PhD Student Positions
In-Situ Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM)
FACULTY POSITIONS Materials and Metallurgical Engineering Department The Materials and Metallurgical Engineering Department at New Mexico Tech has openings for two tenure-track faculty positions at the assistant or associate level beginning August, 2012. Exceptional candidates with leadership skills will also be considered for a full professor position. We invite applications from any field of materials science and engineering with emphasis on the following topics: (a) advanced processing of materials for structural and/or other multifunctional applications, and (b) materials in the area of bioengineering. Both topics may address structure and behavior at any length scale (nano to bulk or multiscale). Interdisciplinary research is particularly encouraged. The Materials Department offers bachelor’s through doctoral degrees, and the selected candidates are expected to demonstrate excellence in both teaching and research that include graduate and undergraduate students.
Three PhD positions are available for graduate students to conduct a joint research program on in-situ TEM of energy materials at the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) and Michigan Technological University (MTU). The students will be admitted to the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Michigan Technological University and will have the opportunity to spend two or three years of their PhD research program at the University of Illinois at Chicago to use the new ARM 200CF STEM with Cs Aberration Corrected and EELS/EDS capabilities. Qualifications: Outstanding students with interests and background on transmission electron microscopy characterization of nanomaterials are encouraged to apply. Students who have previous research experience on electron microscopy of MetalInsulator Transition, Piezoelectric Energy Harvesting, Thermoelectrics, and Li-ion Batteries are also encouraged.
Applications must include a cover letter, current resume including list of publications, a summary of research interests, and teaching interests/ philosophy, plus at least three references. This position will remain open until filled, but candidates are encouraged to apply by May 30, 2012 for full consideration. Apply to: New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology, Human Resources, 801 Leroy Place, Brown Hall, Box 023, Socorro, NM 87801. Questions regarding this position may be directed to Dr. Nikolai Kalugin at [email protected]. For further information about New Mexico Tech and Socorro, New Mexico, go to our website at www.nmt.edu.
How to Apply: An interested student should send CV, sample publications, and contact information for three references to [email protected] and [email protected]. For submission, please merge all the files into a single PDF file. Closing Dates: The positions are available starting summer 2012, fall 2012, or spring 2013. The applications will be reviewed in the order that they are received until the positions are filled.
