Cambridge Digital Humanities invites applications for a funded 3-year PhD studentship to conduct research within the AI Forensics project, funded by the Volkswagen Foundation. For more information on the project, please see the project description on the CDH website: https://www.cdh.cam.ac.uk/research/projects/ai-forensics/
The PhD will be hosted by the Faculty of English, but applications are welcome from a wide range of technical and humanities disciplines. Applicants are invited to propose their own PhD project within the project description and in line with their own research interests and expertise. Please note that if successful, an applicant's research plan will have to be reviewed after the start of the PhD, in terms of the objectives of the overall research project.
Applicants would preferably have a background in either a relevant humanities discipline (e.g. history of art, history of science, digital humanities) and/or a relevant technical discipline (e.g. machine learning, image processing). Since both fields are relevant to the project, ideal applicants would have an interest in (or willingness to learn) any relevant areas they haven't yet formally studied. Applicants should have (or expect to be awarded) an upper 2nd or 1st class honours degree, or equivalent international qualification.
