In addition to the research duties within the SPECTRA project, you will contribute in the SOFIA research group with:
• Active engagement in research, developing a distinct line of research through new independent research projects.
• Actively contributing to education on all levels.
• Supervising masters and doctoral students.
• Applying for suitable external research funding.
• Participating in joint departmental and university-wide undertakings.
• Participating in international collaborations on a high scientific level.
• Collaborating with research groups within and outside of MDH.
The position is meritorious for future employment. It shall include teaching at second cycle level both within your core competence and on a more general level, as well as administrative and management duties (up to 50%).
At the time the position starts the applicant is required to have a PhD degree in a relevant field such as Mechanical Engineering, Energy Engineering, or Control Engineering. You should be able to demonstrate research and pedagogical skills within the subject area. Further reference is made to the Higher Education Ordinance section 4 and Appointments Procedure for teachers at Mälardalen University.
We are looking for candidates who can contribute to the long-term development of the SOFIA research group, attract external funding and who are interested in research and education. You are open-minded and interested in collaborating across borders within and outside MDH. Interest in and experience from teaching and supervision as well as a post-doctoral or equivalent stay at an institution other than the one where the PhD was awarded are considered merits. Teamwork, leadership, organizational and entrepreneurial skills are advantages.
The position requires sound verbal and written communication skills in English. Knowledge of the Swedish language is desirable, but not a requirement. Undergraduate courses are normally taught in Swedish, but the graduate level teaching is in English. Applicants who do not have Swedish as native language are expected to develop their skills in Swedish during the time of the employment in order to be able to communicate effectively with the industrial project partners.
A substantial part of the research conducted at MDH is externally funded. Experience from coordinating applications for, and working in, externally funded projects is therefore of high merit. You should have a good amount of peer-reviewed articles within the stated areas published at leading conferences and highly-ranked international peer-reviewed journals.
MDH in Eskilstuna and Västerås is one of Sweden's biggest university colleges with its 15 000 students and 900 employees. Most study programmes fall into four main areas: economy, health and welfare, education, and technology. In 1999, MDH was the world's first university to be environmentally certified, and in 2006, it was the first higher education institution in Sweden to be certified for its work environment.
The announced position is a unique chance to join one of Sweden's most active research environments situated at the Future Energy Center of Excellence (FEC). The research within the FEC is led by its research director, Prof. Erik Dahlquist. The position belongs to the FEC research track "Smarter Modelling, Optimization and Management" led by Prof. Konstantinos Kyprianidis. The successful applicant will work under the SOFIA (Simulation and Optimization for Future Industrial Applications) research group.
