Kainos are pleased to announce a new fully funded PhD opportunity in partnership with Ulster University, with the aim to co-create and evaluate an evidence-based and human-centred AI ethics toolkit to assist developers in assuring and assessing the ethical quality of AI products and services.

This PhD scholarship offers an excellent opportunity for a driven researcher to work with academics and industry leaders, with significant additional budget for travel, training, and equipment.

2. ethical data science/machine learning practices (e.g. mitigating algorithmic bias, ethical considerations around model selection etc.),
3. ethical design of specific AI use cases, e.g. chatbots.
