Postdoctoral Research Fellow/Assistant researcher positions at College of Instrumentation and Electrical Engineering in Jilin University

The geophysical computational imaging and instrumentation group is looking for enthusiastic Post-Doctoral Research Fellows/Assistant researchers to join our group.

There are a number of vacancies within seismic methods, underwater acoustic and electromagnetics including general inverse scattering theory, inverse theory, uncertainty quantifycation, seismic Imaging and inversion, Full Waveform Inversion, Wave modeling, seismic anisotropy, Time Lapse seismic, seismic instrumentation, seismic acquisition modeling, EM Methods. The positions are for a period from 3 years to 5 years and and further promotions for associate professor are made according to external research funding and publications that the candidate achieved.

The group is a part of the National Geophysical Exploration Equipment Engineering Research Center and Key Lab of Geo-Exploration Instrumentation at College of Instrumentation and Electrical Engineering in Jilin University. The university is located in Changchun, China.

The successful candidate will be expected to:

• Develop new methods within the topics within seismic methods, underwater acoustic and electromagnetics;
• Publish the results of the research;
• Initiate and develop targeted research collaborations;
• Engage in the supervision of PhD and MSc students;

Qualifications and personal qualities:

• A PhD in geophysics or Instrumentation Science and Technology, or closely related discipline (Mathematics, Computer Science, Physics, Geology).
• Area of research: seismic methods, underwater acoustic and electromagnetics including general inverse scattering theory, inverse theory, uncertainty quantifycation, seismic Imaging and inversion, Full Waveform Inversion, acoustic/poroelastic wave modeling, seismic anisotropy, Time Lapse seismic, seismic instrumentation, seismic acquisition modeling, EM Methods.

It should be emphasized that the candidate can come from any fields that are related to the topics in the above.

Criteria

• Excellent academic writing skills;
• Good publication track record;
• Research-active with a strong drive for conducting and publishing research development.

The positions of postdoctoral research fellow are a primary fixed-term period of 2 years. Individuals may be hired for more than one fixed-term period as a postdoctoral research fellow or promoted as associate professor at the same institution.

We can offer:

• Exciting development opportunities as part of your role in a strong professional environment
• Salary at pay grade upon appointment from RMB 300,000, to RMB 400,000 per year (equivalent to from 46,600 to 62,200 USD per year).
