About this position

King Fahd University of Petroleum & Minerals (KFUPM) is advertising a Postdoctoral Research Opportunity through the IRC for Sustainable Energy Systems.

The position is aimed at researchers interested in power electronics, electric propulsion, electric vehicles, microgrids, energy management, predictive maintenance, and optimization of sustainable energy systems. The post specifically mentions research directions such as power-electronic converter design and development for electric propulsion systems in land, marine, and aerial applications; advanced control and modulation strategies; condition monitoring for EV drive systems; resilient microgrid architectures for data centers; and intelligent control for integrated sustainable energy systems.

This is a postdoctoral opening, not a PhD or master's call. The post does not provide a deadline, stipend amount, or detailed eligibility criteria beyond seeking passionate, driven researchers. It does, however, point to the KFUPM Postdoctoral Fellowship Program and includes a direct application link.

Interested candidates should review the fellowship program information and apply through the provided portal. The opportunity is physically located at KFUPM in Saudi Arabia.

Funding details

Postdoctoral Fellowship Program at KFUPM; the post advertises a postdoctoral research position/fellowship, but no stipend amount, tuition, or other financial details are stated in the post text.

What's required

Applicants should be passionate and driven researchers interested in collaborative postdoctoral research. The post highlights expertise or interest in power-electronic converter design and development, advanced control and modulation strategies, condition monitoring and predictive maintenance of EV drive systems, flexible microgrid architectures, and intelligent control, energy management, and optimization of integrated sustainable energy systems.
