    PhD Position Thermal Sensors based on Sigma-Delta Modulation

    Delft University of Technology

    Delft, NetherlandsDeadline 22 Oct 2026

    We’re seeking a talented engineer to design next generation thermal sensors, such as flow sensors and temperature sensors, that are based on sigma-delta modulators. The key requirements for this position are a soild understanding of sensor physics, especially about heat transfer, and a solid background in analog circuit design. Only candidates with demonstrable experience in chip design will be considered, e.g. who have published in an IEEE conference/journal or have industrial experience in chip design.

    PhD Position Adaptive Optimization and Control of Offshore Energy Systems

    Delft University of Technology

    Delft, NetherlandsDeadline 22 Oct 2026

    The Netherlands targets using only sustainable energy by 2050, yet 161 offshore oil and gas facilities are still active. Integrating renewables into their daily operation during phase-out can reduce environmental impact but introduces additional uncertainty, requiring costly and time-consuming implementation of new controllers as existing infrastructure is already equipped with functioning control structures. The central question now is: How can we enable practical implementation of optimization-based control in offshore energy systems with integrated renewables by building on existing control

    PhD Position: CO2 Desublimation for Cryogenic Carbon Capture

    University of Twente

    Enschede, NetherlandsDeadline 25 Oct 2026

    Carbon capture will play an important role in reducing CO₂ emissions from sectors such as power generation, steel production and cement manufacturing. One promising route is cryogenic carbon capture, in which CO₂ is cooled to very low temperatures and turns directly from gas into solid. This gas-to-solid phase change is called desublimation.

    PhD in High-Frequency Transformer Design and Partial Discharge Modeling for Data Centers

    Eindhoven University of Technology

    Eindhoven, NetherlandsDeadline 25 Oct 2026

    Worldwide, we consume vast amounts of electricity, with data centers and compute currently accounting for more than 2% of global consumption. This share is growing exponentially year-over-year. Within a decade, compute could consume as much as 10%. Are you on board with us to embrace the challenge of designing next-generation power transformers for AI data centers? Are you our next PhD candidate to work on enablers of future compute — the high-frequency transformers?

    PhD in Control Theory for Learned Operators in Dynamical Systems

    Eindhoven University of Technology

    Eindhoven, NetherlandsDeadline 1 Nov 2026

    Are you fascinated by the intersection of control theory and scientific machine learning? Join us in developing the mathematical foundations needed to make deep operators reliable, robust, and applicable for control of complex engineering systems. In this PhD project, you will investigate how operator-learning models can represent dynamical systems, how their stability and robustness can be characterized, and how controllers can be designed for them. Your work will combine rigorous theory, numerical methods, and applications in high-tech, medical, and energy systems.

    2 PhD positions on Measuring the Future of Power Electronics

    University of Twente

    Enschede, NetherlandsDeadline 6 Nov 2026

    The challenge: Power electronics are central to renewable-energy systems, electric mobility, industrial electrification and modern power grids. New wide-bandgap semiconductor devices based on silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) can switch faster and reduce conversion losses, but their performance is increasingly difficult to measure with sufficient bandwidth, accuracy and traceability. When converter efficiencies exceed 99%, even very small measurement errors can obscure the losses that designers need to understand. Within the EU Chips Joint Undertaking project Moore4Power, the Uni
