Job description

A fully funded PhD position in the broad field of systems and control is available at the University of Groningen, the Netherlands. The specific subject of the project will be determined collaboratively with the selected candidate to ensure a good fit and to attract top talent. Possible topics include, but are not limited to, the following: systems and control theory, feedback optimization, distributed control, consensus protocols, nonlinear control, robust control, with application to energy systems (e.g. smart grids, district heating, hydrogen networks) and traffic networks.

Apart from the research project, the candidate is expected to contribute (~10% of total workload) to the teaching and supervision of Bachelor and Master students.

The position will be supervised by Prof. Michele Cucuzzella, and the candidate will be embedded at the Engineering Technology Institute of the University of Groningen (ENTEG). ENTEG research is highly multidisciplinary in nature and focuses on both fundamental and applied research. The candidate will be a member of the Jan C. Willems Center for Systems and Control which is recognized for its long tradition in mathematical systems theory and its strength in linear/nonlinear systems analysis and control of complex networks. According to the Shanghai Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU) 2023, Automation and Control Engineering at the University of Groningen is ranked 3rd in Europe and 19th worldwide.
