Welcome to the Institute for Artificial Intelligence!
The Institute for Artificial Intelligence (IAI) is directed by Prof. Michael Beetz.
As a research institute, we conduct basic scientific research in the field of cognition-enabled robotics for everyday activities.
As part of the Faculty of Computer Science, we have a project-based teaching approach. Our hands-on projects in teaching include SuTuRoProjekt: SUTURO - sudo tidy-up-my-room, IntEL4CoRo and the annual EASE Fall School.
The IAI is member of the Center for Computing and Communication Technologies (TZI) as well as the high-profile area Minds, Media and Machines (MMM) at the University of Bremen.

Hope to see you in Brisbane, Australia
Best doctoral robotics thesis goes to Daniel Leidner
We congratulate Daniel Leidner for receiving the prize for the best doctoral robotics thesis in Europe at the European Robotics Forum 2018!
Daniel is co-leading the efforts of the EASE research project R4 at DLR and received his doctoral degree in 2017 from the Informatics faculty of the University of Bremen.
Google Summer of Code 2018
The Institute for Artificial Intelligence has been selected as
mentoring organization for the
Google Summer of Code 2018 as one out of 212 organizations world-wide. The initiative, started in 2005, sponsors students during the summer months for contributing code to selected open source projects. This is our third year in the Google-sponsored program and we're looking forward to mentoring interested students and introducing them to our software tools and research.
You can find more information about the proposed projects as well as contact information of the designated mentors at our Google Summer of Code page.
Teaching
A detailed description of most courses can be found in the Online Module Handbook of the Department.
If you are looking for lectures from past semesters, take a look at our Lecture archive.
Besides lectures and projects, we also offer thesis assignments and jobs for student research assistants. If you are interested, you can find more information here.
