Hereby advertises a position as Assistant professor in Materials Science with specialization in inorganic materials for efficient and high-rate conversion and capture technologies (WISE Fellow)

Duties
An Assistant Professor's duties may comprise educational responsibilities or research, and administrative tasks. Assistant Professors are responsible for monitoring developments within their subject areas and developments in the wider community that are significant to their role as a faculty member at a higher education institution. The holder of the appointment will participate in teaching at undergraduate and advanced levels. However, for this specific position, the balance of duties is tilted more towards research than teaching. The position as a WISE Fellow gives you the opportunity to develop your own research track at IFM and be active in the WISE program regarding conferences, workshops, and networking. The position may also involve leading multi-partnership projects (nationally and internationally) and participating in the management of activities. As a WISE Fellow and Assistant Professor at Linköping University, you will supervise students in the Faculty of Science and Engineering's various programmes, as well co-supervise PhD students. The work may include the design and responsibility of new courses. As teaching and/or research takes place in English, you must be able to demonstrate the ability to teach and conduct research in English.

Qualifications
An applicant who has received a Degree of Doctor or has the equivalent academic expertise shall be qualified for this appointment.

Priority shall be given to a person who has been awarded a doctoral degree or achieved equivalent academic expertise no more than five years before the deadline for applications for employment as research fellow. A person who has been awarded a doctoral degree or has achieved equivalent expertise at a previous date may, however, be considered in special circumstances. Special circumstances is here used to describe: sick leave, parental leave, and other similar circumstances

Grounds for assessment
As grounds for assessment when appointing a research fellow, the level of proficiency required to qualify for the appointment shall apply. For this position special weight is given to scholarly proficiency, followed by teaching proficiency, in turn followed by remaining proficiencies which should be considered equally.

Scholarly proficiency must have been demonstrated through: original research resulting in publication, through planning and managing research, and through the ability to obtain research grants. Scholarly proficiency can also be demonstrated through the ability to achieve results in research through collaboration with other teachers and through the ability to provide information about research.

Your background is focused towards experimental research related to clean energy and sustainability, in particular, the physics and chemistry of functional surfaces and processes for, e.g., water splitting and/or efficient capture and conversion of CO2. You need to have extensive experience from characterization of materials with respect to such processes. In particular, we are looking for expertise in characterization of catalysts in the form of functional ceramic materials, and expertise in evaluation of catalytic-active sites, reactions (including intermediates) and reaction mechanisms for, e.g., water splitting and/ CO2 reduction. The goal is to perform fundamental science investigations for development of efficient and high-rate capture and conversion technologies. The position also includes responsibility for establishing an experimental research platform for characterization of inorganic materials for catalytic reactions.

Your required documented expertise in this area must be evident from scientific leadership (e.g., leading authorship in publications), attracted funding/recognition, and supervision. You are particularly suitable for the position if you have experience from being in charge of lab activities in the area of the announced position, potentially including setting up a functional laboratory for capture/conversion technologies. Of particular merit is previous research on inorganic materials as catalysts.

Teaching proficiency is demonstrated through the ability to convey relevant knowledge and skills, to stimulate students such that they drive their own learning process, to create engagement and interest in the subject area, and the ability to structure and organise both the content and forms of work in relation to the goals of the subject area. In addition, the teaching proficiency must have been demonstrated through the ability to contribute to the development and renewal of education and the ability to reflect on their own attitude to education and the results of their work.
