Description

Environnement et contexte de travail

Notre établissement fait partie de l'Université PSL. Située au cœur de Paris, celle-ci fait dialoguer tous les domaines du savoir, de l'innovation et de la création. Classée parmi les 50 premières universités mondiales, elle forme au plus près de la recherche des chercheurs, artistes, ingénieurs, entrepreneurs ou dirigeants conscients de leur responsabilité sociale, individuelle et collective.

Structure d'accueil

Your environment :

The Centre O.I.E. is a joint research team MINES Paris - PSL/ ARMINES, whose activities are at the crossroads of energy, the environment and Earth observation.

The work of O.I.E. contributes to three areas of activity:

•Development of energy-specific meteorology for the assessment and prediction of renewable resources, including solar energy;

•Analysis and decision support in terms of reducing the environmental, social and economic impacts of transport, energy production and use;

•Dissemination of scientific data through web services in an international collaborative environment (OGC, GEOSS, IRENA, IEA).

The research of O.I.E. is related to the evaluation, modelling and exploitation of renewable energy resources yesterday, today and tomorrow.

Mission

Your challenges and responsabilities :

•conduct (i.e. contribute, conduct, supervise, find funding, communicate, publish and popularize) cutting-edge international research, of an academic and/or partnership nature in the field of Earth observation data sciences applied to solar energy.

•contribute and be responsible for teaching activities for different levels of higher education, notably for the cycle of civil engineers of MINES Paris – PSL, and the different formations of MINES Paris – PSL

•mentor and advise students engaged in research projects in the field of solar energy and data science.

•supervise and direct doctoral theses.

•collaborate with other researchers and departments within MINES Paris - PSL, as well as with external academic partners, or the socio-economic sector of the territory, France or internationally.

•contribute to the institutional service by participating in academic committees, recruitment activities, and other activities to support the missions of the O.I.E. centre of the DEP department of MINES Paris – PSL.
