This opportunity is for AAE Seniors who are considering pursuing a PhD and who meet the qualifications below:

The research group of Purdue AAE Professor Daniel DeLaurentis has several funded graduate research assistant opportunities for outstanding PhD-seeking graduate students interested in high-speed systems/mission design research, especially enabled by AI/ML. Due to Department of Defense (DoD) regulations related to this research area, successful applicants for these graduate research assistantships will be US citizens.

To encourage high quality PhD aspirants, the stipend for the assistantship will be well-higher than the normal rate for new PhD students. You can see a glimpse of some ongoing projects on the "Research/Ongoing Projects" page of the group's website: https://engineering.purdue.edu/SoSL.

If you meet the ALL above qualifications, please apply for the Purdue AAE PhD program and/or contact Professor DeLaurentis (ddelaure@purdue.edu) if you have preliminary questions.
