Opening Ph.D. Positions

Opening Ph.D. Research Assistant Positions in Optimization, Data Science, and Optimal Control

I am actively looking for up to 3 Ph.D. students for the Winter 2023/ Fall 2024 intake. The desirable candidates must have strong backgrounds in mathematics, strong interests and motivations in doing high impact research. Excellent command of English and good publication record, though not required, are plus points.

You will be co-advised by me and one professor at University of California, San Diego (UCSD) through the joint doctoral program between SDSU and UCSD, or by me and one professor at University of California, Irvine (UCI) through the joint doctoral CSRC program. You are required to meet minimum admission criteria, including GRE and TOEFL, at both SDSU and UCSD (or UCI). The potential research topics include, but not limited to, neural network in optimization and optimal control.

Each position will be paid at $30,000 USD per year for 9 months with tuition fee waiver. You are encouraged to take internship during the 3-month summer. San Diego is a hub for US science, technology, engineering and math-related jobs. So, the chance to have an internship here is very high. At SDSU, each Ph.D. student is considered a full-time staff. You will have all privileges as a faculty/staff, including subsidized healthcare coverage for you and your family.
