The University of Stuttgart is one of the leading technically oriented universities in Germany in one of Europe’s most vibrant high-tech and industrial areas. The university is a reliable employer, partner for technology transfer and is committed to the interdisciplinary integration of engineering, natural sciences, humanities, and social sciences based on the fundamentals of cutting-edge research at a disciplinary level.
The call for applications is aimed at outstanding young scientists in the early career phase who have an excellent record of high-ranking scientific publications with international visibility and who have in-depth knowledge of at least one of the following key topics:
• Heat transfer intensification
• Droplet dynamic processes and sprays
• Heat and mass transfer in compressible flows
• Heat transfer in complex structures and/or in high-temperature or cryogenic applications
Experimental investigations using complementary, innovative methods in the above-mentioned areas of aerospace engineering are to be combined with the development of models to describe the processes involved, and can be flanked by numerical investigations. The aim is to create a link between basic experiments and application-relevant investigations. Data analyses are to be supported by modern methods, such as machine learning processes.
Didactic skills, skills for interdisciplinary collaboration in research projects and the willingness to acquire funding as well as active participation in academic self-administration are also expected. In teaching, courses on thermodynamics are to be held for engineers in the Bachelor's and Master's degree programs in aerospace engineering.
For a qualitative assessment of your academic accomplishments, we kindly ask you to submit a short description of your three most important scientific achievements, which should be no longer than one page. Possible successes may include, for example, those in the fields of research, teaching, science and society, knowledge and technology transfer, inventions and patents, software development or spin-offs.
