Deadline: June 21, 2024 Information for applicants Complex Systems & Networks Learning and Control Computational Mechanics Software Quality About the program The PhD program in Systems Science The PhD program in Systems Science (SyS) equips students with advanced skills for tackling research on technological, natural, economic, and social systems using mathematical models. Throughout their doctoral studies, SyS students learn various skills that enable them to create, employ, and implement techniques for analyzing and predicting complex phenomena. These techniques involve analytical, numerical, and computational models that originate from first principles or data, incorporating a range of interdisciplinary fields such as mathematics, operations research, physics, statistics, computer science, and engineering. The program encompasses several subjects such as machine learning, network science, analysis and control of dynamical systems, time-series analysis, statistical physics, complex systems theory, numerical optimization, numerical integration of differential equations, statistics, stochastic processes, agent-based models, specification languages, programming, and software analysis. SyS students acquire proficiency in these areas of study by pursuing one of four specialization tracks: Complex Systems and Networks Computational Mechanics Learning and Control Software Quality Students compose tailored study plans by choosing subjects from a wide portfolio of basic and advanced courses , covering a minimum of 150 lecture hours. SyS students also have the opp ortunity to spend a study period abroa d as visiting fellows . English is the official language at the School. Scholarships and funding All students enrolled in the PhD program receive a scholarship of about €1,35 0 /month, which includes pension contributions and results in a net salary of about €1, 200 /month for 3 years. As an exclusive additional benefit, s tudents are offered free on-campus servi ced housing and full board at the IMT canteen, worth an equivalent of about €800/ month. Furthermore, they are given a research budget of about € 4,000 to attend international academic conferences, summer and winter schools, and other similar events. Du ring visiting periods abroad, the scholarship is increased by 50% , possibly receiving further funds from the Erasmus+ program. Incoming student profiles Applicants who hold a master’s degree in computer science, engineering, physics, mathematics, statistics, or other related fields are eligible to apply for the SyS program. Outgoing student profiles Graduates of the SyS program can pursue a variety of career paths, including academic positions in engineering, computer science, physics, applied mathematics, and other related fields. Additionally, they can get opportunities in various industries, services, public and private research laboratories, study centers, regulatory centers, consulting firms, and the public sector. Former SyS students have secured positions at top universities, prestigious companies, international institutions, research centers, and innovative startups, as evidenced on the Past Students page.
