PhD position in Experimental Solid Mechanics at the New Jersey Institute of Technology

There is an opening for a
PhD student position in Dr. Nadimpalli’s group at the New Jersey Institute of
Technology starting from Fall2014. Candidate with good academic credentials and an interest to work in experimental research projects are encouraged to apply.
Ideal candidate should have a master’s degree in mechanical/materials
science/aerospace or related field with a good background in Solid Mechanics,
Materials Science, and Experimental Methods (including but not limited to SEM,
TEM, and nanofabrication methods).

The research work involves characterizing mechanical and electrochemical
behavior of energy storage materials, mainly lithium-ion battery materials, by developing
nano/micro or continuum scale experimental techniques. Interested candidates should
contact Dr. Nadimpalli (nadimpal@njit.edu) with a detailed CV.
