MAE Experience Engineering

Dear Colleagues,

One of our Australian partners has announced an ambitious plan for the creation of a new Engineering Research Centre.  The Centre will coordinate the efforts of several scientific groups working in the field of Chemical Engineering and the related disciplines of applied mathematics, fluid and particle dynamics, waste management, materials of construction, process safety, energy resources conversion and utilisation, high energetic materials, process economics, and others.

We would like to invite leading scientists with wide experience and proven capability to develop breakthrough technologies to participate in this new and exciting endeavour.  Postgraduate candidates are also welcome to apply.

The position of the Director of the Centre is vacant.  It is a 5 years fixed term position with an excellent remuneration package of up to 200,000 Australian dollars p.a.  Also, there are several vacant positions open for Research Fellows.  The salary levels are up to 142,000 Australian dollars p.a. plus generous superannuation benefits.  The positions will require relocation to Australia for the duration of the 5 years contracts.  The relocation costs will be covered by the employer.

The positions will only be offered to candidates with outstanding research records.  Preferences will be given to members of well-established scientific schools.  For expression of interest, please contact Dr V. Stamatov on v.stamatov@ausihem.org.
