Description

A PhD Fellowship in Chemistry is available in the group of Dr. Haritz Sardon at the Basque Center
for Macromolecular Design and Engineering, POLYMAT Fundazioa
(http://www.polymat.eu/en/groups/Catalysis-and-Sustainable-Polymers) in collaboration with
Prof. Steven De Meester from the Laboratory for Circular Process Engineering at Ghent University
(www.lcpe.ugent.be).
Applicants must have a BSc and MSc in a discipline with important focus on chemical- or processengineering
or bio-engineering. Knowledge of ASPEN and/or being able to operate separation
processes will be a plus. Social skills are equally important, as this position will require mobility
between both participating institutions.
Good command of written and spoken English is a must (if preselected, a telephone interview will
be carried out before any other appointment is made). The selected candidate is expected to
conduct research, write papers, and deliver a PhD thesis.
Applications should be addressed to Dr. Haritz Sardon and sent via email in one single PDF to
edurne.gaston@ehu.eus before the 30th of April of 2021 (applications will be considered upon
arrival) including:
(i) a cover letter highlighting their interest in the position.
(ii) curriculum vitae.
(iii) a short description of previous research (1-2 Pages).
(iv) the names and contact addresses (e-mail) of two academic referees.
Please note that because of the large number of applications expected, we will not be able to give
individual feedback to unsuccessful applications.
POLYMAT has obtained the ‘HR Excellence in Research award‘. The award reflects our
commitment to continuously improve our human resource policies in line with the European
Charter for Researchers, the Code of Conduct for the Recruitment of Researchers and our
commitment to achieve fair and transparent recruitment and appraisal procedures.
