【普渡大学】Funded PhD position in Robotics/ME

One fully-funded PhD position is available starting from Fall 2020 at the School of Engineering Technology, Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN. Visiting students/scholars and collaborations are always welcome.

About the PI
Dr. Dongming Gan is an Assistant Professor in the School of Engineering Technology at Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN. He has PhD degrees in Robotics and Mechanical Engineering from King's College London and Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications. His main research interests fall into the area of robotics, mechanism and machine theory with focus on design, modeling, control and development of intelligent reconfigurable robotic systems, compliant robot manipulators, and flexible light-weight wearable devices for assisting humans in manufacturing, health care and domestic human-robot co-existing scenarios with safe physical interactions and collaborations. He has published over 80 international journal and conference papers on those topics with 3 patents.
Dongming is an Associate Editor of the Springer journal, Mechanism and Machine Theory, a leading journal of mechanism research, an Associate Editor of IMechE Part C: Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science, a Topic Editor of Mechanical Sciences, a Review Editor on the Editorial Board of Bionics and Biomimetics in Frontiers Journal, and a Guest Editor in Applied Bionics and Biomechanics. He is an elected committee member of the ASME DED Mechanism and Robotics Committee and a member of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). He has served on program committees and symposiums of several international conferences including IEEE Cyber 2019, IEEE/ASME ReMAR 2012-2021, SoSE 2013-2017, Parallel 2014/2020 and ASME IDETC 2012-2020.

About this position
This position is to research on compliant robotics with focus on design and development of variable-stiffness actuators and compliant manipulators with switchable role in safe human-robot interaction. The work will involve in creating new concepts of compliant actuators with their design, modeling, prototyping and control. Experiments for physical human-robot interaction will be conducted and explored as validation and feedback to the design and development cycle. A new robot manipulator is expected with potential commercialization in the future.

Qualification
The ideal candidate is expected to have a strong background in robotics, mechanism design, modeling, analysis and control.

Contact
Interested individuals should send Prof. Gan (dgan@purdue.edu) the full CV (including GPA , TOELF and GRA scores, research experience, publications, and contact information of three references) and the electronic copy of transcripts. Review of applications will begin immediately and will continue until filled.

虽然是机器人，不过稍微沾AERO 方向的中国学生都过不来签证，和现在的EO 没关系

我不是专业人士，这种问题我给不了意见的。还是咨询律师好一些。

请问有什么解决办法吗？还是说录了白录，彻底没法去？

话说这个学历和普渡是一样的吗？这个学院是归属在普渡的polytechnic institute下面

难怪，高中同学在普渡西拉法叶分校，说没这位老师
