Dear all,

As part of the ORCHID Doctoral Training Programme, we are looking for the brightest computer scientists and mathematicians to build the theoretical foundations for the next generation of intelligent information systems ? Human-Agent Collectives (HACs).

ORCHID offers a fully-funded scholarship for 3.5 year PhDs, with a stipend ranging from ?14,000-?18000 (depending on background and experience), working alongside internationally leading academics based in the Universities of Southampton, Oxford and Nottingham.

The successful applicant will undertake research in the topics of machine learning and game theory, combining the strength of the two fields to successfully tackle the research challenges of very large HAC systems (e.g., HACs with hundreds of thousands or millions of autonomous agents).

In addition, the successful applicant will play an active role within the team, from agenda setting to building demonstrators and applying research in commercial settings. In return you will work on a flagship project, join a vibrant working environment with your own dedicated space and personal laptop and have the ability to travel to present results at international conferences.

To be eligible for this competitive scholarship you must demonstrate a relevant connection with the UK. In particular, you need to be ordinarily resident for a period of three years immediately prior to the date of application, excluding any period of residence mainly for the purposes of full-time education. EU nationals are eligible for fees-only awards if they are resident in their own country for a period of three years immediately prior to the date of application, excluding any period of residence mainly for the purposes of full-time education.

For more information please contact:

Professor Nick Jennings (nrj@ecs.soton.ac.uk)
Dr. Maria Polukarov (mp3@ecs.soton.ac.uk)
Dr. Long Tran-Thanh (ltt08r@ecs.soton.ac.uk)

Informal applications via email are also encouraged.

Best regards,
Long Tran-Thanh
University of Southampton
