Join Our Research Team

We are seeking a highly motivated master student to join our research team at the Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research (UFZ). Our mission is to find a balance between social development and the long-term protection of our natural resources.

About the Project

The project focuses on developing an interactive optimization algorithm to address environmental problems in agricultural landscapes. The algorithm will be coupled with simple models for different ecosystem services, and the decision module of the solution's ranking will be further developed. The goal is to apply the algorithm to a virtual study area and make it applicable to real-world optimization problems.

Your Tasks
  • Adapt an existing interactive optimization algorithm to spatially-explicit optimization problems
  • Further develop the solution's ranking within the algorithm
  • Couple the algorithm with existing simple ecosystem services models
  • Apply the algorithm to a virtual study area
What We Offer
  • Excellent supervision and support for your personal and professional development
  • Exciting insights into the work of a leading research institute
  • The chance to work in interdisciplinary, international teams and benefit from a wide range of perspectives
  • Modern technical equipment and IT service to optimally support your work
Requirements
  • Enrolled master student in Geography, Computer Science/Informatics, Mathematics, or similar
  • Very good programming skills in Python, optionally also in R
  • Experience in using GitLab/Github beneficial
  • Knowledge about multi-objective evolutionary optimization algorithms (NSGA-II) is an advantage
  • Interest in ecosystem services and land-use conflicts
  • Independent and structured way of working
  • High proficiency in English
