Inter-disciplinary PhD position on Statistical Sampling, Automated Planning and Robotics for Ocean Observation at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), Trondheim
************************* Note: this position is specifically targeting Automated Planning and Execution with applied Statistical Sampling ************************* The Department of Mathematical Sciences NTNU is offering a PhD position which crosses disciplinary lines. Information can be found at: https://www.jobbnorge.no/en/available-jobs/job/197845/phd-position-on-statistical-sampling-robotics-and-ai-for-ocean-observations <https://www.jobbnorge.no/en/available-jobs/job/197845/phd-position-on-statistical-sampling-robotics-and-ai-for-ocean-observations> Background MASCOT (Maritime Autonomous Sampling and Control) is a research project financed by the IKTPLUSS program of the Norwegian Research Council. The project is a collaboration between NTNU, SINTEF Ocean and the Univ. of Porto, Portugal. The primary aim of the MASCOT project is to expand current knowledge on Statistical Sampling for the global ocean in a multi-disciplinary manner through the enabling sciences of mathematics, statistics, control engineering and autonomous systems. The ocean holds extremely important resources for the Norwegian society, and new knowledge to sustain this environment while being innovative in developing new domains of the changing economy is of utmost importance. Application Deadline: January 31st 2021 The application must include the following: A recent CV which includes information about education background and work experience. Certified copies of relevant transcripts and diplomas. Candidates from universities outside Norway are expected to send a Diploma Supplement or similar documentation, which describes in detail the program of study, the grading system and the rights for further studies associated with the obtained degree. Contact information for two references. Documentation of fluency in the English language. Applications must be submitted electronically via the URL above.
