Wednesday, 27 March, 2019

UCD School of Chemical and BioProcess Engineering invites applications under the UCD Ad Astra Fellow programme. The successful candidates will join a vibrant teaching-, research- and innovation-intensive School. It is expected that the successful candidates will establish a productive, extramurally funded research programme, supervise postgraduate research students and initiate collaborations with colleagues in the School and beyond. Furthermore,  the successful candidate will deliver lectures and practical courses

Chemical and Bioprocess Engineering investigators are highly successful in attracting research funding from a wide range of national and international funding agencies, as well as from industry. These include the European Union, Science Foundation Ireland and Enterprise Ireland. 

The School champions innovation and commercialisation of research, which in recent years have led to the establishment of successful spin-out companies as well as numerous invention disclosures, patent applications, granted patents and license agreements..

We particularly encourage applications in the areas of:

  • Bioprocessing
  • Pharmaceutical Engineering
  • Energy Conversion and Storage Technologies
  • Process Engineering
