PhD in Process Engineering

The upcoming Molecular Engineering Thermodynamics (MET) Group at ETH Zürich is looking for a doctoral student to develop and improve computational tools for the molecular scale description of interfaces with an application to nucleation phenomena./nThe MET group at ETH Zurich, led by Philipp Rehner, is dedicated to linking rigorous physical molecular models to the design of sustainable processes in chemical engineering. To bridge the scale from molecules to processes, we apply state-of-the art mathematical concepts and tools combined with highly efficient computational methods. A particular focus is on the modeling of interfacial phenomena in process design applications. Our technological focus is on emerging technologies for the energy transition./nWe offer a full-time position for the duration of your doctoral studies, starting upon agreement with the earliest starting of 1st of April, 2026. Location: Zurich, Switzerland.
