Research

My research in the Cyber-physical Mobility Group focuses on the interdisciplinary intersection of software engineering, control engineering, optimization, and communications. Currently, I work in the project AutoKnigge and in the Cyber-Physical Mobility Lab.

Theses

Within the scope of my research activities, topics for final theses arise continuously. If you are interested, please contact me by e-mail or personally in my office.

Open Student Positions

Initiative applications are welcome. Please include in your application: transcript of records (Bachelor and possibly Master), short CV, and certificates.
