About this position

The George Washington University is seeking a Postdoctoral Fellow to join the NIST Professional Research Experience (PREP) program, specifically within the NIST Fire Research Division. This position offers the opportunity to work at the cutting edge of quantitative fire safety science, focusing on the development of experimental and analytical tools to predict material flammability from ignition to fire growth across multiple scales.

Key research areas include database development for material properties, multi-scale experimental testing (from mg-scale thermal decomposition to large-scale flame spread tests), and specialized studies on complex materials that deform, melt, flow, or char/smolder. The role also involves bridging the gap between bench-scale data and full-scale fire modeling, contributing to advancements in fire safety science.

Applicants should hold a Ph.D. in Fire Protection Engineering, Materials Science, Mechanical Engineering, Chemistry, or Physics, and have at least two years of relevant laboratory experience in experimental design. Proficiency in Python, MATLAB, or R for data analysis is required. U.S. citizenship is preferred but not mandatory.

This is an excellent opportunity for researchers dedicated to advancing fire safety through rigorous material science and experimental research. The position is based at George Washington University in collaboration with NIST, located in Washington, D.C., United States. For more information and to apply, visit the provided application link.
