[AISWorld] PhD Scholarships in Urban Data Science/Smart Cities

[This is the AISWorld List Server]

There are two great opportunities open for PhD Scholarships with the
Warwick Institute for the Science of Cities at University of Warwick, UK:

• Centre for Doctoral Training in Urban Science & Progress (fully funded
scholarships for UK/EU students):
http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/fac/sci/dcs/admissions/cdt/cdtabout

• Alan Turing Institute (fully funded scholarships for international
students, based at the ATI/London):
https://www.turing.ac.uk/opportunities/studentships/

In particular, I'm interested in supervising highly motivated students that
would like to do research on smart cities/ urban spatial analysis /
crowdsourced geographic information, especially in the field of disaster
risk reduction/urban resilience (further details:

Please forward this information to potentially interested students.
