Computation study of homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis, using small
 molecules and nanoparticles
The computational laboratory at the Department of Chemical Science at 
Ariel University in Israel is seeking Ph.D. students and postdoctoral
candidates to conduct a computational research in the area of 
homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis, using small molecules and 
nanoparticles. The candidate will join a well-established enthusiastic 
group of scientists under the supervision of Prof. Haya Kornweitz and 
will join our effort to explore the properties of mainly transition metal 
catalysts and support materials for inorganic process. This research is
expected to lead to fundamental understanding of the reactions 
mechanism leading to practical and theoretical application. Ariel 
University offers a collaborative research environment and features 
state-of-the-art research facilities relevant to the proposed position.
A full competitive scholarship and subsidized accommodation are offered
to prospective candidates in this program.
 
Required Qualifications: A successful PhD degree (postdoctoral candidates)
or M.Sc. (Ph.D. students), in Chemistry or Chemical Physics, journal 
publications record. Preferred Qualifications: former studies and 
experience in computational chemistry, with experience in using G16 (g09)
and/or VASP and other relevant software.
