Opening Positions for Computational Materials Science at the University of Maryland-College Park

Postdoctoral Research Associate opening and Research Assistantship (RA) opening are available in Professor Yifei Mo’s group at the Department of Materials Science and Engineering, the University of Maryland, College Park (UMD).

Prof. Mo’s Group develops and employs computational modeling techniques such as ab initio quantum mechanical methods and large-scale atomistic modeling to understand, design, and discover advanced materials for the next-generation energy storage and conversion technologies. Our group collaborates closely with leading experimental research groups at the UMD. We highly value innovation and passion to bridge fundamental scientific inquiry and high-impact applications. More information about Prof. Mo can be found at https://yfmo.umd.edu

Postdoctoral Research Associate opening
Qualifications of the Postdoctoral Research Associate candidate include:
• Ph.D. in Materials Science, Physics, Chemistry or any related field is required.
• Knowledge of materials science and solid-state physics.
• Experience with molecular dynamics simulations and/or ab initio computational methods.
• Good scientific programming skills in Python, C/C++, Fortran, and the ability to translate physical models to efficient numerical algorithms.
We encourage the applicants with a range of computational modeling techniques and research interests to apply.
A cover letter, curriculum vitae, and a list of references should be sent to Prof. Yifei Mo at yfmo@umd.edu. A starting date of Early 2017 is preferred.

Research Assistantship (RA) opening
The candidate will be seeking a Ph.D. degree in Materials Science and Engineering. The research project will mainly focus on the ab initio quantum mechanical modeling and large-scale atomistic modeling of advanced materials for the next-generation energy storage and conversion technology. The ideal candidate will have basic programming skills and knowledge of materials science or solid-state physics, but highly motivated applicants with varied background will be considered.
Interested candidates may contact Prof. Yifei Mo directly at yfmo@umd.edu. Formal applications should be submitted online to the graduate school of UMD. Please submit the application for the Ph.D. program in Materials Science and Engineering. The application deadline is December 1st, 2016. More information about the application process can be found at https://mse.umd.edu/graduate/admissions

Opening for Visiting Professors and Students with CSC scholarship
Our group is also interested in hosting visiting scholars who are interested in contributing to cutting-edge computation research. The candidate should be self-sponsored with scholarship, such as CSC, and should plan for duration of at least one year. The ideal candidate will have basic programming skills and knowledge of materials science or solid-state physics, but highly motivated applicants with varied background will be considered. Interested candidates may contact Prof. Yifei Mo directly at yfmo@umd.edu.

About UMD. The University of Maryland, College Park, is located in the Washington, D.C. metro area. Its proximity to the nation's capital has resulted in strong research partnerships with federal government agencies and research laboratories, including the Department of Energy (DOE), the National Science Foundation (NSF), the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), the National Institutes of Health (NIH), Army Research Laboratory, and Naval Research Laboratory.
