Curriculum Vitae
Georg Schildbach obtained his Masters degrees in Applied Mechanics (Dipl.-Ing.) and Industrial Engineering (Dipl. Wirtsch.-Ing.) from the Darmstadt University of Technology, Germany, in 2008.
After two years in the financial industry, he joined the Automatic Control Laboratory at ETH Zurich, Switzerland, as a doctoral researcher. He obtained his Ph.D. degree in the field of control and optimization in 2014. The topic of his dissertation was risk-aware optimization for planning and control.
In 2014, he joined the Department of Mechanical Engineering at UC Berkeley, U.S.A., where he was the Associate Director of the Hyundai of Excellence. From 2016 to 2017, he worked as a research engineer and project manager at Elektronische Fahrwerksysteme GmbH in Ingolstadt, Germany. The main fields of his work were vehicle dynamics control and automated driving.
Since 2018, he is a Professor of Mechatronics at the University of Luebeck. His research interests are real-time optimization, predictive and learning-based control, and safety and reliability for autonomous systems.
