The Center for Complex Flows and Soft Matter Research, a newly-established research center at the Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech) in Shenzhen, China, invites applications for tenured or tenure-track faculty positions at all ranks. We seek ambitious and creative candidates who have the vision and capability of carrying out cutting-edge research. Candidates (by the time of employment) should hold an earned doctoral degree in mechanical engineering, physics, or related subjects, and preferably should have postdoctoral experience. Research areas of the Center include, but not limited to: turbulence, multiphase flow, geophysical and astrophysical fluid dynamics, physical oceanography, bionics (insects and birds fly, etc.) and bio-related fluid mechanics, active matter, and soft matter. The successful candidates are expected to build a strong and independent research program, supervise graduate and undergraduate students, publish in archival journals, and teach both undergraduate and graduate courses. Senior candidates are expected to play leadership roles in research and education. Globally competitive salaries and highly attractive start-up packages will be provided. Additionally, the Center also invites applications for research assistant professors (non-tenure track) and postdoctoral fellows.
