PhD position in Computational Electrocatalysis – DTU Physics
Danmarks Tekniske Universitet
We are seeking an outstanding PhD candidate in the field of computational electrocatalysis. The PhD project aims to use state-of-the-art quantum simulation techniques, Density-Functional-Theory (DFT), Ab Initio Molecular Dynamics (AIMD), and Machine Learning (ML) tools to develop theoretical electrocatalytic frameworks. Hereby, the project will challenge existing research on catalysis, move the boundary of fundamental catalysis, and approach the next generation of selective renewable reactions.You will join the newly established led by Ass. Prof Alexander Bagger at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) located at the outskirts of Copenhagen. The Computational Catalysis group has a long-term goal to develop predictive models and schemes of new reactions and materials in close connection with experiments. Typical work is highly collaborative, internally within experimental groups at DTU and externally with other leading universities. The group is part of the Catalysis Theory Center (CatTheory) which spans two departments at DTU, the Department of Physics, and the Department of Energy Conversion and Storage. CatTheory provides a strong infrastructure and computational facility.Responsibilities and qualifications
The successful candidate must have a MSc in physics, chemistry, chemical engineering, materials science or related areas as well as experience in the general area of catalysis for sustainable energy solutions. The candidate must display good communication skills in English, both written and spoken, be innovative and able to work both independently and in cross-disciplinary teams, as well as with international academic collaborators and industrial partners.Successful candidates must document:
You must have a two-year master’s degree (120 ECTS points) or a similar degree with an academic level equivalent to a two-year master’s degree.You will be assessed against the responsibilities and qualifications stated above and the following general criteria:
