Simon Niederländer has been Professor of Automatic Control and Engineering Mathematics at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at Ingolstadt University of Applied Sciences since September 2025.
After completing his studies in Engineering Cybernetics and completing his doctorate in systems theory and control engineering at the University of Stuttgart, he gained valuable experience in industry - first as a systems and control engineer at MTU Aero Engines AG in Munich, then as a research scientist at the Siemens Technology Center in Garching.
His research focuses on dynamic systems and monotone operators with applications in convex optimisation. In teaching, he attaches particular importance to a sound mathematical and scientific education as a basis for systems and control engineering.
Born in Lower Bavaria, he is married, has two schoolchildren and enjoys spending his free time jogging, reading or playing board games with his family.
A warm welcome and good luck with his new tasks at THI!
