Along with continuing their own research agenda, the successful applicant will work closely with members of the Research Group for Information Retrieval (RGIR) (http://www4.uwm.edu/sois/research/RGIR/index.html), participate in RGIR-related events, and consult with current PhD students. The Fellow will be expected to teach one information retrieval-related class in the fall and spring semesters at the undergraduate or graduate level.
