Call for applications - Science of Intelligence Berlin - Cluster of Excellence



Call for 11 research positions (Phd and Postdoc)

Application deadline: 25 November 2021 23:59 h CET



Cross-disciplinary research in artificial intelligence, machine learning, control, robotics, computer vision, behavioral biology, cognitive science, psychology, educational science, neuroscience, and philosophy.



Starting dates: Summer / Fall 2022

Duration: 3 years

Salary level: TV-L 13, 100%



What are the principles of intelligence, shared by all forms of intelligence, whether artificial or biological, whether robot, computer program, human, or animal? And how can we apply these principles to create intelligent technology?



Answering these questions - in an ethically responsible way - is the central scientific objective of the

Cluster of Excellence Science of Intelligence (https://www.scienceofintelligence.de/).



Researchers from a large number of analytic and synthetic disciplines - artificial intelligence, machine learning, control, robotics, computer vision, behavioral biology, cognitive science, psychology, educational science, neuroscience, and philosophy - join forces at this multi-disciplinary research program across universities and research institutes in Berlin.



Our approach is driven by the insight, that any method, concept, and theory must demonstrate its merits by contributing to the intelligent behavior of a synthetic artifact, such as a robot or a computer program. These artifacts represent the shared "language" across disciplines, enabling the validation, combination, transfer, and extension of research results. Thus, we expect to attain cohesion among disciplines, which currently produce their own theories and empirical findings about aspects of intelligence.



Interdisciplinary research projects have been defined which combine analytic and synthetic research and which address key aspects of individual, social, and collective intelligence. In addition, the Science of Intelligence graduate program promotes the cross-disciplinary education of young scientists at a doctoral and postdoctoral level.



All doctoral researchers associated with the cluster are expected to join the Science of Intelligence doctoral program (https://www.scienceofintelligence.de/education/doctoral-program/).



The cluster welcomes applications from all disciplines that contribute to intelligence research.
