The Environmental Geotechnology Laboratory in the Department of Civil Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay is inviting applications for a Postdoctoral Fellow position. This opportunity is ideal for candidates who have recently completed or are nearing completion of their Ph.D. in Civil Engineering, Geotechnical Engineering, Environmental Engineering, or closely related fields. The research focus is on environmental geotechnics, with an emphasis on advanced experimental methods and laboratory testing techniques.

Applicants should demonstrate expertise in environmental geotechnics and laboratory-based research. Experience in marine pollution studies, water quality analysis, sediment characterization, and the investigation of emerging contaminants such as microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) is highly desirable. Additional experience in offshore geotechnics will be considered an asset.

The position is supervised by Prof. D. N. Singh at IIT Bombay, a leading institution in India. The laboratory is engaged in cutting-edge research on environmental challenges related to geotechnical engineering, including the study of pollution, water quality, and the impact of new contaminants in marine and terrestrial environments.

Interested candidates are encouraged to send their detailed curriculum vitae directly to Prof. D. N. Singh at [email protected]. The announcement does not specify a deadline or funding details, so applicants are advised to apply promptly and inquire about financial support and other terms during the application process.

Key research areas include environmental geotechnology, marine pollution, water quality analysis, sediment characterization, microplastics, nanoplastics, and offshore geotechnics. This position offers an excellent opportunity to contribute to impactful research in a dynamic academic environment at IIT Bombay.
