About this position

Claus Danielson, Assistant Professor at The University of New Mexico, is recruiting a PhD student to join his research group.

The group works on the mathematical foundations for safe and reliable autonomous systems, with research at the intersection of control theory, dynamical systems, optimization, and machine learning. A major theme is developing rigorous, provable guarantees for learning-enabled systems, including safety, reliability, and performance guarantees for complex decision-making systems.

This opportunity is especially suitable for students who enjoy mathematics and are motivated by challenging, open-ended research problems. Strong preparation in applied mathematics, control theory, optimization, dynamical systems, or machine learning is highly desirable. The post emphasizes theory development and fundamental advances rather than simply applying existing methods.

Interested prospective PhD students should contact Claus Danielson directly at [email protected] and include a brief description of their background, research interests, and relevant coursework or research experience.
