About this position
De Montfort University Dubai is inviting applications for a Part-Time Research Assistant in Mechanical Engineering / Environmental Engineering for a funded international research project supported by the Dubai Future Foundation in collaboration with KAIST (Korea Advanced Institute of Science & Technology).
The project focuses on bio-inspired water desalination systems, with research activities spanning membrane distillation, experimental thermal-fluid systems, computational modelling, data analysis, and AI-assisted engineering approaches. The role is research-focused and has no teaching responsibilities.
Successful candidates will support experimental setup development, laboratory investigations, performance evaluation, simulation/modelling, technical reporting, and dissemination through journal papers and conference publications. The position is based at De Montfort University Dubai in the United Arab Emirates, and the work is primarily on-site.
Eligibility highlights: minimum BSc in Mechanical Engineering, Environmental Engineering, or a closely related discipline; Master’s degree preferred. Applicants should have a strong background in water desalination, preferably membrane distillation and multiphase flow, plus experience in experimental design, laboratory work, data analysis, and academic writing. Familiarity with MATLAB/Simulink, ANSYS, Abaqus, or CFD tools is desirable.
Funding and duration: this is a funded part-time role for approximately 11 months, with an estimated workload of 16–20 hours per week across 3–4 days. The post may be extended depending on performance and project progress. No stipend amount is specified.
