About this position
Eindhoven University of Technology is recruiting a PhD researcher for the Information and Communication Theory (ICT) Lab within the Department of Electrical Engineering. The project is funded by the Dutch Research Council through a Vidi grant and is supervised by Dr. Hamdi Joudeh, Associate Professor.
The research will investigate the information-theoretic foundations of sensing systems, with particular emphasis on robustness and security. The project aims to establish fundamental performance limits and trade-offs and to develop guiding principles for the design of future sensing systems. The successful researcher will have scope to explore information theory, sensing and related areas, with the precise research topic determined in consultation with the PI.
The PhD researcher will work closely with the ICT Lab and participate in the research and teaching activities of the PI’s group. The position offers an interdisciplinary and international research environment on TU/e’s campus in Brainport Eindhoven, a technology region known for activity in AI, photonics, semiconductors and advanced manufacturing.
