Assistant Professor in Chemical Engineering with specialization in electrolysers and fuel cells
1 week ago
Chemical Engineering with specialization in electrolysers and fuel cells.
The subject area rests on a foundation of chemical and electrochemical reaction engineering. It includes charge transfer and mass transport, the use of balance equations for charge, mass and energy to describe electrochemical processes on surfaces, in porous electrodes and whole cells. Both experimental electrochemical measurement methodology and theoretical modelling are included. Electrochemical reactions and transport processes in electrolysers and fuel cells are of central importance for the subject field. Minimising losses and increasing system performance and lifespan with sustainable materials and components, as well as with efficient operation, are important goals.
DutiesThe position includes research and teaching in the subject field. It includes supervision at first level, advanced level and postgraduate level. The assistant professor is also expected to participate in courses outside their own subject field, for example in the various chemistry-oriented education programmes given by the School of Chemistry, Biotechnology and Health. Teaching at first level takes place in Swedish, while higher courses are given in English. The applicant is expected to be able to teach in both English and Swedish at the latest upon promotion to associate professor. If necessary, a language plan is established as support in connection with employment.
The assistant professor will be given opportunity to develop their independence as researcher and gain accreditation that may allow them to take other teaching positions with higher eligibility requirements (see Chapter 4, Section 12 a of the Swedish Higher Education Ordinance). Following application, the assistant professor can apply for promotion to associate professor in accordance with Chapter 4, Section 12c of the Higher Education Ordinance.
