Professorship in Automation and Machine Learning

The Private University for Business and Technology (PHWT) Vechta/Diepholz, invites applications for a

Professorship in Automation and Machine Learning (M/F/D)

for its campus in Diepholz.

We expect a deepened focus on at least two of the following fields:

• Handling technology and automation
• Robotics
• Machine learning
• Application of machine learning methods in production and quality assurance
• As a special differentiation, possibly also automatic image processing in production and quality assurance
• Disciplines/topics in the degree programme in general mechanical engineering or electrical engineering.

PHWT offers degree apprenticeships (mostly bachelor’s) on its campuses in Vechta and Diepholz, for which the university cooperates with roughly 200 companies from the wider region.

Professors are expected to represent their fields in both research and teaching and participate actively in the university’s self-administration. Our close collaboration with partnering companies offers many opportunities, also for research but requires a high level of commitment too.

Appointments are subject to § 25 of the Lower Saxony Higher Education Act, which besides a PHD and relevant publications requires ideally at least 3 years of professional experience outside of university. Details about the denomination and the appointment procedure can be obtained from Prof. Dr.-Ing. Peter Blömer, Email: pbloemer@phwt.de. 

This is a permanent position. German dominates as language of tuition however, lectures in fluent English are possible too and candidates that are prepared to learn German are encouraged to apply. Please send your application with meaningful documents, indication of fields you focus on and your list of publications by mail and as one single PDF to the President,
Prof. Dr. Dennis De, praesidium@phwt.de by latest September 30. 2024. Further information about our university can be found under www.phwt.de.
