This PhD research should target specific problems in an area of application of AI and/or autonomous systems with wide societal implications, where there is currently a mismatch of expertise or competences in humanities or social sciences. Swedish universities are invited to prepare proposals together for a research topic for a PhD position together with Swedish public or private organisations. Proposals can be submitted by researchers affiliated with humanities or social sciences faculties or equivalent.

• Innovative collaboration projects
  The program Innovative collaboration projects aims in particular to strengthen the scientific competence of young researchers through a competitive program of collaboration with public and/or private partners, in research directions related to the humanities and social sciences. This research targets specific problems in an area of application of AI and/or autonomous systems with wide societal implications, where there is currently a mismatch of expertise or competences in humanities or social sciences. These projects should strengthen the vision of WASP-HS of excellent multidisciplinary research with high societal relevance for Sweden. Universities are invited to prepare proposals for a research project together with other universities and with Swedish public or private organisations.
