Benben Jiang Associate Professor I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Automation at Tsinghua University, where I currently serve as Deputy Director of the Institute of Systems Engineering. Prior to the current position, I was a Postdoctoral Associate at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) from 2016 to 2020. I received the B.Eng. in automation from Zhejiang University in 2010 and the Ph.D. in control science and engineering from Tsinghua University in 2015. Dr. Jiang is a recipient of the 2016 Prize in Informatics/Computer Science from the Dimitris Chorafas Foundation, Switzerland, and received the 2022 Intelligent Computing Innovators of China from the DeepTech. My research interests include artificial intelligence driven computational energy methodologies, trustworthy machine learning and their applications. Here is my Tsinghua's personal homepage and Google Scholar profile. Our group constantly looks for highly self-motivated postdoc candidates with backgrounds in artificial intelligence, machine learning, control theory, energy, etc. Outstanding postdoc candidates are encouraged to directly email your interests with resume/CV to bbjiang@tsinghua.edu.cn. Outstanding undergraduates/graduates interested in research with our group are also welcome to email your resume/CV. For postdocs, please check HERE for Shuimu Tsinghua Scholar Program; For international students, scholarship information can be accessed HERE. |
