The Department of Civil, Environmental and Natural Resource Engineering (CENE) is recruiting a Professor and Head of Subject to continue leading, strengthening, and advancing research in Process Metallurgy. The research is especially, but not exclusively, focused on the early steps in the processing of ore to metal. Present activities in the research subject are focused on the green transition and how it is related to the mineral and metal value chain, research institutes and industrial partners. The research projects in this area have a strong profile in experimental studies using our own advanced lab scale equipment and cutting-edge analytical equipment for element and mineral characterization, thermodynamic modeling as well as field studies all in collaboration with internal and external partners worldwide.
Duties
The position as professor/head of subject also includes an overall responsibility to lead and develop the subject, which comprises research and first-, second- and third-cycle education.

An important task is to continue strengthening and develop the research subject where doctoral students, staff and students can progress. The position as professor/head of subject is a permanent position.
