Assistant Professor (UD) in Energy Technology

We would like you to have:

• an excellent research track record in (a few of) the relevant sub-disciplines in thermal engineering showing modelling and experimental skills,
• experience and dedication to instructing students at both undergraduate and graduate level,
• a strong and shown interest in the energy transition and renewable energy sources such as thermal solar,
• the ability to communicate effectively and inspire students and co-workers,
• the ambition to collaborate with other research groups participating within and outside the faculty,
• the aptitude and motivation to conduct exploratory, groundbreaking research, keeping a keen eye on practical (energy) applications, and applying for external funding.

You are a highly motivated and enthusiastic researcher with a PhD degree in mechanical engineering or comparable engineering backgrounds, with well-developed communication and project-management skills. A few years of (international) experience as postdoctoral researcher, and a significant publication record and teaching experience are a prerequisite. You can contribute to excellence in the field of thermal engineering, including experimental work as well as modelling.

Because women are still a minority in a number of fields, they are warmly invited to apply.
