Wang Kun (王坤)

Zhejiang University

I obtained a bachelor’s degree from the School of Materials Science and Engineering at Shandong University. I then received a Master’s degree from Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics. Currently, I am pursuing a Ph.D. at Zhejiang University. My research interests encompass a wide range of areas including optimal guidance and control, data-driven control, and safety-critical control of autonomous vehicles.
