Background information
Marie Skłodowska-Curie Doctoral Networks are joint research and training projects funded by the European Union. Funding is provided for doctoral candidates from both inside and outside Europe to carry out individual project work in a European country other than their own. The training network “PROSAFE” is made up of 10 partners, coordinated by the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) in Denmark. The network will recruit a total of 12 doctoral candidates for project work lasting for 36 months.
PROSAFE proposes a novel doctoral training program in the multidisciplinary field combining machine learning, artificial intelligence, and process systems engineering with domain knowledge of process industry and process safety. PROSAFE will pioneer new foundations by integrating Quantitative Risk Assessment (QRA), Process Systems Engineering (PSE) with interpretable machine learning (ML), and artificial intelligence (AI) disciplines as targeted breakthroughs to achieve the objectives. To this end, PROSAFE will develop new synergistic tools and train skilled professionals to address this very important societal, economic, and environmental challenge of safe and sustainable process industries.
