Post Doctoral Positions

Middle East Technical University, Northern Cyprus Campus, promotes diversity in its hiring, promotion, and development of its personnel and does not discriminate on the basis of race, sex, color, national origin, religion, marital status or disability.

Thank  you for your interest in Post-Doctoral  Positions at the
  Middle  East Technical University, Northern Cyprus Campus

Applications are currently being requested  in the following fields and areas:

1. Computer Engineering / Computer  Sciences or Software Engineering, "Agent-Based Modeling and Simulation", prior knowledge and experience in Cognitive Science, Agent-Based Simulation, Social Simulation, Artificial Intelligence, specifically intelligent agents field, and/or Multi Agent Systems is advantageous. In social simulations, including the user social behavioral modeling, the cognitive abilities are the most important properties that an intelligent and social agent must own. Unfortunately, the state-of-the-art autonomous agent architectures (e.g., rule-based systems, utility-based and goal-based agents, etc.) generally are lack of the cognitive abilities. We believe that an agent with these capabilities will significantly improve the user behavioral modeling and social testing.

2. Civil Engineering / Geotechnical Engineering, "Macro- and Micro-scale investigation of ground improvement techniques", prior knowledge and experience in numerical methods in Geotechnical Engineering (such as Finite Difference Method (FDM), Finite Element Method (FEM), Boundary Element Method (BEM), Discontinuous Deformation Analysis (DDA) method, Discrete Element Method (DEM), Particle Flow Method (PFM) etc.) and soil improvement techniques will be advantageous.

3. Electrical and Electronics Engineering, "Channel estimation using AI techniques for underwater communications". Underwater acoustic communication is essential for various applications, including environmental monitoring, and underwater exploration. Accurate channel estimation in this context is critical for ensuring reliable and efficient communication. This research project will study novel techniques to perform channel estimation and apply the proposed solutions to develop underwater channel equalizers. Prior knowledge about wireless communications, signals and systems, RF/Microwave and acoustics are needed for this post.
