 PhD opportunity

The University of Ferrara offers a PhD scholarship officially branded as
'PhD in Mathematics', but, in fact, in Computer Science, within the context
of the co-joined PhD program of the universities of Ferrara, Modena, and
Parma (Italy, Emilia-Romagna region). The program is three-years long, at
the end of which a thesis must be produced. In this case, the scholarship
is co-funded by an international company, and the work will be
theoretical-practical in every aspect. The gross salary is around 16000
euros/year, but with a very convenient tax schema, that leaves the net
salary around 1100 euro/month. The candidate will work in the context of
the ACLAI lab at the University of Ferrara (https://aclai.unife.it/) and
this scholarship is about bio-sensors applied to emergency/rescue
operators, their signals, their wearability, and -top-down as well as
AI-based- systems to detect dangerous situations in single operators. In
the context of the PhD, the candidate will be expected to produce
theoretical research as well as participate in the real implementation of
such systems. Under the assumption of a successful program with
satisfaction from all parties, the company is prepared to offer a permanent
working contract at the end of the PhD, with a salary to be discussed.

The ultimate deadline to apply is 11th of October. Please refer to prof.
Guido Sciavicco (guido.sciavicco at unife.it) for all enquiries; an informal
online interview will be necessary prior the application, and applicants
must be informed that, in case of winning the public competition, an
immediate relocation of the candidate is expected.
