PhD in Human-Inspired Artificial Intelligence
CHIA's new PhD course welcomes applications!
About the PhD
CHIA’s new PhD in Human-Inspired Artificial Intelligence will train the next generation of AI researchers, technologists, and leaders in the development of human-centred, human-compatible, responsible and socially beneficial AI technologies.
The course offers research training in areas such as fundamental human-level AI, social and interactive AI, cognitive AI, creative AI, health and global AI, and responsible AI. Students will be educated in an interdisciplinary environment where they can get access to expertise not only in the technical but also human, ethical, applied and industrial aspects of AI.
This programme takes a cross-disciplinary approach to technical AI. PhD students will have access to a large community of scholars tackling similar questions and to the active research events programme that constitutes a key part of CHIA’s work. The course addresses the broader need for experts equipped to develop more responsible and human-centred AI as academia, industry, government and non-profit sectors.
The Course
The PhD in Human-Inspired AI is a 4 year full-time (up to 7 years part-time) programme of individual research on a topic agreed by the student and CHIA under the guidance of a staff member as the student’s supervisor.
The PhD programme also includes development of transferable skills through our student development programme and broader activities within the CHIA programme. PhD students attend weekly student-led seminars/lab meetings as well as the CHIA Early Career Community seminar series and will have an opportunity to attend many AI-related events across the campus.
In their final year, students will be required to submit a Thesis of up to 60,000 words.
