Opportunites for Junior Members

Besides our regular events, we offer special initiatives including regular meetups, industry pitch talks, which connect our junior members with industry leaders, or MCML workshops to promote research and collaboration. These programs are specifically tailored to foster growth and engagement in the field of machine learning, providing valuable opportunities for junior members to advance their skills and network within the community.

Check out upcoming events below.

Connecting Top AI PhD Talent with Industry Leaders Purpose

The Munich Center for Machine Learning (MCML) fosters excellence in AI research and education. To strengthen the bridge between academia and industry, MCML offers an Industry Internship Program for its PhD students. The program enables PhDs to gain first-hand industry experience, while companies benefit from access to outstanding AI talent.

Many process flows (like assumption of travel costs etc.) and useful information (like mailing lists, templates) concerning MCML can be found in our MCML-Collab area at BayernCollab, which MCML members can access with their LRZ-ID.

The PhD Coordinators are the primary contact for all our junior members with questions related to the MCML PhD program. They organize regular transfer activities and community-building events, such as the MCML Pitchtalk events, the PhD Onboarding events, and the MCML Stammtisch. Please feel free to contact our PhD Coordinators at any time on questions related to our program and activities.

The junior member representatives serve as a link between MCML directors/management team and the large cohort of junior members within MCML. They are elected to three-year terms by the junior members. Their role includes attending quarterly meetings with the MCML directors, organizing activities and networking opportunites for the junior members, and serving as a sounding board for any junior members who need support.
