About this position

The LEGASYS Lab at Utah State University is recruiting motivated MS and PhD students for a UtahView-funded graduate research project on historical land-use and landscape changes across Utah.

The project brings together remote sensing, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), and geospatial artificial intelligence (GeoAI). Students will work with historical aerial photography and satellite imagery, applying geospatial programming and spatial analysis to investigate how landscapes have changed over time.

Research activities may include machine learning and GeoAI applications, image classification, feature extraction, and land-use and land-cover change detection. The opportunity is suited to students interested in applied geospatial research and the use of computational methods to understand environmental and landscape dynamics.

Graduate researchers will join the LEGASYS Lab and may engage with the national AmericaView network, providing opportunities for collaboration and professional networking. The program also offers an opportunity to earn USU's Remote Sensing and Geospatial Artificial Intelligence (RS-GeoAI) Certificate.

The preferred start date is January 11, 2027, with Summer 2027 also under consideration.

Funding details

Graduate research assistantship funding is available, with a four-year funding pathway for PhD students, tuition support, and subsidized health insurance. Students may also earn Utah State University's Remote Sensing and Geospatial Artificial Intelligence (RS-GeoAI) Certificate and participate in networking and collaboration through the national AmericaView network.

What's required

Applicants should have demonstrated experience with ArcGIS Pro and Python, a strong interest in applied remote sensing and geospatial research, and a background in GIS, remote sensing, geography, environmental science, or a related field. Candidates should be interested in pursuing an MS or PhD and should contact Dr. Elise Laugier to discuss the position and formal application process.

How to apply

Contact Dr. Elise Laugier at [email protected] by December 1, 2026, to express interest and discuss the position and application process. This is an expression-of-interest deadline, not the formal graduate application deadline.
