Position: Research appointment (pre-doc) Institute: Uni. Bologna

Posted on: 10/07/2026 Deadline: 31/07/2026

Scientific-Disciplinary Group

09/IIET-01 - Electrical Engineering

Description

This activity is part of the “Ionic PROPulsion in atmosphere” IPROP European project, which aims to advance ionic air-breathing propulsive systems beyond the pioneering stage by exploring their capabilities and enhancing their performance. The goal is to design and build an airship model (a technological demonstrator) equipped with ionic propulsion. To achieve this, suitable power electronics must be designed and developed to supply the different propulsion thrusters installed on the airship.
