About this position

The University of Oslo is seeking to recruit both PhD and Postdoctoral Research Fellows in the field of AI methods for robotic body-brain co-design. These positions are connected to The Norwegian Centre for Embodied AI (NCEI), one of Norway’s six new national centers for AI research. Successful candidates will join a world-class team focused on transforming how robot morphology and autonomy are co-designed, with a particular emphasis on evolutionary algorithms, quality-diversity methods, and sim-to-real transfer.

The PhD Research Fellow position requires a Master’s degree in Robotics, Artificial Intelligence, or Computer Science, along with strong programming and machine learning skills and a record of academic excellence (Grade B norm). The Postdoctoral Research Fellow position requires a PhD in Robotics, AI, or Computer Science, as well as experience with evolutionary robotics or simulation tools such as Isaac Gym. Both positions are based at the University of Oslo, Norway, and offer the opportunity to work in a collaborative, international environment with access to world-class facilities.

Benefits include a top-tier pension scheme, family-friendly surroundings, and a strategic focus on career development and international collaboration. The University of Oslo is recognized as one of Norway’s leading institutions for AI research, providing an excellent environment for academic and professional growth. The application deadlines are March 15, 2026 for the PhD position and March 16, 2026 for the Postdoctoral position.

For more information and to apply, candidates should visit the official job postings linked in the announcement. This is an excellent opportunity for motivated researchers interested in AI, robotics, and the co-design of intelligent robotic systems to advance their careers at a leading European university.
