The Research Fellow will conduct postdoctoral research in photocatalysis, developing and testing photocatalytic materials and processes for applications such as sustainable chemical production, environmental treatment, or renewable energy. Requirements typically include a PhD in chemistry, chemical engineering, materials science, or a closely related discipline; practical experience with photocatalysis, catalyst synthesis, materials characterization, and relevant analytical techniques; and the ability to interpret research data. Candidates should demonstrate strong publication potential, scientific writing and presentation skills, independence, teamwork, and the ability to manage experiments safely and meet project deadlines. Experience with spectroscopy, chromatography, reactor design, or advanced characterization methods would be advantageous.
Nanyang Technological University (NTU Singapore) is a major research-intensive university located in Singapore. It is widely recognised for strengths in engineering, science, technology, sustainability, business, and interdisciplinary research. NTU hosts researchers and students from around the world and maintains extensive collaborations with government agencies, industry partners, and international universities. Its research environment includes advanced laboratories, specialised institutes, and large-scale programmes addressing areas such as clean energy, advanced materials, artificial intelligence, healthcare, and climate sustainability. A Research Fellow appointment is generally a fixed-term academic research position, offering the opportunity to work with senior investigators, publish scholarly findings, contribute to grant-funded projects, and support the development of new technologies. The university provides a multicultural, highly connected campus environment with access to Singapore’s broader research and innovation ecosystem.
Singapore offers strong opportunities in higher education, research, biotechnology, chemicals, semiconductors, engineering, finance, healthcare, and technology. Workplace culture is professional, multicultural, and generally structured, with English widely used. The lifestyle is safe, efficient, and convenient, supported by excellent public transport, modern healthcare, diverse food, shopping, parks, and vibrant arts and nightlife. Housing ranges from university accommodation and shared apartments to private condominiums, although rental costs can be high. Foreign researchers normally need an appropriate work pass, commonly an Employment Pass or another pass arranged by the employing institution; requirements depend on salary, qualifications, and current government rules. Relocating employees should budget for rent, deposits, insurance, transport, and initial settling-in costs. Singapore’s tropical climate is hot and humid year-round, with frequent rain. NTU is in the west of the island, with campus transport and public connections available.
