Odense M

The Maersk Mc-Kinney Moller Institute at University of Southern Denmark in Odense seeks to recruit several faculty members for the centres of Applied AI and Data Science, Biorobotics & Soft Robotics, and Aerial Robotics. The appointment will be as professor, associate professor, or assistant professor depending on academic qualifications. You will contribute to further excellence in the research and education of the centres within the fields, which are described below.

Research environment
The Maersk Mc-Kinney Moller Institute is an internationally recognized institute, which has maintained a leading position in robotics for more than three decades. The department is the origin of robotics research in Denmark and has spawned the world-renowned cluster of robotics in Odense with more than 130 robotics companies including Universal Robots and Mobile Industrial Robots. Building on our expertise in robotics and software, we have raised strong research centres in related domains, such as Health Informatics and Energy Informatics, and in recent years, we have also put the department in the lead of drone research.
