Job announcements relevant to people interested in electronic structure calculations…
Due to the large number of posts recently, there is currently a delay of several weeks between posts being submitted and the corresponding emails being distributed to all users. Please bear with us while we try to improve this. In the meantime – and until this notice is removed – it would assist us considerably if you could submit only important and/or urgent posts and thus help to reduce the size of the mail queue. Under no circumstances should you resend posts multiple times when you find the emails are not distributed immediately.
In light of the Russian military offensive in Ukraine, we request that announcements relating to events, jobs and other activities associated with institutions supported by the Russian and Belarusian states are not posted to the Psi-k forum.

A PhD position is available in the Modelling and simulation group in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of British Columbia (UBC), Vancouver, Canada. The position is related to the computational design of lightweight alloys based on high-entropy alloys and metallic materials with nano-architected structure (see sample here). The ideal candidate should have a master degree or bachelors in the area of mechanical engineering. Knowledge of modelling and simulations tools such as Density Functional Theory, Molecular Dynamics, Finite Element and continuum models is desired. Programing data analytics skills are an asset.
Interested candidates should send an email to Professor Mauricio Ponga at [email protected] with their transcripts, a short CV, and sample of relevant work done (e.g., link to publications, avoid sending thesis or papers files). Please indicate psi-k in the email subject. Only short-listed candidates will be contacted by email. In order to ensure no bias in the selection, please do not indicate any gender information. Diversity and visible minority candidates are specially encouraged to apply.
