The research positions are opened as part of the PRIN PNRR project “Probabilistic Methods for Energy Transition” and they are ideally meant for young researchers.
The research program aims at studying, from the theoretical and numerical point of view, optimal control problems for the evaluation and optimization of renewable energy sources.

Candidates will be evaluated based on their scientific quality and their potential in developing research. There is no teaching obligations and knowledge of Italian is not required.
