The Computer Security Group is a research group in the Department of Information Technology and Electrical Engineering at ETH Zürich.We are interested in a variety of hot topics in the area of systems security with a special focus on hardware. The aim of the group is to improve the security of modern computer systems. To do that, we often build novel analysis techniques to uncover previously-unknown attack surfaces and when appropriate we design and implement new systems to protect against various classes of attacks. This means that the group does heavy technical work, from building low-level systems to analyzing hardware components. Examples of our research topics include hardware design security, microarchitectural security, and operating system security to name a few.  Job description As a new member of the group, you are supposed to contribute to research activities in the group and gradually build your own independent research profile according to...

The Research group in Conflict Management hosts a 5-year SNSF-funded project that aims to examine how effective peacekeeping missions are in contributing to the resolution of intra-state and non-state conflicts. The project looks at both the military and diplomatic functions of peacekeeping staff. Project background Our research is theory-driven, empirically grounded, and broad in terms of methodology. We focus on the impact of peace mediation and peacekeeping operations on the termination and resolution of armed conflicts. We examine intrastate armed conflicts between government forces and rebel groups, as well as more locally-driven non-state conflicts between organized armed groups or communal groups.We draw on approaches from political science, international relations, peace and conflict studies, security and strategic studies, and political economy. We use quantitative methods, qualitative methods, or in some cases a mix of both. Job...

The Chair of Architecture and Building Systems (A/S) is an interdisciplinary team of researchers focusing on active and passive systems for building energy supply, climate control and occupant comfort. Our research aims to contribute knowledge to the realisation of a CO2-neutral built environment that efficiently consumes and produces energy while providing high user comfort. Our projects range from components to neighbourhoods, from design to operation.The position is available from March 2023 or by agreement. The Project duration is 3 years (annual contracts). Project background The project SPEED2ZERO of the joint initiative of the ETH domain, aims to develop toolboxes, action plans and technology to enable a sustainable transformation to a net zero greenhouse gas (GHG) and biodiversity-positive Switzerland. Solutions will target immediate action conducive to halving GHG emissions by 2030, developing the required infrastructure, ensuring a resilient energy system, and...
