Join the Aviation Think Tank!

Have you ever wondered what tomorrow’s air transport might look like? As the aviation think tank in Germany – consisting of young and ambitious experts from various disciplines – our goal is to provide science-based answers. Located in Taufkirchen near Munich, we offer a modern working environment with open ears and doors. We are always looking for passionate and creative minds to help us push today’s boundaries to new heights.

Shape the future of aviation with us today and join us as:

Your Tasks

  • In your thesis you will conduct a systematic literature review as a basis for identifying existing approaches, modelling elements, and research gaps related to contrail mitigation through airline operational measures
  • You will analyse relevant modelling approaches with respect to their decision variables, constraints, objectives, data requirements, solution algorithms, and mitigation potential
  • Additionally, you will identify in which stages of the airline planning process contrail-aware measures can be integrated
  • Finally, a test dataset will be given to you, and you will have to explore the potential influence of flight rescheduling on contrail formation. Based on this analysis, you will illustrate how contrail-aware considerations could be integrated into airline scheduling models

  • You have proven skills in one or more of the following areas: mathematical optimization, data analysis, or scheduling
  • Knowledge in the field of aviation, in particular airline planning processes, is a plus
  • Additionally, you possess experience in programming, preferably with Python
  • Self-reliance, reliability, and a high level of self-organisation are among your strengths
  • You thrive in a connected team environment and are eager to improve
