Graduate School
With the hessian.AI Graduate School, that is currently being established, we combine the goal of promoting young scientists in the field of artificial intelligence in the best possible way, ensuring optimal conditions for doctoral studies, and continuously strengthening the international appeal of hessian.AI.
For this purpose, hessian.AI has established its own supervision concept as well as a qualification program. We see the following aspects as central to the doctoral phase in hessian.AI:
- Development of sustainable research concepts
- practice in cooperative and interdisciplinary work on a research topic
- Acquisition of specialized knowledge beyond the special field of the dissertation as well as further key qualifications relevant to the professional field (such as entrepreneurship, project management skills, etc.)
- Development of mediation skills both for exchanges with an expert audience as well as for conversation and communication activities with an audience outside the discipline
- Acquisition of initial teaching experience
- Participation in international research collaborations and, if possible, expansion of international contacts
Connectom Networking and Innovation Fund
The Connectom Fund offers seed funding for joint research between hessian.AI members and other colleagues from participating universities. It is financed by the state of Hesse and is announced and carried out by the Technical University of Darmstadt as the lead partner of hessian.AI. The fund is used to support projects across the entire spectrum of research, teaching, demonstrator/prototype development or application.
