The CPS Rising Stars looks to recognize the accomplishments of a diverse group of researchers in cyber-physical systems. We specifically call for applications from members of underrepresented groups. In 2022, applicants represented 52 schools and across 10 degree programs.
The application window for the 2023 workshop has closed.
Eligibility
The 2023 CPS Rising Stars Workshop is open to graduate students and postdocs in Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) core research areas who are currently affiliated with a U.S. institution. CPS areas are as defined by the National Science Foundation CPS program, and include control, data analytics, machine learning including real-time learning for control, autonomy, design, Internet of Things (IoT), mixed initiatives including human-in- or human-on-the-loop, networking, privacy, real-time systems, safety, security, and verification. In addition, the workshop especially encourages women, underrepresented minorities, and persons with disabilities to apply.
Applicants should be within about 1-3 years of graduating with a PhD at the time of the workshop, or have obtained a PhD no earlier than 2020 and do not currently hold a faculty position.
The selected CPS Rising Stars will receive travel support to attend the workshop, which will cover reasonable travel expenses (e.g., flight), hotel accommodation, and meals. Note: Due to NSF funding requirements, we can only support participants who are affiliated with a U.S. institution.
