The School of Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering at the University of Oklahoma is offering a fully funded Ph.D. position in Dr. Yanqing Su’s research group, focusing on computational catalysis. The successful candidate will engage in projects involving Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations for surface adsorption and reaction mechanisms, as well as exploring quantum computing applications in catalysis and materials modeling. This opportunity is ideal for students interested in the intersection of computational chemistry, quantum computing, and high-performance computing. Applicants should have proven experience in DFT-based simulations and surface chemistry, a strong interest in quantum computing, and solid programming skills in Python, C++, or Fortran. Experience with high-performance computing and familiarity with version control tools such as GitHub are also required. The minimum GPA requirement is 3.0, and applicants must take the GRE test either prior to admission or within the first year of graduate study, though there is no minimum GRE score requirement. English proficiency requirements must be met. To apply, candidates should email Dr. Yanqing Su with the subject line 'Ph.D. Student Position Application – Computational Catalysis', including a CV, GPA, TOEFL score, GRE score, publications, contact info for three references, and an unofficial transcript. Dr. Su will contact suitable applicants within four weeks. For more details, refer to the AME School Ph.D. Requirements. The University of Oklahoma is a Carnegie-R1 institution located in Norman, Oklahoma, offering a vibrant campus life and strong research environment. Dr. Su holds a Ph.D. from Georgia Institute of Technology and is an Assistant Professor at OU. This position provides an excellent opportunity for students interested in computational catalysis, quantum computing, and materials modeling to join a dynamic research group and advance their academic career.
