The Research Fellow will conduct research in electrochemical energy, potentially covering batteries, fuel cells, electrolysers, materials, and related energy-conversion technologies. Requirements typically include a PhD in chemical engineering, materials science, chemistry, physics, or a closely related discipline, together with relevant publications and laboratory experience. Practical skills in electrochemical testing, materials characterisation, data analysis, and scientific writing are highly desirable. The candidate is expected to work independently and collaboratively, design experiments, analyse and publish results, contribute to grant proposals, present findings, supervise junior researchers or students, and maintain high standards of laboratory safety and research integrity.
Nanyang Technological University (NTU Singapore) is a major public research university in Singapore, recognised internationally for engineering, science, technology, business, education, and interdisciplinary research. Its main campus is known for extensive research facilities, a diverse academic community, and close partnerships with government agencies and industry. NTU has strong capabilities in sustainability, renewable energy, advanced materials, artificial intelligence, biomedical science, and smart systems. Research Fellows generally work within schools, institutes, or externally funded research programmes, collaborating with academic supervisors and researchers from Singapore and overseas. The university offers a research-intensive environment with opportunities to publish, attend conferences, develop specialist expertise, and contribute to projects with real-world applications. Employment conditions, benefits, and salary depend on qualifications, experience, funding, and the specific appointment terms.
Singapore is a compact, safe, and highly connected island city with opportunities in universities, technology, engineering, finance, healthcare, manufacturing, and research. English is widely used, while Mandarin, Malay, and Tamil are also official languages. The culture is multicultural and generally professional, combining modern city life with strong local traditions and excellent food. Public transport is efficient, though accommodation can be expensive, especially near the city centre and university areas. NTU is in the west, with housing options in Jurong, Clementi, and nearby districts. Climate is hot and humid year-round, with frequent rain. Foreign researchers usually need an employment pass or related work pass arranged by the university; eligibility depends on salary and qualifications. Bring authenticated academic documents, budget for rental deposits, and research visa paperwork. Healthcare and services are reliable, but living costs should be carefully planned.
