PhD position in Smart and Functional Materials at Mahindra University, India

Submitted by Harshavardhan … on

 

 

We are looking for an enthusiastic student who is interested in working in the field of smart and functional materials, in the department of mechanical engineering at Mahindra University in Hyderabad, India. The selected candidate will have the opportunity to conduct a bottom-up research towards developing a novel “active” composite. The research lifecycle encompasses modelling & simulation, design optimization, experimentation & validation of the composite.

Open position for a Science/Engineering Analyst (FedTemp or VSEE) with the National Science Foundation’s Division of Civil, Mechanical and Manufacturing Innovation (CMMI)

Submitted by Siddiq Qidwai on

The Engineering/Science Analyst will provide analytic support for activities and programs within the CMMI Division and will be part of the CMMI Analysts Team. The position will encompass a wide spectrum of duties in support of the Division's mission, including the analysis of scientific and technical issues to provide recommendations influencing policy and process administration. This is a great opportunity for recent Ph.D. graduates from CMMI disciplines to get a unique view of the Nation’s primary engineering research funding agency.
