Dear all,
We have several PhD positions in the Computer Science Department at CU Boulder. The tentative PhD topics are around the general formal verification and synthesis of AI-enabled CPS. Please encourage your undergraduate or master students to apply before December 15 and assign me as their tentative advisors. Sorry for the short notice!
Here are a couple notes about what’s a bit unique in our offer letter that I would like to highlight.
Your official offer letter is for at least five years, and we have always had all of our PhD students fully funded regardless of duration in the program.
Your offer includes a $4000 fellowship awarded in your first year. This is intended to help you with moving and starting expenses (e.g., a laptop).
A unique aspect of your offer and our program is that we award first-year PhD students travel support ($1000) to attend a top-tier conference. We strongly believe in getting you engaged in the research community right away, and this award is one way we support that.
The pay scale for graduate assistants is standardized across CS (which is higher than most other departments). There are two levels as you progress through the degree program (before your thesis proposal and after your thesis proposal).
Best,
