  Description du sujet:

Digital Systems for Humans (DS4H) is a graduate school and a pluridisciplinary research coordination structure focused on scientific, technological and human aspects of the digital world and the digital society.

It is part of Université Côte d'Azur, one of the ten French most research-intensive universities.


In 2023, we are awarding 8 research grants in all domains of Digital Systems and the Digital Society, including 4 grants with thematic priorities:

-
Digital and Social Sciences:

-
Digital and the Environment:

-
Applied quantum technologies (quantum computing, quantum simulation, quantum communication or quantum metrologies and sensing), in partnership with QuantEdu-France through QuantAzur Institute
-
Artificial Intelligence, in partnership with the 3IA Côte d'Azur

Here are some of the topics open this year (list updated daily on our website until May, 9th.
