11 PhD Positions in robotics and AI for agricultural robotics
- Horizon Europe MSCA-DN Project AIGreenBots -
Offer Description:
The Horizon MSCA-DC project AIGreenBots is looking for 11 motivated and talented doctoral candidates (DCs) to develop the next generation of intelligent AI-based agricultural robotics.
The candidates can select one or a maximum of three open positions at top-ranked institutions located in PT, ES, FR, NL, UK. The AIGreenBots project involves partners from academia and industry/companies. More information about the project is available here.
The offer includes:
  • PhD programmes with experts in exciting topics related to AI, machine learning, and robotics;
  • Inter-and-cross multidisciplinary network of universities and companies;
  • Exciting environments and excellent conditions;
  • Secondments (internship) in non-academic partners in a different country where you will be doing your PhD studies;
  • Excellent payment conditions – the final salary will depend on the regulations of the selected host institution and the respective country.
