Researcher in molecular-level modelling of polymer materials relevant to textiles
Full-time, temporary employment (1 year), start date as soon as possible.
Dnr PA 2014/191
The molecular modelling group (
www.adm.hb.se/~kib ) at the University of Borås is looking for candidates for a researcher position at the university.
Research in the molecular modelling group is, to a large extent, focused in th
e areas of resource recovery and materials relevant to textiles, such as polymers and polymer composites. The group is now searching for a candidate to fill a one-year research position within a project called Design, Textiles and Sustainable Development. The project, which is financed by Västra Götelandsregionen (VGR), combines textile design and engineering with IT to create new knowledge and innovations in smart textiles. Molecular-level modelling in this project will deepen our fundamental understanding of the material properties that are important for these textiles and their applications.
The successful candidate will perform molecular-level modelling of polymer or polymer composite materials that are relevant to textiles. The modelling can include methods such as molecular dynamics, Monte Carlo and/or first principles calculations of properties relevant to the project. These properties will be decided on in collaboration with the other researchers in the project, and may include barrier and mechanical properties. The successful candidate will work closely with the other researchers in the project and is expected to publish the research results in scientific journals and to write research applications to develop the research done in the area.
The successful candidate must have a PhD degree in chemistry, physics, material science or chemical engineering with a specialization in molecular level computational modelling, or similar expertise. The position also requires good collaborative skills, the ability to work independently and structured as well as the ability to focus on the most important duties. The position also requires that the successful candidate can communicate unhindered in English, both orally and in writing.
More information regarding the position can be obtained from Professor Kim Bolton, at
kim.bolton@hb.se or 076-835 79 83.
The application, which must be marked with reference number dnr PA 2014/191, must include a curriculum vitae, copies of the courses and grades obtained as part of the applicant's PhD, MSc and BSc studies (including proof of the applicant's PhD examination) and other information that the applicant thinks is relevant to the application.
The application, with names of references, requested salary and information of other work activities that he / she plans to do during his / her term of employment, must have arrived at the university no later than 2014-10-21. The address is:
