*** Scholarship for a Dual-Award PhD from both the University of Manchester
(UK) and the University of Melbourne (Australia) on the topic of Automatic
Algorithm Configuration / Hyper-parameter Optimization / AutoML within the
context of mathematical optimization. ***
Deadline: January 19, 2024 (with a start date of September 2024)
(if you need more time to finalize your application, please let us know)
The University of Manchester and the University of Melbourne offer a
fully-funded scholarship to their dual-award PhD programme that provides a
unique experience for PhD candidates wishing to include study abroad as part of
their research.
This project aims to extend the capabilities of automatic configuration tools
to handle multiple conflicting criteria and adapt to such changes in the
problem characteristics. For this purpose, the teams at Manchester and
Melbourne will join their expertise in automatic configuration of algorithms
and instance space analysis. The result of this project will be more powerful
tools for tuning and deploying the critical algorithms that our modern world
relies on so that they can better adapt to changes in the problems being solved
and let users decide the most appropriate trade-off among conflicting criteria.
What you get:
* Two PhD degrees from top universities, The University of Manchester (top 10
in Europe, top 50 in the World) and The University of Melbourne (1st in
Australia, top 30 in the World).
* All University fees paid by the project.
* Competitive stipend of at least 18,622 GBP / year (tax-free) with yearly
increments for the duration of the project (four years).
* 3 years at the University of Manchester and one-year at the University of
Melbourne.
The candidate will be enrolled in the PhD program at the Alliance Manchester
Business School at the University of Manchester and in the PhD program at the
School of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Melbourne. Receiving
a dual-award allows you to benefit from two world-leading institutions.
