I have some bursary funding available for a computer Go project at Stellenbosch University in South Africa, at both masters and doctoral level.
Although they would be useful, knowledge of machine learning/artificial intelligence techniques and skill in the game of Go are not necessary. However, applicants should be good programmers, and preferably have some background in mathematics and statistics. Applicants require an Honours or 4-year degree in a suitable field (e.g. Computer Science, Statistics, Applied Maths, Electrical Engineering). Bursary amounts (fulltime per year): Doctoral: R45000; Masters: R30000. If you might be interested, please contact me. If you know of other people who might be interested, please forward this to them.
