ABOUT ME
Welcome to my website!
I am Filippos Tzortzoglou, a Ph.D. student at Cornell University in the Civil and Environmental Engineering Department. I am fortunate enough to be advised by the warmest person in our community, Prof. Malikopoulos! My research interests lie in the area of control theory with applications in connected and automated vehicles. For an analytical preview of the projects I am involved in click here.
I have received an Integrated Master's Diploma from the Technical University of Crete in Production Engineering and Management with a grade of 8.11 out of 10 (8.11/10).
Aside from my research, I’m passionate about soccer and a devoted Arsenal F.C. supporter! Let's go gunners!
I can be reached through email via ft253@cornell.edu, ftzortzo99@gmail.com and through linkedin.
