The work also integrates computational modeling and machine learning, providing an i...

The Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) Postdoctoral Fellowship Programs provide recurring fellowship support for researchers at the postdoctoral stage. This opportunity is administered by NSERC in Canada and is open to applicants from around the world. The advert frames this as a fellowship or scholarship scheme rather than a project-specific post. It is therefore a funding opportunity for postdoctoral research in the natural sciences and engineering, with multip...

Western University is offering a fully funded master's research opportunity in experimental fluid mechanics and turbulence , beginning in May 2027. The project investigates the fundamental physics of turbulent shear flows, flow separation and reattachment, and bluff-body aerodynamics. The student will use experimental and analytical methods including particle image velocimetry (PIV) , force measurements, and spectral analysis to study complex flow behavior. This work is situated within the Depar...

Two PhD positions are available in the Laboratory for Electrochemical Energy Devices Research at the University of Calgary, within the Department of Chemical and Petroleum Engineering in Canada. The project focuses on developing advanced energy storage devices through experimental and numerical diagnostics. The research will address water electrolyzers and redox flow batteries , with emphasis on designing new materials and electrode architectures that can improve electrochemical energy technolog...

The Acceleration Consortium at the University of Toronto is recruiting a Research Associate for its SDL1 group focused on Inorganic Materials . The appointment sits within the Consortium’s broader mission to advance self-driving laboratories that combine artificial intelligence, robotics, materials science, and high-throughput chemistry to accelerate discovery and technology development. Working under the guidance of Staff Scientists and Senior Staff Scientists, the successful candidate will con...

This fully funded PhD opportunity is based in the Okanagan Computational Fluid Dynamics Laboratory within the School of Engineering at the University of British Columbia Okanagan in Canada. The project investigates the computational modelling of electrical-transformer thermal behaviour. The doctoral researcher will study overheating, cooling, thermal hotspots and waste-heat recovery, using computational fluid dynamics, mathematical modelling and numerical simulation to understand and improve tra...

McMaster University is recruiting fully funded Master’s and PhD students for positions beginning in Fall 2027. Successful candidates will join Professor Ryan Ahmed’s research group at the McMaster Automotive Resource Centre (MARC) in Hamilton, Canada. The group works at the intersection of artificial intelligence, mechatronics engineering, electrified vehicles, smart mobility, energy storage systems, electric and hybrid powertrains, and autonomous systems. Students will contribute to research ad...

The University of British Columbia is seeking a Research Associate to join the Tebbutt Research Laboratory in the UBC James Hogg Research Centre, within the Faculty of Medicine and Division of Respiratory Medicine. The successful researcher will work under the direction of Dr. Scott J. Tebbutt, Professor of Medicine at UBC and Principal Investigator at the Centre for Heart Lung Innovation at St. Paul’s Hospital. This multidisciplinary and international research programme focuses primarily on car...

McGill University is recruiting applicants for fully funded MSc, PhD, and postdoctoral positions in metal additive manufacturing through the Laboratory for Powder Processing and Additive Manufacturing of Advanced Materials (P²AM²) . The openings focus on metal 3D printing and the development of advanced materials for additive manufacturing. Research areas include laser powder bed fusion process optimization, alloy development, and relationships between powder-processing conditions and material p...
