Machine learning meets control theory: Fully funded PhD and postdoc positions in Munich

Call |

The DFG-funded Research Training Group METEOR is recruiting! Interested in conducting interdisciplinary research at the intersection of machine learning and control theory? Join the METEOR team in Munich in April 2026 and apply for a fully funded PhD position by November 13th.

The Research Training Group "Machine Learning and Control Theory: Exploring Synergies, Complementarities and Mutual Benefits" (METEOR) is offering 10 PhD and 2 postdoctoral positions ranked according to the German TV-L E13 scale (100%), for periods of four years (PhD) and three years (postdoc) respectively, starting in April 2026.

METEOR is a joint initiative between the University of Munich (LMU) and the Technical University of Munich (TUM), funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG). It aims to train a new generation of researchers specializing in the intersection of machine learning and control theory for complex dynamical systems. The RTG will pursue four main research themes:

  • Modeling and Quantification of Uncertainty for Robust Control
  • Representation for Dynamical Systems and Control
  • Control Theory for Machine Learning Algorithm Design
  • Formal Analysis of Machine Learning Algorithms via Control Theory
