Sustainability principles can be implemented in materials by using renewable resources, optimizing the efficiency of material utilization, minimizing energy-intensive processes, and/or enabling recyclability or biodegradability. Fields of particular interest include adaptive materials and structures, integrated electrochemical systems for energy conversion and storage, sustainable high-performance materials, living materials, and sustainable hybrid materials to develop novel electronic and optical devices. A focus on technological aspects of material development and a desire to embrace translational research toward addressing societal challenges in, but not limited to, environmental protection, efficient use of resources, and energy will be a strong asset.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>The candidate must be an effective and enthusiastic teacher who will develop and teach courses in the Materials Science curriculum at the BSc and MSc levels.
