Building an AI-powered Decision Support System

Are you passionate about technology and looking for a practical, real-world experience in technology?

This internship is perfect for students who want to help develop a Decision Support System using Generative AI in the context of Disaster Risk Management and Preparedness Plans. Apply now for this internship!

What will you do and learn?

Join us as an intern and you’ll be right at the heart of major European projects, namely the projects RURACTIVE and RESILIAGE, with international partners. You’ll help to create a new, innovative AI-powered Decision Support System.

This system will be a new tool for knowledge sharing and analysis. Based on the data collected and analyzing that data, the system can then formulate best practices suggestions, identify relevant role models, and summarize lessons learned.

With the addition of Generative AI, the system could also generate smart recommendations.

If you’ve always dreamt of shaping the future of diverse territories with real societal impact, then you’ve found the perfect place to start!

Choosing the right methods and technology to get the job done.
Collecting, structuring and analysing data to identify patterns, insights, and trends that help define strategies and improve the effectiveness of the tool.
Use the selected set of tools to build the Decision Support System.
Collaborating with international partners, to gain insights to make the project even better.
Reporting your findings and progress, becoming a key voice in our team.

If you’re studying in a science or engineering field and have experience with programming, you’ll fit right in.

Ideally, you have the following qualifications:

Currently enrolled in a science/engineering degree, e.g. Computer Science, Software Engineering, Data Science, etc. in the 3rd or final year
Experience with Python, particularly for data analysis, data processing and experimentation
Hands-on experience applying AI technologies, with a strong focus on Large Language Models (LLMs) and prompt engineering
