About this position
[Job Alert] Funded openings are available in the RISE Lab at the School of Manufacturing Systems and Networks, Arizona State University for PhD students and postdoctoral researchers in human-robot interaction.
The research focus is on human-robot co-adaptation and human-robot co-manipulation for real-world manufacturing and physical assistance tasks. The lab highlights prior publications in venues such as ACM Transactions on Human-Robot Interaction, IEEE Transactions on Robotics, ICML, AAMAS, and L4DC.
Preferred research backgrounds include data-driven robot learning and robot control, with especially strong interest in candidates with experience in game theory, reinforcement learning, optimal control, high-fidelity simulation, digital twins of contact-rich tasks, foundation models, and vision-language-action models.
The earliest preferred start date for PhD students is Spring 2027. Postdoctoral researchers may start immediately. The positions are described as funded, but no stipend amount or other financial package details are given.
