Artificial Intelligence for Materials Sciences
Welcome to the homepage of the AiMat (Artificial Intelligence for Materials Sciences) group at KIT in which we work on the development of AI and machine learning methods focusing on their application to materials science questions.
The research group headed by junior professor Pascal Friederich was established in 2020 and has been growing ever since. We are therefore always looking for talented students and researchers in computer or natural sciences to join our team!
In the summer term we offer our lecture "Machine Learning for natural sciences" together with the related exercises, a seminar on "Ciritical topics in AI" as well as a proseminar on "Basics of machine learning".
Check them now!
We are searching for talented and motivated young researchers with backgrounds in computer science or natural sciences to join the team! Currently available are two PhD projects and one postdoc position. Interested? Check out the job openings!
