These points are examples. We are actively looking for new ideas and if your Research project does not fall precisely in the above categories, please still consider applying. For example, if you are doing a PhD in Quantum Computing algorithms with AI or a project that involves user interfaces with robots or Internet of Things applications – come tell us about it because we are flexible
What the internship is about- We will work with you and your PhD supervisor to define a project that relates to your PhD.
- We highly encourage publication of the results of your project.

We are interested in PhD Research candidates from Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Science, Music Technology, Media Technology, or Media Content Creation. We are not prescriptive of skill sets, but it is useful if the Research intern has ability in using appropriate tools, e.g, a project in machine learning may require programming Python or Matlab or a project in XR creation may use MaxMSP or Final Cut/Logic Pro. Most importantly, we are looking for the ability to creatively explore and design experiments to uncover new and interesting learnings in media.
