Saarbruecken, Germany

Applications are requested from undergraduate students or Master's
students in computer science, computer engineering, or a related
discipline to The Cornell, Maryland, Max Planck Pre-doctoral Research
School. The fourth of this new annual series of week-long schools will
focus on emerging research trends in computer science, including
databases and data analysis, distributed systems, security and privacy,
Internet measurement and network architecture, large-scale machine
learning, and theory of deep learning. Leading researchers will engage
with attendees in their areas of expertise.

The curriculum will include lectures and interaction with faculty from
participating institutions.

The small, select group of attendees will be exposed to
state-of-the-art research in computer science, have the opportunity to
interact one-on-one with internationally leading scientists from three
of the foremost academic institutions in research and higher learning
in the US and in Europe, and network with like-minded students. They
will get a sense of what it is like to pursue an academic or
an industrial research career in computer science and have a head start
when applying for graduate school.

For full consideration, applications should be received by February 15,
2020. Travel and accommodation will be covered for accepted students.
