Four fully-funded PhD positions for EU/UK students, Imperial College London

Imperial College London; Centre for Doctoral Training in Theory & Simulation of Materials

Up to 4 PhD studentships available for EU and UK students (October 2015 start)

The Centre for Doctoral Training in Theory and Simulation of Materials at Imperial College London has up to four 4-year PhD studentships available for October 2015 entry. As a result of recently agreed funding from our partner organisations, these positions are fully-funded for both EU and UK candidates.

The projects will all involve fundamental science inspired by applications in the oil and gas, automotive and energy sectors, and will involve close collaboration with major organisations working in these areas.

Applicants should have interest and aptitude in theory and simulation and an excellent background (normally first class degree or equivalent) in Physics, Chemistry, Materials, Engineering or Mathematics.

Prospective applicants are encouraged to express an interest by emailing the TSM-CDT Senior Administrator miranda.smith@imperial.ac.uk as soon as possible. Further details about the projects will be provided as they become available.

Scientist

Simulating magnetic materials with Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction There is an immediate opening for a Scientist position in the Materials Science and Engineering Department, Institute of High Performance Computing, Singapore. We are looking for a   candidate who is strong in magnetic materials simulations using density-functional theory. Our interest is to understand the formation of skyrmions, especially in the evaluation of   Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction parameters, and other important magnetic properties such as exchange and crystalline anisotropies. We welcome anyone who has a good track record of research to apply. The renumeration package, which is highly competitive, will be based on the research experience of the candidate. The first appointment will be for two years and renewable. Interested candidates may send their CVs and letters of recommendation to Dr. Chee-Kwan Gan at gan.cheekwan@gmail.com . The selection of the candidate will not stop unless the ...

Postdoctoral positions in computational materials science

Two postdoctoral positions in computational materials science are available at the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research, Mainz in the Theory Department, group of Denis Andrienko ( http://www.mpip-mainz.mpg.de/~andrienk/ ). The research project concerns combining atomistic simulations and quantum modeling of charge/exciton transport properties of organic light emitting diodes. The project is funded by European Union and is a part of a broad collaboration of nine industrial and academic partners. The initial contract will be for one year, with possible renewal for up to three years. Applicants should hold a PhD degree and have a strong background in physics, physical chemistry, or theoretical chemistry. Experience in programming (C++) is essential. Interested scientists should send an application, a CV, and recommendation letters electronically to Dr. Denis Andrienko ( denis.andrienko@mpip-mainz.mpg.de ).  http://psi-k.net/jobs/postdoctoral-positions-in-computational-...
