Taiwan Scholarships: Postdoctoral Fellowships in Joint Project in Computation

[sparrow]

The theory group in RCAS is carrying on a joint project for the development of multi-scale simulation tools.

The goal is to integrate the electronic, transport, optical, mechanic properties into a software package suitable for the simulation at the level of devices (or a certain size of molecular structures).

The main duty of the job is to develop and integrate various codes in different areas of physics/engineering together for comprehensive modeling.

We are looking for two potential candidates in the following two categories, respectively:
1. Ab inito computations in schemes such as density-functional theory (DFT) or similar approaches.
2. Computational electromagnetism/elasticity/optics/fluid mechanics.

Qualification:
1. The potential candidates must have an extensive numerical coding experience in one of the areas mentioned above, and the knowledge of linux-based environment.
2. Candidates with experiences in parallel programming may be given priority.

Salary: In accordance to the salary scale of Academia Sinica, but negotiable

Duration: The appointments are for one year and renewable if there is good progress.

Contact:
The potential candidate shall e-mail his/her curriculum vitae and three representative publications to Dr. Shu-Wei Chang (e-mail: swchang@gate.sinica.edu.tw).

Please set the title of e-mail as "Application to Post Doc Position in RCAS-Joint Project in Computation."

Qualified candidates will be further contacted (by e-mail or phone) for an interview, and reference letters may be requested.

Deadline: 2011.03.15
