Position Details (PhD Program)

The mission of the Department of Electrical Engineering at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) is to acquire,
share and transfer knowledge and understanding in the whole field of
Electrical Engineering through education, research and valorization.

Electrical Engineering at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) aims to be a research-driven and design-oriented world-class institute by having education, research and valorization reinforce each other. Activities share an application-oriented character, a high degree of complexity and a large synergy between multiple facets of the field.

The mission of our Electrical Engineering department is captured in the three mission phrases we formulated 15 years ago. We work towards:

  • a ‘Smart Sustainable Society’, 
  • a ‘Connected World’, and
  • a healthy humanity (‘Care & Cure’).

These goals are strongly connected to the much more elaborate Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations.

The department positions itself as a strong partner for interdisciplinary applied research and design within the Brainport region around Eindhoven, and as a globally oriented organization for Electrical Engineering research and education in its full breadth.

Scientific career

After a PhD, many scientists opt for a postdoctoral period, often in another country or at another university, mostly for several years. It is an opportunity to broaden and deepen your research skills, contribute to the research field, and build up a track record. TU/e also offers (international) postdoctoral researchers the opportunity to enhance their research experience.

After your postdoctoral experience, you can apply for a Development Track as an Assistant Professor. TU/e encourages talented scientists to develop into assistant and associate professors. Successful associate professors can eventually take the step to a professors’ position.

Research groups include:

  • Control systems 
  • Electrical Energy Systems 
  • Electromagnetics 
  • Electromechanics and Power Electronics 
  • Electronic Systems 
  • Electro-Optical Communication 
  • Integrated Circuits
