Opportunities at the Artificial Intelligence Group -- Universitat Pompeu Fabra

There are usually a number of openings and funding options for qualified candidates:

Master and PhD Students: For info about the current Master program see here; for info about PhD program, here . A limited number of scholarships is available in both cases.

Important: In order to apply to the UPF PhD program, you'll need a research statement (tentative PhD topic) and a letter of support from the prospective PhD advisor.If you are interested in doing your PhD with us and thus need this letter of support, you need to send me your transcripts, CV, and your research statement. This research statement should give me some idea of why you want to do the PhD with us, and why we would like you to do your PhD with us. This means that you must show some familiarity with what we do and have some preliminary ideas of what research you could do with us. Without a hopefully clear and crisp research statement; I won't be able to write a letter of support.

For Faculty, see the Ramon y Cajal program and ICREA. These are programs set up by the Spanish and Catalan Governments that provide funding for Universities to hire qualified professors.

Qualified Postdocs can apply to the Juan de la Cierva program funded by the Spanish Government, the Marie Curie Fellowships from the European Community, or various programs from the Catalan government. Often there are also open Visiting Professor positions in the department for funding postdocs. See here.

About some of these programs, you may want to take a look at the article Spain aims at premier league in Nature 431, 488-489, 23/9/04
