LAB OPENING
- Undergraduate Research Opportunities: We are looking for highly motivated undergraduate students to join our lab. Being an interdisciplinary group, we have projects for students with different background and interests. Undergraduate students are also encouraged to publish their research results. Computational programming skill and English would be a strong plus.
- Graduate students with a background in mathematics, mechanical engineering (especially heat transfer), materials science, electrical engineering, physics, chemistry or related fields are welcome to get in touch. Prior experience in the related areas is NOT a must. Computational programming skills would be a strong plus.
- Postdoc: We currently do not have postdoc openings. Interested postdoc candidates can get in touch, and we will contact you once new positions are available.
- Visiting scholars are welcome to contact Dr. Zhenzhen Qin to discuss projects of mutual interest.
