– security of cyber-physical systems (IoT, critical infrastructures, …)

Candidates should have an excellent background (BSc/MSc degree) in computer science (or related), ability to work on inter-disciplinary research projects, good design and programming skills, and a strong interest in at least one of the listed fields.

The positions are fully funded up to 4 years with a very competitive scholarship. More information about the PhD program is available at https://istd.sutd.edu.sg/phd/phd-overview/
