PhD Fellowships for AI-related Projects in Logic, Philosophy of Mathematics, and Philosophy of Science at the Archives Henri Poincaré [FR]
The AI Grand Est ENACT cluster, led by the University of Lorraine and the University of Strasbourg together with CNRS, Inria, Inserm, awards half- and fully-funded PhD contracts in AI-related topics, open to all disciplinary fields including the humanities and social sciences. A full fellowship covers three years of PhD salary plus €10,000 in research expenses; a half-fellowship, which should be combined with another funding source, covers half the salary plus €5,000.
The Archives Henri Poincaré is a joint research unit between the CNRS, the Université de Lorraine, and the Université de Strasbourg, with sites in Nancy and Strasbourg, working on the history and philosophy of science in a broad sense. It is one of the ENACT cluster's priority research units, and the programme can accordingly fund PhD projects in logic and philosophy that engage with AI, whether in their topic or in their methodology. We are particularly interested in projects on AI and mathematics approached from the standpoint of logic and the philosophy of mathematics, though proposals connecting AI to other areas of logic and philosophy are equally welcome. Prospective PhD students interested in developing a project along these lines should get in touch with Yacin Hamami, sufficiently early to leave time to develop a suitable research project before the topic-submission deadline.
