Before you apply
Read the full project description on the official vacancy page, check eligibility and the required documents, and contact the named supervisor with specific questions well before the deadline.
PhD Positions in AI and Machine Learning with Stated Funding
Compare 70 active PhD positions involving AI and Machine Learning. Read the individual research question, methods, supervision and application deadline before choosing a project.
Check whether AI and Machine Learning is the main research subject, a method you will use, or a skill you are expected to bring. A tool mentioned in a posting is not automatically a mandatory prerequisite; the official requirements determine eligibility.
These positions state payment or a stipend. Funding type, amount, tuition coverage and eligibility still depend on the individual source; a stipend is not the same as salaried employment.
