Systems Research Institute, Polish Academy of Sciences Institute of Computer Science, Polish Academy of Sciences Faculty of Mathematics and Information Science, Warsaw University of Technology are launching INTERNATIONAL PHD PROJECTS IN INTELLIGENT COMPUTING

Coordinator: Sławomir Zadrożny, Ph.D., D.Sc. (Systems Research Institute PAS) financed by the  European Regional Development Fund under the Operational Programme Innovative Economy operated by Foundation for Polish Science (FNP) in the framework of the International PhD Projects Programme (MPD)

• The candidates from all around the world may apply to carry out one of the proposed 15 research projects!
• The successful candidates will be supervised by leading Polish and foreign experts in a cutting edge computer science area!
• They will be provided with scholarships (3000 PLN and 4500 PLN during the stay in Poland and abroad, respectively + 500 PLN for social security) for 4 years or until they defend their PhD theses!
• They will spend at least 6 months with foreign partners – leading academic institutions in Europe and beyond!
• The recruitment is under way - details are given here.

Intelligent Computing is one of the high-tech trends of modern computer science. It provides methods and tools for building complex learning systems, able to adapt and evolve as well as to act in an intelligent way what was so far reserved for human beings. Our „Intelligent Computing” project, carried out by the consortium of 3 Polish and 16 research institutions from all around the world, provides PhD students with a unique opportunity to conduct research under the supervision of leading scientists and prepare their PhD dissertations in one of the most innovative fields of science. It is expected that the project will result in both new theoretical findings concerning the foundations of Intelligent Computing and in novel applications in the areas of multi-agent technologies, data analysis and mining, decision support systems and other. There will be 15 PhD students working within the project, selected in a careful recruitment process taking into account e.g., the background of the candidates and their good command of English.

The successful candidates will be simultaneously enrolled to a special track of the PhD Studies at the Systems Research Institute, Polish Academy of Sciences.
