16 PhD Students at LogiCS doctoral program, Vienna University of Technology | Αυστρία

The Logical Methods in Computer Science – LogiCS doctoral program is a PhD degree program, funded by the Austrian Science Fund FWF and run jointly by the three Austrian universities TU Wien (Vienna University of Technology), Graz University of Technology and Johannes Kepler University Linz.

Why study Logical Methods in Computer Science?
LogiCS offers an international program characterized by the unique combination of disciplines where logical methods decisively impact practical computer science.

Logic is a powerful reasoning tool. Originally invented as an aid for sound argumentation, it reached maturity in the form of mathematical logic and analytic philosophy in the early 20th century, with significant contributions from Vienna. LogiCS continoues this tradition, using logic as a tool that enables computer programs to reason about the world.

Successful applicants will work on interdisciplinary research topics covering

1. computational logic,
2. databases and artificial intelligence, 
3. computer-aided verification, and
4. emerging application domains, such as cyber-physical systems, distributed systems, and security & privacy.
