About this position
The Connected Automated and Resilient Transportation (CART) Lab in the Lyles School of Civil and Construction Engineering at Purdue University is recruiting PhD students for entry in Fall 2027.
The lab investigates smart and connected mobility, including connected and autonomous vehicles, smart infrastructure, and multi-agent systems. Students may work on technologies that enable vehicles and infrastructure to exchange information and coordinate decisions in complex transportation environments.
Research opportunities also include cooperative driving automation, with a focus on vehicle-infrastructure-air cooperative perception, planning, and control. These projects address how distributed sensing and automated systems can jointly understand transportation conditions and safely coordinate vehicle movements.
A further research area is resilient and secure transportation. Potential topics include transportation cybersecurity, emergency response, and human-in-the-loop decision making, combining intelligent transportation systems with security, resilience, and human factors.
The lab is part of Purdue University's civil and construction engineering community and brings together transportation engineering, autonomy, artificial intelligence, machine learning, control, and cybersecurity perspectives.
