Research Opportunities

Study and development of optical sensors for monitoring water quality.

Work description

This scholarship is part of the ATE project, which is integrated into the Recovery and Resilience Plan. It aims to develop and implement optical sensors in an industrial context for offshore applications. Various sensors will be used to monitor critical parameters for assessing water quality, focusing on measuring turbidity. This scholarship aims to research and develop an optical sensor for evaluating turbidity in marine environments.
