One Ph.D. position is available through the Joint Doctorate Program (JDP) of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering department at UC San Diego and San Diego State University for Fall 2020.

Dr. Jun Chen is an assistant professor in San Diego State University Aerospace Engineering Department. His current research area includes dynamics, control, optimization and artificial intelligence, particularly in data-driven modeling, control and optimization for large-scale networked dynamical systems under uncertainty, with applications on air traffic control/management, UAS traffic management, and autonomous air/ground vehicle systems. He received his Ph.D. and M.S. degree in Aerospace Engineering from Purdue University and his B.S. degree in Aeronautics Engineering from Beihang University.

The group is seeking highly motivated  students for research positions in the area of control, optimization and machine learning with emphasis on autonomous systems. The research area includes computational optimal control, stochastic optimization, machine learning, distributed control/computing with applications on UAS traffic management and autonomous vehicles.

The ideal candidate should have excellent mathematical background and strong programming skills (Python, C++, Julia or Matlab). Candidates with good knowledge of dynamics and control, optimization, machine learning/reinforcement learning, modeling and simulation, and UAVs are highly desired. Selected candidates could start as soon as Spring 2020 or Fall 2020. Postdocs and visiting students/scholars are also welcome.
