Description:

Within the initiatives of the European Social Fund (ESF), the Department of
Translation and Interpreting of University of Bologna (1) has secured funds
for a fully-paid three-year PhD grant in the program on “Translation,
Interpreting, and Intercultural Studies” starting in January 2022. 

The “innovation topic” of the grant is the analysis and detection of online
hate speech (in multiple languages). We welcome candidates with relevant
backgrounds in linguistics, sociology, digital humanities, natural language
processing, and/or computing science. We encourage students with programming
skills and knowledge of machine learning approaches to natural language
processing. 

The student will work together with another student carrying out her own PhD
research on automatic misogyny identification (2) and will have the chance to
interact with the scholars of the Department of Interpreting and Translation
as well as the Alma Mater Research Institute for Human-Centered Artificial
Intelligence (AlmaAI) (3).
