This page contains informations about and for the students doing research with me. The interns will find here informations about internship positions currently available, while sub-pages gather some generic links on methodology and a description of the methodology I like to follow with my students. Other people will find the list of the students that are currently working with me and the ones who worked with me in the past.

Open positions

Research Internships

Currently (July 2024), I have two open engineering positions, for 24 months contracts:

I also have one open position for prospective engineers master students (M1):
