PhD fellowships - Ecole Polytechnique Federal de Lausanne


Two computational/theoretical chemistry PhD positions are available in the Laboratory for 
Computational Molecular Design headed by Prof. Clemence Corminboeuf at the Swiss Federal 
Institute of Technology (EPFL, Lausanne). 

The PhD fellowships are available in the framework of the ERC-Starting Grant (project COMPOREL)awarded to C. Corminboeuf.

The objective of the COMPOREL project is to develop a computational screening approach for identifying promising molecular precursors to organic electronics.

The candidates should have a Master degree in Chemistry (Theoretical, Physical) or Physics and 
experience in computational/theoretical chemistry. Knowledge of Linux-/Unix-based computer 
systems and Fortran programming languages is desirable. 

The two fellowships are for 4 years. The annual salaries are roughly 50,000 CHF.
PhD positions at EPFL require acceptance in the doctoral program of Chemistry and 
Chemical Engineering. Interested candidates should fill an application at:

For detailed information on the projects, interested candidates are encouraged to 
contact Clemence Corminboeuf by email at clemence.corminboeuf@epfl.ch and include a CV,
a brief description of research interests.
