PhD Student Position in Ocean Observation Sensors and Robotics

1 month ago


Gothenburg, Västra Götaland, Sweden Chalmers tekniska högskola Full time
Project Overview

This PhD student position offers a unique opportunity to contribute to a large national research program with a wide range of partners. The research project targets real-world problems to create a sustainable Blue economy, with a focus on waters around Sweden as a template for other areas worldwide.

Research Focus

The research will focus on creating fully automated and robust data chains from robots or observatories deployed in the oceans to publicly available cloud environments. The data will be enhanced using other existing data sources and machine learning methods. The research will also explore robust embedded electronics and sensors for use in rough ocean environments, with related mechanical engineering and design. If possible, bio-inspired methods will be employed to improve system endurance and self-maintenance.

About the Division and Department

At Chalmers tekniska högskola, we conduct fundamental and applied research in areas such as safety, energy efficiency, and material optimization of sustainable technology solutions. The division is one of seven divisions at the department, focusing on engineering systems with applications in vehicles and robots. Our research group conducts research in a wide variety of topics, including automated transportation, mobile robots, and conversational AI, with interpretable AI as a common theme.

Major Responsibilities

Your main responsibility will be to pursue research within the project, implementing, testing, and extending existing scientific ideas and concepts, as well as inventing new ones. You will communicate the results of your research verbally and in writing at leading conferences and journals. You will be guided by senior researchers at the involved departments. The position also includes teaching on undergraduate and master's levels, as well as supervising master's thesis students or performing other duties corresponding to 10-20 percent of working hours.

Collaboration and Communication

You are expected to actively communicate with other project partners, attend project meetings, and pursue tasks within areas where Chalmers is involved. You will also find possible research topics within the project tasks for the purpose of writing research papers.
