Michael Kaisers graduated from Maastricht with a B. Sc. in Knowledge
Engineering in 2007, and a M. Sc. in Artificial Intelligence in 2008.
In both cases, he earned the honor summa cum laude, additionally
abbreviating his three-years bachelor program to two years, and
complementing his master program by an extra-curricular four-month
research visit to Simon Parsons at Brooklyn College, New York City.
The Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (NWO) selected
him and 47 other candidates in a nationwide competition to be awarded
a TopTalent 2008 grant for a Ph. D. program of four years. In
September 2008, he commenced his position at Eindhoven University of
Technology. Since August 2009, the project is continued at Maastricht
University.
