COLCOM - Postdoc Position development of electrodes materials

Overview

Positions: two postdoc positions in the development of electrode materials for ultrahigh performance of metal-ion batteries via advanced multi-scale computational modeling

Located at the heart of the future Green City of Benguerir, Mohammed VI Polytechnic University (UM6P), a higher education institution with an international standard, is established to serve Morocco and the African continent. Its vision is honed around research and innovation at the service of education and development. This unique nascent university, with its state-of-the-art campus and infrastructure, has woven a sound academic and research network, and its recruitment process is seeking high-quality academics and professionals to boost its quality-oriented research environment in the metropolitan area of Marrakech.

The College of Computing is a central component of the University Mohammed VI Polytechnic (UM6P) with campuses in Benguerir and Rabat.

The goal of CC department is to set up an unprecedented research-education program, of international level, to address the UM6P challenges in terms of research and education, covering all aspects of computer science, including artificial intelligence, machine learning, data sciences, algorithms, databases, cloud computing, software engineering, networking, operating systems , security and computational materials science.

CC-UM6P is currently accepting applications for two postdoc positions in the development of electrode materials for ultrahigh performance of metal-ion batteries via advanced multi-scale computational modeling. The focus will be on integrating advanced multi-scale computational modeling in material science and experimental techniques to innovate and enhance electrode materials for lithium and sodium-ion batteries.

• A Ph.D. in physics, computational materials science, or a related discipline completed within the last 5 years.
• Strong background in multiscale simulations (ab initio calculations, molecular dynamics, computational modeling) and materials science.
• Excellent skills and understanding in physical-chemistry of materials.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
• Ability to work independently and as part of a multidisciplinary and multicultural team, to set priorities to accomplish multiple tasks within deadlines, and adapt to ever changing needs.

The application must include the following:

• A cover letter outlining the candidate's motivation for this job profile.
• Detailed curriculum vitae.
• Brief research statement.
• Two letters of reference with contact information of referees.

Deadline:
The selection process ends once the candidates are selected.

As soon as possible.
