Descripción

CiTIUS is looking for 2 outstanding PhD researchers in the framework of the H2020 project MENELAOS NT: Multimodal Environmental Exploration Systems Novel Technologies.

MENELAOSNT is a European Training Network (MSCA-ETN) which will train 15 Early-Stage Researchers (ESRs). The focus of MENELAOSNT is to apply Novel Technologies to realize multimodal – multisensor data fusion to optimally combine the information “partititions”, delivered by different sensors on different scales, with different resolutions and with different reliability.

We offer 2 PhD positions in the following areas:

  • ESR1: Fabrication of CMOS ToF sensors with 2D/3D capabilities
  • ESR2: Design of an AIC CMOS vision system for spatio-temporal event detection


__Position details
__Full-time employment contract for a period of three years.
Gross salary of 2.347,50€/month (14 payments per year) if the researcher has no family or 2.661,70€/month (14 payments per year) if the researcher is married or has dependent children. It includes medical care coverage and work accident insurance through the Spanish Health Care System, as well as retirement and unemployment benefits.
The estimated starting date will be September 1st, 2020.

__General eligibility criteria
__

  • Geographic mobility: at the time of the recruitment, the researchers must not have resided or carried out their main activity (work, studies, etc.) in Spain for more than 12 months in the 3 years prior to the recruitment date. Time spent as part of a procedure for obtaining refugee status under the Geneva Convention is not taken into account.
  • Research career: when starting their contract, expected in September 2020, selected candidates should be within the first four years of their research careers and not have been awarded a doctoral degree prior to the application.
