About this position

This PhD project is part of the Collaborative Doctoral Partnership between the Universidad de Sevilla and the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre. The doctoral candidate will work at the intersection of artificial intelligence, simulation, sustainable transport, energy systems and policy support for decarbonisation.

At the Universidad de Sevilla, the student will join the Robotics and Computer Technology Laboratory (RTC) within the Architecture and Computer Technology (ATC) Department. The group brings experience in modelling and simulation of complex systems, cellular automata, agent-based modelling, AI, optimisation, high-performance computing, geographic information processing and intelligent transport systems.

After the first year, the project continues at the Joint Research Centre, Unit C.6 – Economics of Climate Change, Energy and Transport. This unit carries out research in support of energy, transport and climate-related policies, including work on the impacts of decarbonisation policies and regulatory tools, the links between competitiveness, energy and transport, and the development of reference transport network models with a focus on reliability and robustness.

The doctoral researcher will benefit from access to modelling expertise, software infrastructure and HPC resources at the university, together with the JRC’s modelling and policy-analysis capabilities and its science-for-policy environment. The topic is strongly interdisciplinary and combines computational methods with transport and energy policy challenges.

The position is structured as a three-year collaborative doctoral trajectory with academic and JRC researchers involved in supervision.

What's required

Applicants must fulfil the admission requirements for doctoral studies at the Universidad de Sevilla and hold, or expect to obtain before the contract starts, a Master’s degree or equivalent qualification giving access to doctoral studies in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Artificial Intelligence, Data Science, Mathematics, Physics, Transport Engineering, Energy Systems Engineering, or Operations Research. Candidates should have strong quantitative skills, proficiency in scientific programming languages especially Python and/or C/C++ (with possible benefit from Rust, MATLAB, Java or R), knowledge of artificial intelligence, machine learning, optimisation, simulation, data analysis and high-performance computing, and experience or interest in sustainable transport, electric vehicles, alternative fuels infrastructure, road-network modelling, energy-system modelling or climate and transport policy. Strong organisational skills, ability to work independently in interdisciplinary and international teams, good oral and written English, and B2-level English proficiency or equivalent are required. Willingness to contribute to publications, technical reports, software development and dissemination is expected. Favourably considered are experience with complex systems modelling, traffic and transport simulation tools, optimisation methods, GIS, graph theory, sustainable and electric mobility, energy-grid modelling, HPC, scientific software development, research projects, publications, and science-for-policy topics. Applicants must also meet the nationality or residence eligibility conditions stated for the CDP call.
