This opportunity is open to all candidates, including international scholars, who have received their PhD within the last 7 years. The research focus areas include Big Data Analytics, Artificial Intelligence, and Earth System Governance, with strong institutional links to Universiti Teknologi MARA and Universiti Sains Malaysia.

The appointment duration is one year, subject to financial allocation. The position is performance-based, with honorarium/publication incentives provided for each accepted journal article: RM 5,000 for articles indexed in WoS Q1/Q2 and RM 2,000 for articles indexed in SCOPUS/WOS. There is no mention of a base salary or stipend, making this a publication-incentive-driven role.

The postdoctoral researcher must be the first author or corresponding author, and the supervisor must be the main author from UTeM. International collaboration and affiliation are encouraged.
