A focus on non-woven and recycled fibres
The Department of Textile Technology at the Swedish School of Textiles is now seeking an Assistant Senior Lecturer in Textile Technology with a focus on non-woven and recycled fibres, in order to develop and conduct research and teaching in the field of textile technology. The research group for advanced textile structures, led by Professor Nawar Kadi, focuses on non-woven fibres as well as the biological and mechanical fractionation of recycled fibre. In recent years, the research group has grown significantly and has established an advanced research environment focused on fibres, yarn, yarn structures, textile structures, as well as the mechanical recycling of textiles. The focus is on natural fibres and biodegradable polymer fibres. Teaching, course coordination, and examination will mainly be within freestanding courses and the Bachelor's and Master's programmes in textile technology, but there will be some teaching in doctoral courses within the doctoral education programme Textiles and Fashion.
