Объявления о PhD, Postdoc, Schools, Confs etc. - Public forum of MSU united student networks

Меня попросили распространнить информацию о поиске студентов, аспирантов и постдоков в Сколковский институт науки и техники. Набор организуется молодым доцентом Степаном Рудых. Позиции открыты с осени 2013 года.

По тематике это подходит для студентов мехмата, отделения механики, но и другим факультетам может быть интересно. Стипендия и зарплата, насколько я понимаю, довольно высокие - уровня западных университетов. Интересно, что первый год обучения/работы будет проходить в MIT.

Multiple M.Sc. and Ph.D. positions in Mechanics of Advanced Materials

A limited number of M.Sc. and Ph.D. positions are available as early as Fall 2013.

M.Sc. and Ph.D. students will have the opportunity to conduct research side-by-side with their faculty advisor in residence at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (Cambridge, USA). All admitted M.Sc.and Ph.D. students at Skoltech will receive an internationally competitive package of financial support, including a stipend, tuition waiver, housing arrangements, and medical insurance.

Our desire is to hire candidates with a strong interest in mechanics of composites, active materials (such as electroactive polymers and magnetorheological elastomers), bioinspired materials, acoustic metamaterials, and materials for energy storage.

The research group uses a good mix of theory, numerical simulations and experiments. The ideal candidates will demonstrate at least one of the following:

solid knowledge in non-linear elasticity
experience in finite element simulations (especially, multiphysics simulations)
strong experimental background
Interested candidates should e-mail Dr. Stephan Rudykh (rudykh@mit.edu) a single pdf containing

1. Statement of Purpose
2. CV/Resume and contact information of at least 2 references
3. Copy of transcripts, in English (and original language)
