Chennai: The Robert Bosch Centre for Data Science and Artificial Intelligence (RBC DSAI) at IIT-Madras (IIT-M) has invited applications for its Post-Doctoral Fellowship.
A release from IIT-M said it was open to candidates across the country with Ph.D degrees in research topics related to data science, artificial intelligence or allied application domains.
The research fellowship provides an unique opportunity to carry out independent research, not necessarily attached to a single faculty lab, for Ph.Ds who want to mature towards an independent research career.
It also includes a monthly stipend that is significantly higher than typical institute Post-Doctoral Fellowships.
Prof B Ravindran, head, RBC DSAI, said, “for fresh Ph.Ds looking for an opportunity to explore new ideas and challenge the limits of what we know in data science, RBCDSAI is willing to invest in their ideas, in the form of a post-doctoral fellowship.”
The eligibility criteria include academic qualifications, outstanding publication record and proficiency in programming (high-level languages, preferably Python/R/MATLAB).
Contributions to open-source projects will be advantageous. Candidates with their thesis under review can also apply.
