PhD opportunity at The University of Newcastle , Australia, in Hierarchical Imitation Learning for Long-Horizon Robotic Tasks . This project develops a novel framework combining hierarchical imitation learning and reinforcement learning to help robots complete long-horizon, multi-step tasks such as production line assembly and household chores. The research focuses on learning high-level subgoals from demonstrations and low-level control policies for execution, with validation through continuous...

Questions
Should I email professors before submitting my PhD application?
Yes. A well-targeted email can significantly improve your chances in many research-based programs.
What should I include in my first email to a professor?
A brief introduction, research interests aligned with the professor’s work, CV, and (if available) publication links.
How long should I wait before following up with a professor?
Typically 7–14 days. One polite follow-up is considered acceptable.
Is it better to send the same email to many professors?
No. Personalized emails that clearly match the professor’s research receive far better response rates.
Do I need a full research proposal when contacting professors?
Usually not initially — a short research summary is sufficient unless the professor specifically requests a full proposal.
