[Apologies for multiple postings]


PhD position available – University College Cork (UCC)

Applications are invited for a doctoral studentship in computer science to be 
located at University College Cork as part of the SMARTeBuses project funded by 
the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland Research RD&D Programme.

The project is classified as Non-economic Public Good Research under the EU 
State Aid regulations. The project will exploit, combine and improve 
cutting-edge AI technologies (Constraint Programming, Mixed Integer 
Programming, Metaheuristics and their combination with Machine Learning) to 
develop and implement optimization models for the operation of electric buses 
in Ireland with operational constraints (e.g., limited driving range and 
battery charging/discharging time).

General enquiries about the PhD positions can be made to Dr. Alejandro 
Arbelaez: a.arbel...@cs.ucc.ie<mailto:a.arbel...@cs.ucc.ie>

Applicant Expertise Requirements:

Candidates must have an undergraduate or taught postgraduate degree in computer 
science or mathematics, with strong analytical, problem solving, and software 
experience. Students will be expected to have some experience in constraint 
programming, operations research, machine learning, optimization, local search, 
graph theory or artificial intelligence, e.g. having undertaken an 
undergraduate project in one of these areas or having completed an MSc in a 
closely related area. Other relevant areas of expertise would be knowledge in 
constraint, integer or dynamic programming, or evolutionary computation or 
other metaheuristics, or a machine learning area such as reinforcement learning.

Funding Details:

The successful applicants will each receive total funding of €18,500 per annum 
for up to four years and an annual contribution of €5,500 towards tuition fees.

For more information about the Department of Computer Science, please see the 
following link: http://www.cs.ucc.ie/

To Apply:

Interested candidates should apply by email to Dr. Alejandro Arbelaez 
(a.arbel...@cs.ucc.ie<mailto:a.arbel...@cs.ucc.ie>) and must include “PhD 
SMARTeBuses Application” in the subject line.

Applications must include, in PDF format only:

  1.  Full CV;
  2.  A transcript of results for all university level modules and courses;
  3.  One-page abstract describing final year undergraduate project (if 
applicable);
  4.  One-page abstract describing MSc project (if applicable);
  5.  One-page abstract describing relevant work experience (if applicable);
  6.  300 word statement explaining interest in research, referring explicitly 
to one or more of the areas listed above.

If the successful applicant’s first language is not English they will have to 
provide evidence of English language proficiency. 
https://www.ucc.ie/en/study/comparison/english/postgraduate/.

Non-native English speakers are required to hold an IELTS certificate 
demonstrating at least a score of 6.5 overall with a score of not less than 6 
in all parts. UCC has approved the use of the Duolingo English Test (DET) as a 
temporary measure for the 2020 intake and students are required to hold a DET 
score in excess of 120.

Closing Date for Applications: 14th August 2020
