Marco Sebastiani

A fully funded PhD position is open at the Materials Science and Technology Group , Roma Tre University in Italy. The project focuses on materials science , nano/micro-mechanical characterization , 3D microfabrication , and advanced materials engineering , with particular emphasis on two-photon lithography , nanoindentation , ceramic architectures , additive manufacturing, and surface/coating-related materials research. The research environment is described as international and highly experimental, with access to state-of-the-art facilities and the opportunity to build a strong profile in advanced characterization and fabrication methods. The project is suitable for candidates interested in the intersection of materials processing, mechanical testing, microstructure-property relationships, and innovative fabrication of functional materials. Eligibility highlights: applicants should have a background in materials science , engineering , physics , or related fields. A master's degree in Materials Science, Engineering, Civil Engineering, or a closely related discipline is preferred. The announcement also looks for strong motivation for experimental research, familiarity with materials processing and characterization, and good English communication skills. Experience with SEM, FIB, TEM, AFM, optical profilometry, microscopy, additive manufacturing, or nanoindentation is considered an advantage. Funding: the position is a fully funded 3-year PhD scholarship . The post does not mention tuition or stipend details, but it clearly states that scholarship support is provided. How to apply: interested applicants should contact Prof. Marco Sebastiani with a CV including academic transcripts, a brief motivation letter, and contact information for at least two academic referees. The announcement includes the professor’s email address and a university profile page.
