I am looking for Post Docs and Ph.D. students with self-motivation and strong interests in power and energy areas which include BUT NOT limited to:
Mathematical programming and optimization
Power distribution systems and microgrids
Power system modeling and identification
Machine learning and data mining
Preference will be given to those who have strong mathematical background, good programming skills, and are familiar with one or more of the following tools: MATLAB/Simulink, C/C++ ,Python, OpenDSS, PSS/E, CPLEX, GAMS, AMPL.
If you are interested in my research, please apply to the graduate program of ISU and email me at wzy@iastate.edu.
Iowa State University has maintained one of the nation's leading power and energy university programs for over 60 years. Faculty in this area work together within the Electric Power and Energy Systems (EPES) group in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering. These faculty participate heavily in the ISU EPRC and the PSERC. Iowa State's nearly 2000-acre campus is located in the city of Ames, Iowa, which is consistently ranked within the top ten most livable small cities in the nation.
