PhD recruitment is open at the School of Materials Science and Engineering, Hefei University of Technology (HFUT), for research in in-situ electron microscopy and lithium-ion batteries . The project sits at the intersection of materials chemistry , energy storage , and atomic-level investigation of electrochemical processes. The successful candidate will work on understanding fundamental mechanisms in lithium-ion batteries using advanced in-situ electron microscopy techniques. This is a strong fit for applicants interested in battery materials, electrochemical behavior, and microscopy-driven research in energy storage innovation. Eligibility highlights include a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Materials Chemistry or a closely related field, prior laboratory experimental experience, and a strong interest in materials science research. The poster also emphasizes strong work ethic, communication skills, and the ability to thrive in a rigorous collaborative lab environment. International students are welcome. Applicants must be eligible and willing to apply for the Chinese Government Scholarship (CSC) through the laboratory’s recommendation. The poster also states that a valid IELTS or TOEFL score is mandatory, indicating English proficiency expectations. How to apply: send your CV , academic transcripts , and a brief statement of research interests to the listed email address. A professor profile page is provided for more information about the supervisor and lab.
