The Department of Civil Engineering of the University of Minnesota (USA) and the Solid Mechanics Laboratory of the Ecole Polytechnique (France) have established a joint PhD program in Civil Engineering.

Please, see the document attached for a detailed description of the program, host institutions and participating faculties.

The University of Michigan and Shanghai Jiao Tong University have established a Joint Institute in Shanghai committed to building a world-class academic institution with educational and research missions. The UM-SJTU Joint Institute invites applications for lecturers to support its mechanical and electrical/computer engineering programs. With its unique academic mission in China, the JI offers an extraordinary academic environment. The JI is modeled on world-class US universities. The students are among China’s best.

The University of Michigan and Shanghai Jiao Tong University have established a Joint Institute in Shanghai with a commitment to build a world-class academic research and educational institution. The UM-SJTU Joint Institute invites applications for tenure-track (Assistant, Associate, and Full Professor) positions in all emerging fields of mechanical engineering and related disciplines. These positions are open to top caliber applicants from around the world.

A number of 3 year research schoolarships and PhD positions in the areas of mechanical engineering, process engineering and applied mathematics is available in the Post-Graduate School "Micro-Macro-Interactions in Structured Media and Particle Systems", Otto-von-Guericke-University Magdeburg, Germany.

Applications are invited for one or more postdoctoral positions at the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Harvard University. The projects will be related to elastomer materials with relevance to their optical properties and device applications. Prior hands‐on experience in one or more areas such as polymer materials synthesis, optical measurements, polymer processing is required. The project will have a strong experimental focus and will encompass elastomer processing, physical characterization, mechanics as well as fabrication of devices based on actuation with elastomers.

A post-doc position is currently available at the Research centerfor Aircraft Parts Technology in Gyeongsang National University (Jinju, SouthKorea).

The research project will be based in the Research centerfor Aircraft Parts Technology in Gyeongsang National University. The researchwill be supervised by a principal investigator of the project (Prof. Jin-HweKweon).
