About Tokyo Institute of Technology

Basic information and contact details for Tokyo Institute of Technology

institution

Tokyo Tech’s three campuses — two in Japan’s clean, vibrant capital, and one in adjacent Yokohama — create a comfortable setting for a unique study experience. The long-cherished practical science and engineering education provided by the Institute allows all students to experience research from an early stage. Findings from research institutes such as ELSI are fed back into curricula, and as laboratory members, students are in close contact with the world’s top researchers. The Institute’s hands-on approach is reflected in graduate employability rankings, in which Tokyo Tech consistently excels.

Tokyo Tech provides full degree programs in English at all levels. The Global Scientists and Engineers Program (GSEP) is a transdisciplinary Bachelor of Engineering program, while the International Graduate Programs (IGP) cater to those hoping to pursue more advanced science or engineering degrees in Japan.

Various scholarships are available.

Doctoral position at Department of Electronics and Nanoengineering at Aalto University, in Espoo, Finland. DC12: Design, fabrication, and characterization of reconfigurable and time-varying optical metasurfaces Main supervisor: Prof. Viktar Asadchy[AALTO] Co-supervisors/mentors:  Prof. Rockstuhl [KIT] and Prof. Díaz-Rubio [UPV] Objectives To design optical metasurfaces capable of complex reconfigurable functionalities while restricting control to a single, or otherwise limited, discrete set of tuning parameters, enabling practical global actuation and robust device operation. To design optical metasurfaces and material platforms exhibiting time-varying responses. Using adjoint-based optimization and spatial structuring, to realize complex time-modulated medium dynamics with realistic material constraints and experimentally feasible excitation and driving schemes. To fabricate and experimentally characterize the designed prototypes, and to validate their reconfigurable and time-varying performance through quantitative comparison with analytical modeling and full-wave simulation results. This position is part of the MetaTune Doctoral Network "Reconfigurability using inversely designed metasurfaces", which has been funded under the Horizon Europe Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) program. Acquire knowledge During the thesis, the candidate will acquire a solid understanding of the theoretical and practical requirements for designing optical metasurfaces with complex reconfigurable and time-varying responses, with particular emphasis on achieving rich functionality under a single or otherwise limited set of discrete tuning parameters. In parallel, the candidate will gain in-depth knowledge of time-modulated photonic media, nonlinear optics, adjoint-based optimization strategies for high-dimensional inverse design, and realistic material and excitation constraints at optical frequencies. The candidate will also develop practical expertise in prototype fabrication, experimental characterization, and quantitative validation of measured performance against analytical models and full-wave simulations. Go to the project webpage for more information What METATUNE Offers Work contract at Aalto is for 36 months funded through the MSCA network, with the additional benefits for employees (public and universal health system, free schools, etc.). Three research stays, one 4-month at Karlsruher Institut fuer Technologie, one 3-month at Photonicsens SL in Valencia, Spain, and one 3-month at Polytechnic University of Valencia are foreseen in the research plan. Opportunity to pursue a PhD degree at a leading European university within a collaborative, international network. Training program including research-specific and transferable skills courses. Active participation in workshops, conferences, and network-wide events to build professional and scientific connections. Stimulating, multidisciplinary, and international research environment within a prestigious European training network. Starting date: Now-December 2026; negotiable. Deadline for online application: May 31, 2026 (but candidates are encouraged to apply as soon as possible). Requirements Mandatory Requirements You must have a finalised master’s degree in fields related to the research topic: Electrical Engineering, Physics, Telecommunications Engineering, Applied Physics, Optics, Material Engineering, or similar.
