Dr.ir. Roel Dobbe profile

I am an assistant professor in the Engineering Systems and Services department – section ICT, in the Technology, Policy and Management department at Delft University of Technology. I have a background in control, intelligent systems and energy. My research addresses the integration of data-driven technologies in societal infrastructure and institutions, with a focus on safety, sustainability and justice. I hence build AI systems and think about their political and organizational embedding. I have expertise in blending data-driven and formal control methods, and in addressing ethical implications and normative dimensions in the practice of developing AI systems.
