TU/e - Student assistant for electronically actuated soft matter

 We have a vacancy available for a student assistant with a background in EE, in the field of advanced materials for soft robotic applications at the Department of Chemical Engineering and Chemistry, Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), The Netherlands

Research background
Soft robotics is a relatively new subfield of robotics that deals with constructing robotic functions from compliant materials. Soft technologies and integrated soft systems can revolutionize the use of robotic devices, for instance in applications where elastic versatility and safe human/machine interactions are needed. It is predicted, and certainly has the potential, to lead to the development of radically new generations of machines. The examples are numerous. In the medical world, they will increasingly assist surgery, in-vivo therapeutic treatments or contribute to the rehabilitation of disabilities by exoskeletons. Soft robotic functions have the perspective to enhance the communication between man and machine or between machines mutually. We foresee that we can make materials that can feel, sense, behave and act as human skins, but with enhanced sensitivity and accuracy. They can be used as stand-alone and autonomous devices, but also be applied as coating or integrated with electronics or even with biological material to perform functions not accessible otherwise. And as a long-term perspective one can foresee the development of evolutionary self-developing soft robotics following nature’s approach to intelligent soft machines.

Projects description

You will be joining a multidisciplinary research group, where we develop responsive materials that address the advancing needs in man-machine communication, specialized medicine and miniaturized mechanics. More information can be found at www.danqingliu.nl.

A key aspect of our projects is to translate molecular effects to macroscopic phenomena which, in turn translate into (robotic) devices, and especially haptic applications. You will join a team where you will be responsible for developing electrical circuits to address material actuation!

Profile
We are looking for talented, motivated and student assistant who meet the following requirements:
  • Skills in electric engineering. 
  • Basic experience with programming is much appreciated.
  • Prior knowledge in soft matters, responsive materials and experience in microscopic techniques and device fabrication/ characterization are appreciated.
  • Ability to independently work within a dynamic team and multidisciplinary research environment.
  • Fluent in spoken and written English.

Salary is based on the experience of the students.

TU/e - 5EPB0 - EM2 SLT Tutor

For the Electromagnetics II course (2022-2023, Q4) we are looking for tutors for the student-led tutorials. (If you have experienced them yourselves, you can skip to the next part 😊) During these student-led tutorials, students are asked to prepare a set of exercises. On Canvas, students are asked to tick the exercises which they have prepared, or at least made a serious attempt on. During the SLT, students are then randomly selected to present their work.

Your task as TA is to be a moderator as it is a STUDENT-led tutorial. The students should be in charge and by discussions amongst the students, they should eventually all understand all exercises. You are there to guide and motivate the students in the right direction. It should therefore be important that you have also prepared the SLT’s. These SLT’s will take place every week on Tuesday morning.

As an EMII TA, you’ll be responsible for leading the practice hours for a small group of approximately 20-25 students.

The main tasks involve:

-       Follow a preliminary training about the novel approach that is to be implemented. This training is planned for Q1 and/or Q2.
-       Prepare and study a set of exercises that the students need to solve each week.
-       Lead the practice hours according to the novel methodology. This task will take two (academic) hours per week in Q4.

The TA will be hired for a total of 40 hours, consisting of 2 weekly hours of SLT and 3 hours of preparation including some additional hours for a training and workshop before the start of the course. 

So, if you feel EMII should become more spot-on, or if you feel you’d like to help others go through this subject and enjoy it, or you would like to contribute to the ever-increasing quality of education at our faculty, please send contact information and/or questions to:

TU/e - Student-assistant Study+ Group

Join our network!

Students may need extra support during their studies due to a disability, chronic illness or mental health issues. Extra support is also for students who are caregivers or have/are expecting a child. 

The TU/e has been improving her policy on studying with extra support since 2020. However, to make information about and guidance for studying with extra support more accessible to all students, we are looking for students who want to help us with this!


We are looking for student-assistants who will contribute to and supervise a community for 1 day a week (8 hours) that facilitates activities and student-to-student communication on studying with extra support. Your contributions consider organizing relevant activities, being the ears and eyes for students who need extra support during their studies and communicate this when needed to people who are responsible or can initiate a change (e.g. the student advisory committee). Moreover, a platform was build to enable students to ask each other for advice or share experiences. This platform has already been built by us, but has to be monitored. 


In addition, we are looking for students who want to join our advisory committee. We advise the university and come up with new plans to put studying with extra support on the map. We have meetings every 2 months.


To join or help us you don’t have to be a student with extra support!

Are you interested in contributing and supervising the platform and/or joining our advisory committee? Send an email to lighthouse@tue.nl
