4 weeks ago
The University of Cambridge Engineering Department is seeking a highly skilled and motivated postdoctoral researcher to join our team as an Ashby Postdoctoral Fellow in Mechanics and Materials. This prestigious fellowship is established in honour of the pioneering research by Prof M F Ashby CBE, FRS, FREng.
Research OpportunitiesThe Ashby Postdoctoral Fellow will have the opportunity to pursue independent research in the general area of mechanics and materials, as well as contribute to ongoing research in the Mechanics and/or Materials Groups. Research activities in mechanics and materials are broadly interpreted, and the candidate should be broadly aligned with interests in the groups.
Current Research AreasOur research groups are actively engaged in various areas, including additive manufacturing, micro- and nano-mechanics, coupled phenomena of direct relevance to mechanical engineering, such as performance and failure of electro-chemical devices, statistical theory of vibration, and data-based computational methods. While these areas are of particular interest, applicants are not limited to these example topics.
College AffiliationThe Ashby Postdoctoral Fellow will be affiliated with Pembroke College, with the opportunity to engage in College life and develop their teaching experience by joining the tutorials given to Engineering students in that College. This affiliation will carry benefits, including dining rights and the opportunity to interact with College Fellows across a wide range of disciplines.
RequirementsThe Ashby Postdoctoral Fellow position is primarily targeting candidates who are seeking an academic career in a leading, international research university. Candidates are expected to show outstanding promise in experimental and/or theoretical research. They must have received a PhD recently, with their exam after 1 October 2022, or be close to receiving one.
Appointment and SalaryAppointment at Research Associate level is dependent on having a PhD. Those who have submitted but not yet received their PhD will be appointed at Research Assistant level, which will be amended to Research Associate once the PhD has been awarded. Salary ranges are as follows: *Research Assistant: £31,396 - £33,966
*Research Associate: £36,024 - £44,263
To apply, please submit the following documents:
- Curriculum Vitae (maximum 2 pages)
- A covering letter (1 page)
- A brief statement of your proposed research (up to three pages)
