About this position
This PhD position at Eindhoven University of Technology focuses on information theory and its applications to sensing systems. The project is hosted in the Information and Communication Theory (ICT) Lab within the Electrical Engineering (EE) Department, where the successful candidate will work closely with Dr. Hamdi Joudeh.
The research is centered on the information-theoretic foundations of sensing systems, with particular emphasis on robustness and security. The PhD researcher will investigate fundamental performance limits and trade-offs, with the aim of deriving guiding principles for the design of future systems. The project also offers scope to explore related topics in information theory and sensing, with the exact research direction determined in consultation with the PI.
The successful candidate will join a dynamic academic environment at TU/e and be expected to participate in both research and teaching activities within the PI’s research group. The position is part of an interdisciplinary setting and an international network, and it is based on the TU/e campus in Eindhoven.
