About Clarke University
Basic information and contact details for Clarke University
Clarke University is a four year college with Roman Catholic affiliation, focusing on undergraduate liberal arts programmes but also offering graduate and later adult courses.
Clarke is based in the town of Dubuque in eastern Iowa, which is located in a tristate area, with the borders of Illinois and Wisconsin nearby. It is known for being a cultural centre in the region and having a high student population, with five separate higher learning institutions in the city.
Although Clarke is a relatively small institution with around 1,200 students studying at any one time, there are still over thirty courses on offer. Study in the arts is a centrepiece of education at Clarke, and both a BA and BFA are offered in a variety of subjects. Art students will take the same courses in a foundation year before choosing a specialist course of study. In the study of art education, students will get the opportunity of regular practical experience, as Clarke has a working relationship with many elementary and high schools in Dubuque.
Nursing is a highly popular and well renowned course of study at Clarke, offered at all stages of study under approval by the Iowa Board of Nursing. Within the doctoral programme students will receive opportunities to train as a Family Nurse Practitioner or in Health Leadership & Practice.
Sports teams at Clarke are known as the Crusaders. There are nine men’s and ten women’s teams available, with Clarke taking part in varsity competition through the Heart of America Athletic Conference.
Computer scientist Mary Keller, journalist Nancy Dickerson, and musical actress Karen Morrow are all alumni of Clarke. The most famous former faculty member is George R.R. Martin, who went on to pen the A Song of Ice and Fire fantasy series.

Research Fellow, Smart Lasers and Special Fibres
University of Southampton
United Kingdom, Southampton
University of Southampton
United Kingdom, Southampton
About HiPPo Fibre lasers are now routinely used in the most advanced production lines for cutting, welding, 3D printing, and marking of a myriad of materials from glass to steel. The ability to precisely control the properties of the output laser beam and to focus it on the workpiece makes fibre lasers indispensable to modern manufacturing. As we enter the Digital Manufacturing/Industry 4.0 era however, new challenges and opportunities for fibre lasers are emerging. The primary objective of the HiPPo project www.hippo-laser.co.uk) is to move beyond the “fixed” fibre lasers that are currently used in manufacturing, and towards “smart” fibre lasers that are automatically reconfigured and optimised in real-time depending on the application. This ambitious objective requires research breakthroughs across the spectrum of fibre laser development, from the development of new fibre core materials, to addressing limits imposed by instabilities, noise and nonlinearities, to high-speed beam and polarisation shaping, and finally using deep learning to solve the complexity challenge associated with coherent beam combination. The role Within HiPPo, your specific task will be to develop a ‘digital fibre laser’, through the neural-network control of a tiled array of fibre lasers in a coherent beam combination architecture, for unlocking novel scaling and beam shaping capabilities in real-time. You will work at the Optoelectronics Research Centre (www.southampton.ac.uk/about/faculties-schools-departments/optoelectronics-research-centre) in a project team of currently nine Research Fellows and a similar number of PhD students focussed on delivering the next generation of fibre lasers. You will have access to our state-of-the-art cleanroom facilities, and be led by a team of world leading experts in the fibre laser and deep learning domains. About you You will have a PhD in an experimental discipline or equivalent experience, ideally with experience in fibre optics and low-noise lasers and optical amplifiers, along with their practical implementation. Applications are also welcome from candidates nearing completion of a relevant PhD qualification. Whilst this is a laser development role, awareness of deep learning techniques is beneficial as you will be working closely with deep learning specialists. What we offer The University of Southampton is in the top 1% of world universities and in the top 10 of the UK’s research-intensive universities. We are committed to sustainability and being a globally responsible university. We have recently been awarded the Platinum EcoAward, and strive to embed sustainability into all aspects of our individual and collective work. We aim to create an environment where everyone can thrive and are proactive in fostering a culture of inclusion, respect and equality of opportunity. With a generous holiday allowance, we are committed to supporting our staff and are open to flexible working.
