Join us

We are a collaborative, ambitious and diverse research team working at the forefront of process systems engineering (PSE) and artificial intelligence (AI). We look for others who share our enthusiasm.

We offer projects in deep learning, computer vision, generative AI, data mining, process modeling, process systems engineering and optimization. Projects can focus on fundamental research or on industrial applications.

Open positions and thesis topics

Members of the Process Intelligence Research group

What we offer

  • Research at the interface of AI and chemical engineering

    Projects in our research themes, from generative AI for engineering diagrams to optimization and hybrid modeling.

  • Close contact with industry

    Many projects are carried out with industry partners, so the methods are tested on real engineering problems.

  • Supervision and feedback

    Regular meetings with your supervisor and an open culture for asking questions and giving and receiving constructive feedback.

  • Open science

    We publish our results and release methods as open-source software.

  • An inclusive group

    We care about the mental and physical well-being of our members and foster a positive, inclusive and welcoming atmosphere. We value the diversity of our members, their backgrounds and their perspectives.

  • TU Delft

    The group is part of the Department of Chemical Engineering at Delft University of Technology.

Who we are looking for and how to apply

We are looking for highly motivated undergraduate and graduate students from TU Delft and visiting researchers. Please note that our capacity for MSc thesis students is currently very limited, so we can only accept a small number of MSc students and host visiting master students only in exceptional cases. We cannot host undergraduate students from other universities at the moment. An excellent background in Python is necessary for all projects in our group.

If you are interested, please send a brief email stating your motivation, background, expectations and desired starting date, and attach your CV and grade overview. Please send your application to a.schweidtmann@tudelft.nl.

We currently do not have open PhD or postdoc positions. Thesis topics, fellowship opportunities and future vacancies are listed under open positions.
