The Tübingen AI Center is a research institution hosted by the University of Tübingen in cooperation with the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems. Its researchers aim at developing more robust, efficient, and accountable learning systems. Embedded in Tübingen’s rapidly growing science and technology campus, the Tübingen AI Center cooperates closely with ELLIS – a Europe-wide research network in machine learning – as well as the Cyber Valley initiative, which connects researchers with start-ups and industry in the area.

    The Tübingen AI Center is seeking to fill up to two positions:

    The application must be accompanied by a detailed teaching concept that addresses specific ideas for improving teaching in the computer science degree programs at the University of Tübingen as well as new and innovative forms of teaching.

    Preference will be given to applicants with disabilities, if equally qualified. The University of Tübingen is committed to the goals of equality and diversity and actively promotes equal opportunities. The University of Tübingen aims to increase the proportion of women in research and teaching and therefore invites applications from suitably qualified female academics.
