              GRAs and INDUSTRY INTERNSHIPS

      MOBILE ROBOTICS/MACHINE PERCEPTION LABORATORY
    Department of Mathematical and Computer Sciences
                Colorado School of Mines


The MR/MP Laboratory has GRAs and internships with local high-tech industries
starting in summer in Artificial Intelligence at both the MS and PhD levels.

These opportunities specifically are in:

     ROBOTICS AND COMPUTER VISION

     APPLICATIONS OF SYMBOLIC AI

The Colorado School of Mines is a state university, internationally renowned 
in the energy, materials, and resource fields, attracting outstanding 
students in a broad range of science and engineering disciplines.  The School 
of Mines is strongly committed to quality teaching and research. CSM provides 
an attractive campus environment, a collegial atmosphere, relatively small 
size (3000 students, about 30% in graduate programs), and an ideal location 
in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains 13 miles from downtown Denver
and an hour from most ski areas.

The Dept. of Mathematical and Computer Sciences  offers BS, MS, and PhD degrees 
under the department title.  With a faculty of 18 tenured and tenure track 
members, the department annually receives roughly a million dollars in grants;  
116 undergraduate students and 70 graduate students are currently enrolled in our 
degree programs.  The computer science group within the department has a strong 
focus in AI (symbolic and neural nets) and database and parallel processing systems.

The Mobile Robotics/Machine Perception Laboratory is a facility devoted to basic
and interdisciplinary research, technology transfer, and hands-on education
in artificial intelligence  through robotics.  Research and technology transfer 
efforts concentrate on the reduction of human risk in hazardous situations, 
stewardship of the environment, and/or improvement of the quality of life through 
better manufacturing processes. Research in the MR/MP laboratory is supported by
NSF, ARPA, NASA, and local industries. 

For more information, please send email to Dr. Robin R. Murphy,

educational (with GPA) and work experience, what your research interests are, and
GRE scores.
