Interested in joining the CoBoTaT laboratory?

We welcome inquiries from prospective PhD students, postdoctoral researchers, and visiting students and researchers interested in physical human–robot interaction, human motor control, and human-oriented control systems. We value research curiosity, dedication, and a positive attitude.

We currently have no funded positions available. However, we are happy to discuss hosting candidates with their own scholarship, fellowship, or other external funding, as well as potential collaboration on fellowship applications. Hosting arrangements depend on research fit and available supervision and laboratory resources.

Please email Tadej Petric Tadej Petrič with your CV, a brief motivation letter outlining your research interests, your proposed timeframe, and details of any secured or prospective funding.

Students

Bachelor’s and master’s students, including visiting students, are welcome to carry out research projects or thesis work at CoBoTaT, subject to available supervision. We currently cannot provide financial support for student visits.
