Örebro University and the School of Science and Technology are looking for a doctoral student for the doctoral programme in Chemistry (alternatively Chemistry with specialization in environmental science), concluding with a licentiate degree.

The doctoral study is positioned at the interdisciplinary Man-Technology-Environment Research Centre (MTM) at Örebro University (http://www.oru.se/mtm), which conducts state of the art applied research to advance knowledge on the fate and risks of potentially harmful chemicals to humans and the environment.

Project description
The doctoral studies will be conducted in a project that studies per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from waste management with the aim to advance the scientific understanding of circulating PFAS and bring new knowledge into waste treatment development to provide for a non-toxic environment and circular economy. Specific tasks included in the project are i) setting up field work and sampling at waste management sites, ii) development of novel methodologies for characterization of total PFAS using organic fluorine measurement in combination with non-target screening; and iii) produce data on leakage and fate of total PFAS.

The successful candidate has demonstrated knowledge in organic chemistry and analytical chemistry. Knowledge in environmental chemistry and mass spectrometry (MS) is an advantage, as well as experience in extraction of different environmental matrices and PFAS analysis using LC-MS/MS.

The programme and the doctoral studentship
The doctoral programme consists of courses and an independent research project that you will present in a licentiate thesis. The programme concludes with a licentiate degree and comprises 120 credits, which corresponds to two years of full-time study. There is a possibility to continue to a doctoral degree (in total 240 credits) providing that additional funding is available.

Our ambition is for your doctoral studies to be stimulating and purposeful throughout the programme until you have obtained your degree. A thorough introduction will therefore get you off to a good start and provide a solid foundation on which you can build your studies. As a doctoral student at Örebro University, you will be offered a specially tailored seminar series, covering matters ranging from doctoral programme rules and careers to support during the study period and networking.

The place on the programme is linked to a full-time doctoral studentship for the duration of the study programme. More information on doctoral studentships, part-time studies and part-time doctoral studentships can be found in the Regulations Handbook. The initial salary for a doctoral studentship is SEK 29100 a month.

The doctoral studentship is a tailored form of employment for students enrolled on a doctoral programme. It guarantees employment for the duration of the doctoral programme (given that the studies progress).

Entry requirements and selection
For admission to doctoral studies, applicants are required to meet both general entry requirements and specific entry requirements. In addition, applicants must be considered in other respects to have the ability required to benefit from the programme. For a full account of the entry requirements, refer to the admissions regulations as well as to Annex 2 to the general syllabus for Chemistry.

Applicants meet the specific entry requirements for doctoral studies in Chemistry if he or she has received a passing grade in courses of at least 120 credits, including an independent project at the advanced course level or on the second cycle, in chemistry alternatively in a related subject area. The provision that a related subject area may provide access to the programme only applies on admission to the programme specialisations in life science or environmental science. A person who has acquired substantially corresponding knowledge, in Sweden or abroad, also meets the specific entry requirements.

Information
For more information about the project, contact Associate Professor Anna Kärrman (phone +46 19 301401, email anna.karrman@oru.se). For more information about the programme and the doctoral studentship, contact deputy Head of Unit Associate Professor Ingrid Ericson Jogsten (phone +46 19 301209, email ingrid.ericson@oru.se).
