About this position

?? Fully Funded PhD Opportunity – BITS–RMIT Ph.D. Program
?? Thermal Energy Storage | Sustainability | Nanotechnology
Are you ready to engineer the future of clean energy? We're looking for passionate researchers to join a fully funded PhD project titled: “Design, development, and performance optimization of thermal energy storage battery made from recycled graphite, and ZnO-loaded phase change materials.”
This cutting-edge project focuses on building a modular TES system using recycled graphite, zinc oxide, and phase-change materials—designed to operate across a wide temperature range (100–800 °C). It captures both sensible and latent heat, making it ideal for industrial waste heat recovery, renewable energy integration, and building climate control.

?? Program Highlights:
? Joint PhD degree from BITS Pilani & RMIT University
?Full tuition scholarship + stipend + health cover
? One-year research stay in Melbourne with return airfare
? Dual supervision & world-class infrastructure
? Structured 4-year pathway with global exposure

?? Deadline: 26th September 2025
?? Start Date: January 2026
