The Research Fellow will conduct independent and collaborative research in organic electrochemistry, likely involving reaction design, electrochemical synthesis, catalysis, organic chemistry, analytical characterization and scientific data interpretation. Candidates are generally expected to hold a PhD in chemistry, chemical engineering or a closely related discipline, with demonstrated research experience in organic synthesis, electrochemical methods or both. Practical skills in laboratory safety, spectroscopy and relevant analytical instruments are important. The successful candidate should be able to design experiments, publish in international journals, present findings, contribute to grant-funded projects and work effectively with researchers and students. Strong communication, critical thinking, scientific writing and project-management skills will be expected.
The National University of Singapore (NUS) is Singapore’s leading comprehensive university and one of Asia’s most internationally recognised institutions. It offers undergraduate and postgraduate education across disciplines including science, engineering, medicine, business, computing, law and the humanities. NUS is strongly research-oriented, with extensive activity in areas such as sustainability, advanced materials, biomedical science, energy, artificial intelligence and chemical innovation. The university works with government agencies, industry partners and international institutions and supports a diverse community of faculty, researchers, professional staff and students. Its campuses provide modern laboratories, research infrastructure, libraries, teaching facilities and extensive student services. Research Fellows at NUS typically join a principal investigator’s laboratory or research centre, contributing to funded projects while developing publications, collaborations and specialist expertise.
Singapore is a compact, safe and highly connected island city-state with opportunities in universities, research institutes, biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, engineering, finance, technology and advanced manufacturing. English is widely used at work, while the culture blends Chinese, Malay, Indian and international influences. Residents enjoy efficient public transport, excellent healthcare, diverse food, shopping, parks and warm tropical weather, although housing and daily expenses can be high. Foreign researchers normally need an appropriate work pass, commonly arranged by the employing institution; eligibility and salary requirements depend on the role and current government rules. Before relocating, arrange housing, health coverage, banking, tax registration and document checks. Central areas are convenient but expensive, while neighbourhoods farther from the city centre may offer better value. Singapore’s airport, public transport and regional connections also make travel across Southeast Asia convenient.
