An interdisciplinary PhD program in Transport Systems designed to train high-level researchers and professionals capable of developing sustainable, innovative transport solutions for academia, industry, and public institutions, with international orientation and links to MIT-Portugal.
The Research Training Group AirMetro at TU Dresden invites applications for its 2026 cohort on Innovative Air Mobility. Nine fully-funded positions across topics including autonomous vehicle communication, flight trajectory design, navigation performance, turbulence modeling, distributed digital twins, and agent-based analysis.
PhD focused on smart and sustainable mobility at the University of Aveiro, developing research within a dynamic, international team. The fellowship supports early-career researchers to conduct STEM research, with guidance from experienced supervisors, contributing to innovative solutions in mobility.
Conduct high-quality research on sustainable and safe mobility for passenger and freight road transport, including topics such as driver behavior, road traffic safety, acceptance of new mobility solutions, Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS), and truck platooning.
The PhD position focuses on developing robust and adaptive communication and computing frameworks for multi-UAV operations in Innovative Air Mobility (IAM).
This PhD project examines the impact of IAM services on travel behavior using agent-based transport simulation. Thedoctoral researcher will initially work collaboratively with first-cohort researchers on IAM-related extensions withinthe MATSim framework.
