Programme Description
The research and training programme focusses on the mathematical and algorithmic foundations of reliable AI along with domain knowledge in 4 core application domains, for which reliable AI methods are most urgently needed: medicine and healthcare, robotics & interacting systems, algorithmic decision-making, and learning and instruction. relAI scholarships are intended to support outstanding students and PhD candidates who are studying AI related subjects so they are able to focus on their studies. relAI offers a cross-sectional training for successful education in AI including scientific knowledge, professional development courses and industrial exposure, providing a coherent, yet flexible and personalised training.
