For more information about the positions contact the project leaders Prof. Maciej Eder ([email protected]) or Prof. Liina Lindström ( [email protected]) *Why apply now?* Currently there are multiple innovative projects being conducted in Estonia on closely related topics. This creates an exciting and promising scene for both formal and informal collaboration, especially since many of these projects are carried out at least partly at the University of Tartu, including the *Estonian Center of Excellence in AI* (EXAI <https://exai.ee/>), the ERC Consolidator project *Rise and Demise of Industrial Modernity* (RiDe <https://cordis.europa.eu/project/id/101170823>), the *Language Data Research Infrastructure* (KeTa), and *Neural text analysis models enhanced with external linguistic resources* (description <https://www.etis.ee/Portal/Projects/Display/7f84cf46-e183-4248-988c-7d777e27c235>); note that RiDe is also offering PhD and postdoc positions. *Why study or work in Estonia?* Estonia offers Nordic quality of life, a strong academic environment and convenient digitized services—all while maintaining a reasonable cost of living that supports comfortable student life. The University of Tartu, founded in 1632, ranks among the top 1% of the world’s most cited universities and actively fosters sustainability and intersectoral collaboration, having produced numerous successful startups. Estonia itself ranks #1 in startups per capita in Europe. As a member of the EU and NATO, Estonia is internationally minded, and English is widely spoken. Estonia’s digital infrastructure streamlines official procedures, as everything from contracts to taxes can all be handled online in minutes by citizens and residents alike. Tartu is a lively university town known for its cozy atmosphere, vibrant student life, bike and walking friendly spaces, and scenic riverside. It has been named the UNESCO City of Literature, and the European Capital of Culture in 2024. The city is well connected to Europe and the world, but also offers easy access to nature, with nearby vast networks of forest hiking trails, excellent winter sports opportunities, and the charm of four distinct seasons.
