The Research Fellow will conduct research in air transportation and transportation engineering, using statistics, data science, operations research, applied mathematics, or economics. Typical requirements include a PhD or equivalent research experience in a relevant discipline, strong quantitative and analytical skills, and proficiency in programming, statistical modelling, optimisation, or data analysis. Experience with transport systems, simulation, forecasting, machine learning, or operational datasets is advantageous. The successful candidate is expected to design and complete research projects, analyse complex datasets, publish findings in academic journals or conferences, contribute to grant proposals, and collaborate with university researchers and industry partners. Strong communication, independent problem-solving, project management, and teamwork skills will be important.
Nanyang Technological University (NTU Singapore) is a major research-intensive university located in Singapore. It is internationally recognised for engineering, technology, science, business, education, social sciences, and interdisciplinary research. NTU works closely with government agencies, companies, and international academic partners on projects involving sustainability, artificial intelligence, transportation, advanced manufacturing, materials, and urban development. The university has a large, diverse community of students, academics, researchers, and professional staff, supported by extensive laboratories, research centres, libraries, and campus facilities. Research Fellows typically join a specific school, laboratory, or externally funded project and work under the guidance of a principal investigator. NTU offers an internationally oriented environment with access to Singapore’s strong innovation ecosystem and its position as a regional hub for aviation, logistics, finance, and technology.
Singapore offers strong opportunities in research, engineering, aviation, logistics, technology, finance, healthcare, and education. Its culture is multicultural, efficient, and generally welcoming, with English widely used at work and in daily life. The lifestyle is safe and convenient, with excellent public transport, diverse food, modern facilities, and easy access to Southeast Asia. Housing can be expensive, especially near central areas, although public transport makes commuting practical. International researchers generally need an appropriate work pass, commonly an Employment Pass or another pass arranged by the university; eligibility depends on salary, qualifications, and current immigration rules. Before relocating, arrange health insurance, accommodation, banking, and document verification. Singapore is hot and humid year-round, with frequent rain. Annual leave, healthcare benefits, and relocation support vary by appointment terms, so candidates should confirm these details with NTU before accepting an offer.
