Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) invites applicants for an Assistant/Associate Professorship that will strengthen its competences in the area of interconnected systems and Smart Industry.
Global challenges on resource availability, pollution, and energy usage force industry to rethink current processes and practices. With new technological trends in the areas of autonomization, connectedness, AI, and energy tech there is a strong need for proposing and investigating new methodologies and insights to design the next generation of industrial systems and processes, which are characterized by their large-scale interconnected systems’ nature.
Do you have a fascination for Industry 4.0/5.0 concepts and logistics-enhancing methods in rapidly developing environments with high levels of digitization, modularization, and robotics? Or do cyber-physical (production/transport) systems and the underlying technology inspire you? And do you pursue a large-scale, multi-machine, systems-of-systems perspective in your research? Then consider applying!
Embedded in the department of Maritime & Transport Technology, you advance the state-of-the-art with your research line inspired in particular by industrial challenges in the ports & maritime area. You bring in your own methodological perspective as fundamental basis of your research and pursue these ideas towards both qualitative and quantitative assessment of smart industry systems. These ideas include concepts spanning smart equipment to network (supply chain) level, and involve proposing new systems-of-systems design concepts. You position your perspective in relation to the other areas of expertise from section to TU Delft level to create added value from cooperation.
