Postdoctoral position in theoretical/computational chemistry
Postdoctoral position is available immediately in the UOIT (University of Ontario Institute of Technology) Faculty of Science.
The NSERC-funded project involves computational investigation of the structure and
properties of core-shell species composed of metal cluster cages filled with molecules
(interacting either covalently or noncovalently). The work is aimed at cluster structure
and property modification and design, with potential applications including tunable
catalysis, molecular storage, reactions steered and promoted in confined environment.
The position is for one year with a possible extension for another year by mutual consent.
Potential candidates should have Ph.D in Chemistry, Physics, or related discipline, as well
as experience in atomic and molecular electronic structure, and in ab initio calculations
of polyatomics using modern quantum chemistry software. Previous experience in modelling
cluster systems is a plus, and programming skills are an advantage.
The UOIT is located in the city of Oshawa about 1 hour drive from Toronto (Ontario), and is
well serviced by public transit (bus and train).
Interested candidates should send (preferably by e-mail) their CV and Pulication list, and
addresses (including e-mail) of 2-3 persons willing to supply a recommendation letter,
and can direct enquiries for further information to:
