About this position

Aalborg University’s Department of Computer Science invites applications for two fully funded PhD positions in human-centred artificial intelligence. The research focuses on protecting cognitive autonomy in human–AI interaction through behaviour-aware systems and digital interventions.

The PhD projects offer two complementary directions. One centres on technical interaction analysis, while the other focuses on user-centred intervention. Together, they investigate how human behaviour and AI-mediated interaction can be understood and supported through responsible, human-centred systems.

The positions are associated with Aalborg University’s Human Augmentation and Collaboration Research Group, providing a research environment focused on collaboration between people and intelligent technologies. The appointments are full-time and include a research stay abroad, offering international research experience alongside doctoral training.

The advert states that the positions begin at the earliest on 1 January 2027 and are open to applicants with a master’s degree.

Funding details

Two fully funded, full-time PhD positions are offered for three years. The positions include a research stay abroad.

What's required

Applicants must hold a master's degree and apply to either the technical interaction-analysis project or the user-centred intervention project.

How to apply

Review the PhD positions in Human-Centred Artificial Intelligence advert on Aalborg University's vacancies portal and submit an application through the linked vacancy page before 13 November 2026.
