The multiscale, multiphysics modeling of electrochemical systems lab in Mechanical 
Engineering, University of Massachusetts, Lowell is searching for 1 enthusiastic 
Ph.D. candidates in the area of energy storage and conversion. The successful 
candidate will use mulitscale and multiphysics model and experiment coupling 
method to explore fundamental transport, kinetic mechanisms, electrochemical-
mechanical coupling of solid oxide electrolysis cells with synthetic or 
reconstructed microstructures. The specific application includes solid oxide 
electrolysis cells/fuel cells, mixed ionic and electronic conducting membrane 
reactors.
Skills/Qualifications:
•	Required: Hold an MS in Engineering.
•	Required: A prior background with any electrochemical systems, such as 
fuel cells, batteries.
•	Required: Proficient with Comsol/ANSYS, Matlab, CAD.
•	Desired: Experience with Dream3D, ISOMESH, imaging processing, cluster 
computing.
Candidates should have a M.S. in engineering-related field. This is a four-year 
position supported by full tuition coverage and a yearly stipend. Interested 
candidates should email a cover letter and CV to Xinfang_jin@uml.edu.
