A number of projects aiming to develop and optimize novel materials,  electrochemical sensors, nondestructive methods and devices for diagnosis of reinforcement corrosion, 3D characterization of materials nano/microstructure are currently available in the laboratory. Postdoctoral researchers, research higher degree (PhD, MSc), honours and undergraduate students are welcome to join our group.

Masters, MSc

The student is required to have a good understanding of materials science, mathematical modelling and numerical methods.  He/She will need to demonstrate adaptability to the multidisciplinary nature of the projects. Students are encouraged to contact Prof. Robert Filipek to express his/her interest.

PHD

PhD opportunities with government and university-funded scholarships are available each year, both to domestic and international students. Students are encouraged to contact Prof. Robert Filipek to express his/her interest.

Key criteria

Domestic students –The students should have MSc and strong academic track record (including research and write-up) with first class honours. The student’s research and academic background might be in one or more of materials science, chemistry, nanotechnology, microfluidics, and related disciplines.

International students – For an international student, she/he is expected to have masters and honours degrees with very strong academic and research background in a relevant field.  She/he is also expected to have research articles in high impact journal of the field.
