Postdoctoral Researchers in Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Energy Systems, and Advanced Materials at ACER CoE, UM6P Mohammed VI Polytechnic University in

Mohammed VI Polytechnic University (UM6P), through its Applied Chemistry and Engineering Research Center of Excellence (ACER CoE), is recruiting multiple postdoctoral researchers in interdisciplinary areas spanning chemistry, chemical engineering, energy systems, materials science, and plasma science.

The advertised opportunities cover several research directions: crystallography and crystal structure solving; adsorption and membrane-based separations; experimental multiphase flow reactors for CCUS (carbon capture, utilization and storage); non-thermal plasma-based hydrogen production; and optical/laser diagnostics for plasma propagation and plasma-surface interactions. The broader ACER CoE research environment also includes catalysis, separation technologies, energy generation and storage, polymers, optoelectronics, and sustainable process engineering.

Institution: Mohammed VI Polytechnic University, Benguerir, Morocco.

Research themes and keywords: crystallography, X-ray diffraction, adsorption, membranes, gas/liquid separation, CCUS, carbon-negative technologies, reactor design, plasma diagnostics, hydrogen production, optical emission spectroscopy, laser diagnostics, surface characterization, advanced materials, catalysis, process engineering.

Eligibility highlights: Candidates are expected to hold a PhD in a relevant discipline such as Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Materials Science, Plasma Science, Applied Physics, or related fields. Strong publication records, excellent English communication skills, and the ability to work independently and in multidisciplinary teams are emphasized. Depending on the role, experience with crystal structure solving, adsorption isotherms, membrane technologies, reactor design, spectroscopy, laser diagnostics, programming tools such as Python/MATLAB/LABVIEW, and materials characterization techniques such as XRD, SEM, FTIR, ICP-OES, XPS, BET, TEM, or TGA may be required or preferred.

Funding/employment: These are postdoctoral employment opportunities; the posts are described as full-time, with contract types varying by listing. No stipend amount is provided in the post.

Application window: The linked job listings show a closing date of 2026-06-17 for the advertised roles. Applicants should prepare a cover letter, detailed CV, publication list, and referee contacts, then apply via the relevant job portal links.
