PHD STUDENTSHIPS IN COMPUTATIONAL LINGUISTICS, SPEECH TECHNOLOGY AND
COGNITIVE SCIENCE

Institute for Language, Cognition and Computation
School of Informatics
University of Edinburgh

The Institute for Language, Cognition and Computation (ILCC) at the
University of Edinburgh invites applications for three-year PhD
studentships starting in September 2024. ILCC is dedicated to the
pursuit of basic and applied research on computational approaches to
language, communication and cognition.

Primary research areas include:

 - Natural language processing and computational linguistics
 - Machine Translation
 - Speech technology
 - Dialogue, multimodal interaction, language and vision
 - Computational Cognitive Science, including language and speech,
decision-making, learning and generalization
 - Social Media and Computational Social Science
 - Human-Computer interaction, design informatics, assistive and
educational technology
 - Information retrieval and visualization

Approximately 10 studentships from a variety of sources are available,
covering both maintenance at the research council rate of GBP 19,162
(2024/25 rates) per year and tuition fees. Awards increase every year,
typically with inflation. Studentships are available for UK, EU, and
non-EU nationals.

Applicants should have a strong undergraduate degree or equivalent in
computer science, cognitive science, AI, or a related discipline.
