Hiring: PhD positions

The Swarm Intelligence Lab – in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Rutgers University, is now looking to fill two fully funded Ph.D. positions.

We conduct fundamental research in the area of dynamical systems and control theory with an emphasis on distributed network systems, collective animal behavior, swarm intelligence, and robot autonomy.

The students are expected to conduct research in data-driven modeling and control of collective animal behavior with application in swarm robotics and power systems.

Positions are available for Spring 2023 and Fall 2023.

 

Candidates are required to have a B.S. and/or M.S. degree in Electrical, Computer, Mechanical Engineering, or any related areas. Candidates must have a strong background in mathematics and an interest in more than one of the following areas: data science, controls, dynamical systems, animal behavior, robotics, and optimization
