About this position

King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals in Dhahran is inviting PhD researchers to join the ARM4L (Autonomous Robotic Manipulation for Logistics) Lab, starting in August 2027. The lab works on autonomous robotic manipulation and logistics-oriented robotic systems.

The advertised research spans geometric modeling and control of vehicle–manipulator systems, including the coordination of mobile platforms and manipulators. Other directions include mechatronics design of tethered UAV–UGV systems and human-in-the-loop multi-aerial robot collaborative manipulation, combining aerial robotics, ground vehicles, manipulation, control, and human–robot interaction.

PhD researchers will work in a robotics and mechatronics environment led by Assistant Professor Ramy Rashad at King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals. The projects are suited to students interested in robotics, autonomous systems, geometric modeling, control, programming, vehicle–manipulator integration, UAV–UGV systems, and collaborative multi-robot manipulation.

Funding details

The PhD vacancy is described as fully funded; no stipend amount or detailed breakdown of tuition and other benefits is provided.

What's required

Applicants should have a strong academic record with a CGPA of at least 3.5/4.0, a passion for mathematics and programming, and an MSc in a relevant field. Exceptional BSc graduates may also be considered for the Direct PhD program.

How to apply

Submit an application through the Google Form by November 21, 2026. Shortlisted candidates will be interviewed between November 22 and 28, 2026. Successful candidates must then apply to CGIS by December 15, 2026.
