Dear all,PhD positions 2009/2010 in EE,
University of Ghent, Belgium

November

Fully paid 4 years Ph.D.
positions within the Electromagnetics Group

At present several fully paid 4 years Ph.D. positions are available

within the Electromagnetics Group of the Dept. of Information

Technology. Apart from a Master’s degree in Electrical or Physical

Engineering and good knowledge of English, basic (graduate)

knowledge in Electromagnetics and high-frequency electronics is

sufficient.



The Ph.D. candidate will be provided with all guidance

and hardware and software tools necessary to perform state-of-the

art research in one of the following fields:

• High-frequency behavior of Integrated Circuits (ICs) with a

special focus on ICs for the automotive industry. This research will

be conducted in cooperation with Flemish industry partners, such as

Melexis and ON Semiconductor, and also within a consortium of well-

known European electronics manufacturers, such as Philips, NXP,

Bosch, Infineon, …

• Flexible and implantable antennas (in cooperation with Recticel

and Flanders’ Drive)

• Design and modeling of advanced submicron interconnect

technologies of ICs (in cooperation with Agilent Technologies)

• Advanced time-domain (FDTD) and finite element (FE) techniques for

the simulation of antennas for usage within the ADS-framework of

Agilent Technologies

• Detection of concealed objects with millimeter waves (within a

Strategic Basic Research project of the IWT) and early detection of

breast tumors

• Fast Maxwell solvers for very large and complex structures in

cooperation with foreign research groups in the USA, Finland, Italy,

Turkey, and Israel.

As a researcher within the
Electromagnetics Group, you will be part

of a team that has reached the top of the international scientific

community for more than 20 years and this will allow you to fully

develop your creative abilities. During these four years, you will

regularly take part in international congresses and upon your

request an internship in a foreign research group can be arranged.

The Ph.D. research itself can be focused on more fundamental

investigations as well as on innovative applied research in close

collaboration with industry.

Through intensive coaching
by senior researchers and professors and

through cooperation with the Electromagnetics Group’s academic and

industrial partners, the candidate will be trained as a highly

skilled scientist and design engineer. Upon completion of the four

years program, the Ph.D. graduate will be ready for a successful

academic career or to hold an important position in a high-tech

company.

Interested candidates are
requested to send their curriculum to Dr.

D. Vande Ginste ([EMAIL PROTECTED]), Prof. H. Rogier

([EMAIL PROTECTED]), or Prof. D. De Zutter (Fellow IEEE)

([EMAIL PROTECTED]). Please provide sufficient details on the

Electromagnetics and high-frequency electronics courses in your

curriculum.
