faculty positions at UT Austin ASE/EM Department

[Ryan P. Russell]

Dear Colleagues:

UT Austin has several tenure track positions open, most likely to be filled at the Asst. professor level. Of particular interest to this distribution is the 'Space Systems Engineering' opening (and possibly Remote Sensing' and 'Controls and Autonomy'). If any of you are interested, or have promising colleagues/students/ post docs/former students; please distribute and/or consider applying. Details are below. Please contact me for further info. Thanks!

Best Regards,
Ryan

Space Systems Engineering
Engineering of small satellites and/or space systems in support of Earth and space science and technology. Topics include autonomy, estimation and control, embedded systems, mission design, technology miniaturization, on-board algorithms and other emerging areas in space technology. Experience with space-flight projects is desired. Collaboration with the Center for Space Research is also encouraged.

Remote Sensing
Earth and space observation and associated interdisciplinary technology and data analysis. Topics of interest include innovative instrument design, remote sensing data analysis and interpretation, including data fusion and inverse theory, modeling, and science applications. Application areas include Earth and planetary atmospheres, oceanography, land surface classification and change, and others. Collaboration is encouraged with the Center for Space Research (http://www.csr.utexas.edu/).

Controls and Autonomy, Robotic Systems
Research areas may include, but are not limited to control theory, distributed systems, shared-autonomy, estimation/filtering, game-theory, guidance, navigation, information-theoretic approaches, hybrid systems, verification/validation, and mobile sensor networks, with applications to aerospace vehicles and robotics. Applicants with interests in large-scale data-driven systems and/or cyber-physical systems are particularly encouraged to apply. We expect successful applicants to collaborate among multiple departments; thus a demonstrated ability to work across disciplines is essential.
