[ETH Diversity] Professor of Battery Electrochemistry and Materials at ETH Zurich

[Haller Annina (Prs)]

Professor of Battery Electrochemistry and Materials

 

The Department of Chemistry and Applied Biosciences (www.chab.ethz.ch
<http://www.chab.ethz.ch> ) at ETH Zurich and the Energy and Environment
Research Division at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI), Villigen (www.psi.ch
<http://www.psi.ch> ) invite applications for a joint professorship in
Battery Electrochemistry and Materials.

 

The new professor will lead, in a joint appointment with ETH Zurich, a
Laboratory for Battery Electrochemistry at PSI, and will thus benefit from
the access to PSI’s unique large-scale experimental facilities and
analytical infrastructure (Swiss Light Source, Swiss Neutron Source and the
Swiss Free Electron Laser). An excellent international record of research
accomplishments in the following areas is anticipated (non-exhaustive list):
experimental and computational discovery, structural and morphological
engineering of novel battery materials (electrodes, electrolytes etc.),
diverse battery concepts (Na-ion batteries, all solid-state batteries,
multivalent intercalation etc.), in situ/operando analytics and
characterization of batteries. 

 

The successful candidate is expected to establish an innovative, world-class
research program at the forefront of materials chemistry and method
development. The scope of research activities shall span from the basic
materials exploration and single cells to battery-level testing and
prototyping. Experience, willingness and commitment to the technology
transfer and tight collaboration with industrial partners are paramount for
the mission of the Laboratory for Battery Electrochemistry. Strong and
proven leadership skills are crucial for the successful candidate,
demonstrated by a track-record for leading large groups and entities. The
newly appointed professor is expected to being able to focus both on leading
an organizational unit - the Laboratory for Battery Electrochemistry with
different independent groups - and developing a strong international
world-class research program in battery research. 

 

The new professor should hold a Ph.D. or similar degree in chemistry,
material sciences or in a related field. A strong motivation and
undisputable commitment to student education is a prerequisite.  In general,
at ETH Zurich undergraduate level courses are taught in German or English
and graduate level courses are taught in English.

 

ETH Zurich is an equal opportunity and family-friendly employer, values
diversity, and is responsive to the needs of dual-career couples.

Applications should include a curriculum vitae, a list of publications, a
statement of future research and teaching interests, a description of the
leadership philosophy, and a description of the three most important
achievements. The letter of application should be addressed to the President
of ETH Zurich, Prof. Dr. Joël Mesot. The closing date for applications is 24
May 2023.
