Job opportunities

We are still looking for 2 PhD students (PhD08 and PhD013).

PhD08 deals with “Discrete Element Method to support microstructure design of refractories”.
PhD13 deals with “Performance prediction and reusability/recyclability assessment of refractory materials using online sensoring, machine learning and digital decision-making tools”.
At the same time, we are also looking for our Project Manager (having already a PhD in Material Science).

The Laboratory of Ceramic Materials of the IMPE Institute of Materials and Process Engineering of the ZHAW Zürich University of Applied Sciences is looking for a motivated early career scientist to join our research projects!

Looking for a PhD candidate to work at the Chair of Structural and Functional Ceramics (ISFK) in Leoben, Austria

"Thermomechanical tests with high temperature instrumentation on ceramic matrix composites"

You recently got a Master in Material Science or Engineering and you are looking for a PhD Position for October 2022? CESAREF is searching for 15 of the brightest young minds to participate in multi-scale refractory materials research, with a circular economy approach!

Context

             
In the field of Power Electronics, the use of increasingly integrated systems as well as increasingly high operating temperatures and powers require a major change in the materials used and their shaping. 

Planned start of theses in October 2022

Position available from March 2022

This research internship position is part of the SiBio research project (2021-2025) funded by the French National Research Agency (ANR), which aims at developing biodegradable implants for bone regeneration by means of reactive microwave sintering.
