BIOGRAPHY
Truong X. Nghiem received his doctoral degree in electrical and systems engineering from the University of Pennsylvania. He was an assistant professor, then an associate professor at Northern Arizona University from 2018 until he joined UCF in 2024.
Nghiem received the NSF CAREER Award in 2023, the NSF ERI Award in 2022 and the Best Paper Award from the ACM/IEEE International Conference on Cyber-Physical Systems in 2018. He is a senior member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers and a member of the Association for Computing Machinery.
Nghiem’s research interests include the integration of control, optimization, machine learning and computation to address cyber-physical system challenges across various domains. His research laboratory, the intelligent Cyber-Physical Systems (iCPS) Lab, focuses on developing the scientific and engineering foundations of intelligent cyber-physical systems, with applications such as digital twins, smart buildings & energy systems, autonomous vehicles and robotics. Research areas include, but are not limited to, scientific machine learning, artificial intelligence, control theory and optimization.
