Ngoc Thinh Nguyen

Short Biography

Ngoc Thinh Nguyen received his Engineering degree in Mechatronics from Hochiminh-city University of Technology, Vietnam in 2016 and his PhD in Control Engineering at the Laboratory of Conception and Integration of Systems (LCIS) of Grenoble INP Institute of Engineering and Management, France in 2019.
In 2016, he obtained the ERASMUS scholarship in 2016 for conducting his engineering graduation project and the MERNT grant (from the French Ministry of Higher Education, Research and Innovation) for pursuing his PhD, both within the laboratory LCIS, France. In 2019, he received the PhD grant InProTUC from Technische Universität Chemnitz within a PhD exchange program.
From February 2020, Ngoc Thinh Nguyen joined the Institute for Robotics and Cognitive Systems as a post-doc researcher.

Research Interests

His research interests include modeling and control for nonlinear dynamical systems (especially for unmanned aerial vehicles, UAVs), optimal control design and optimal trajectory generation.
