swarm PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships
We have 18 swarm PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships
Distributed and Network Control in Swarm Robotics
The field of robotics is rapidly advancing, with an increasing focus on cooperative and networked robotic systems. Distributed control and communication play a critical role in enabling effective coordination, decision-making, and task allocation among multiple robots. Read more
Decentralised Drone Swarm Framework for Dynamic Target Detection in Construction (Ref: FP-CG-2025)
We are seeking a highly motivated PhD researcher to develop a cutting-edge drone swarm technology that addresses real-world challenges in dynamic construction environments. Read more
Guardians of the Green: Enhancing Forest Defence with Autonomous Technologies
Supervisory Team. Dr. Danesh Tarapore and Prof. Jadu Dash. Project description. Problem. Navigating and defending forests poses a significant challenge due to their large size and complex ecosystems, necessitating robust monitoring systems. Read more
Explaining Multi-agent Systems
Understanding large complex systems allows us to closely mirror numerous natural and man-made phenomena, from the flocking behavior of birds to the flow of traffic in dense urban areas. Read more
Using Aerial Swarms for Wildfire Detection
The aim of this project is to design a human-in-the-loop aerial swarm system to detect and suppress wildfires. . Wildfire burns approximately 420 million hectares of land each year, which has a catastrophic ecological and economic effect around the world. Read more
Machine Learning Methods for Enhancing Autonomy of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in Wildfire Detection and Localisation
This research project focuses on the development of methods for intelligent wildfire detection and localisation using swarms of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Read more
Machine Learning to Build Trustworthy Robot Swarms
Supervisory Team: Mohammad Soorati. Project description. We are seeking a PhD candidate to join our cutting-edge research team (visit sooratilab.com) focused on advancing the trustworthiness and usability of multi-robot systems, particularly in the context of swarm robotics. Read more
Autonomous Exploration of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles Swarms
Autonomous exploration is an important application of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) swarm systems, where a team of networked UAVs are coordinated to explore an unknown environment collaboratively. Read more
Machine Learning Methods for Autonomous Robot Navigation, Localisation and Pipe Inspection
The research aims to develop the next generation of autonomous robots that are able to inspect pipe networks. A single robot and a swarm of robots have the task to inspect underground sewer and clean water pipe networks. Read more
Robot-Insect Interaction and Bio-Hybrid Robotics
As the world’s most successful pollinators, honeybees play a huge part in every aspect of the ecosystem. Hence, any decline in honeybee populations could pose a threat to the climate and environment. Read more
Distributed Learning and Control of Multi-Robot Systems
With the advancements of computing, communication, sensing, and control techniques, coordination of multi-robot systems has established its worth in recent years. Read more
PhD Opportunity - Neurobiology of reward learning and decision making in humans
'TO APPLY, PLEASE CLICK INSTITUTION WEBSITE'. Project outline: Imagine picking wild berries in a forest when suddenly a swarm of bees flies out from behind a bush. Read more
Group behaviour of juvenile and adult mosquitoes
Mosquitoes are vectors of devastating diseases that claim over a million human lives every year. However, the satisfactory understanding of mosquito behaviour is currently lacking. Read more
Risk aware planning for multi agent systems
This is an exciting opportunity for a Self-funded PhD studentship in the Centre for Autonomous and Cyber-Physical Systems associated with the Faculty of Engineering & Applied Sciences at Cranfield University, UK to develop an autonomous Multi-agent systems equipped with risk-averse obstacle avoidance capabilities. Read more
Cooperative Path Planning and Control of Intelligent Vehicles
Autonomous driving of intelligent vehicles has attracted significant attention in recent years due to its ability to reduce traffic congestion problems, improve traffic throughput and enhance safety of highway traffic. Read more
