Ultrasonics Laboratory in the Material Science & Engineering
department is looking for a PhD student in the areas of ultrasonic characterization
of polycrystalline materials, composites and bonded structures. The position is
supported by research grants and is intended for several years. Strong
background in experimental and modeling aspects acoustics/ultrasonics
and signal processing is preferable. An MS degree in

A postdoctoral associate position is available at Rice University in the

area of atomistic and molecular modeling of nanoscale friction and defects in an assembly of

nanoparticles. Computational techniques will be integrated to approaches from statistical

mechanics and physical chemistry to provide quantitative predictions of properties of complex

oxide materials across different time- and length-scales. The research will be carried out at Rice

University's Multiscale Materials Modeling Lab.
