE, http://www.oulu.fi/itee/) at the University of Oulu, is now hiring highly motivated candidates for doctoral student positions. The candidates are expected to complete a doctoral degree in four years in the Doctoral Programme of Information Processing Science, at the University of Oulu Graduate School (UniOGS).
The M3S research unit has a long tradition in industrial and international collaboration. There are hundreds of ICT companies in the Oulu Region, including numerous university spin-offs. Over 40% of the research unit’s personnel are outside of Finland. Members of the research unit have published their research in leading software engineering journals and conferences, including IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering, IEEE Software, Empirical Software Engineering, Information and Software Technology, Journal of Systems and Software, and the International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE).
