PhD position on Machine Learning, Data Science, and Algorithmic Accountability at Maastricht University
Maastricht University is looking for a PhD candidate to work on the RegTech4AI project, which aims to develop regulatory technologies for citizens, enforcement agencies, and businesses in the domain of artificial intelligence. The project is led by Konrad Kollnig and funded by the AiNed fellowship program for AI talent.
As a PhD candidate, you will contribute to a better understanding of how technical methods can help study how cutting-edge digital technologies affect society and what can be done in response. Your work will aim to better protect the digital lives of ordinary citizens, who are commonly exposed to deceptive software designs, abuse of their data and privacy, and the will of large tech companies in determining how foundational digital infrastructure is built.
The PhD position is fully-funded and part of the RegTech4AI project, which brings together six full-time researchers to work on a shared vision. Your primary task is conducting the research for your PhD project under the supervision of professors of the Maastricht Law & Tech Lab. Your exact project will be determined in consultation with you and according to your interests and skills.
The deadline for applications is May 30th, and interviews will be held in June. To learn more and apply, visit here.
