PhD in Safe and Robust Learning-Based Control and Estimation for Large-Scale Systems and Soft Robotics Université de Bretagne Occidentale in France

PhD position available in Safe and Robust Learning-Based Control and Estimation for Dynamic Tasks on Large-Scale Systems, with applications to soft robotics.

The project is supervised by Moussa Labbadi and Emmanuel Delaleau at Université de Bretagne Occidentale, Bretagne INP - UBO, and IRDL - Institut de Recherche Dupuy de Lôme (UMR CNRS 6027).

Research themes include control theory, learning-based control, large-scale systems, safe and robust control, state estimation, and robotics/soft robotics. The project focuses on autonomous robotic platforms, cyber-physical systems, and safety-critical control under uncertainty.

This is a fully funded PhD position starting around September/October 2026.

Ideal applicants should have a strong background in control theory, mechatronics, and intelligent systems, with interest in theoretical analysis, algorithm design, simulation, and robust control for dynamic systems.

To apply, prepare the requested documents and email them to the supervisors. Use the exact email subject format specified in the post.
