Netherlands : PhD Transient plasma for air purification

The Department of Electrical Engineering concerns the research and education of the Electrical Engineering discipline. Electrical Engineering covers the application of electrical phenomena with respect to energy transfer, telecommunication, and calculation and processing of information and the technology involved. Both hardware, in the form of electronic circuits and accessories, and software, in the form of system software for electro-technical application, are the subject of study. Existing and new electrical components and systems are analyzed, designed and realized. In addition, the maintenance of these systems is the subject of research, as is the relevance for society of electrical engineering and informatics.

The mission of the group EES is the support of the supply and efficient use of electrical energy through research projects enabling the understanding and development of the technology needed.
Driving forces behind research and the development of the technologies for energy supply and use are:
.The call for a sustainable society
.The liberalisation and resulting competition in the energy market
.The evolution in power electronics towards higher power ratings

The group EES contributes in the field of electric energy supply and use through three main research activities: EMC, Intelligent Networks and Pulsed Power. These research subjects are chosen on the basis of the current needs of society and industry, the competencies of our group built in history and the synergy with our colleagues in and outside TU/e.

Requirements

Candidates for this PhD position should meet the following requirements:

• MSc in Electrical Engineering/Physics with knowledge or minor/majors in subject related areas such as pulsed power technology, plasma physics or power engineering.
• Excellent analytical and communication skills, ability to cooperate easily in a team with students, researchers and companies and excellent English language capabilities.
• needs to be an experimentalist

Appointment and Salary

The appointment is for four years. As an employee of the university you will receive a competitive salary as well as excellent employment conditions (including excellent sport facilities and child care). The research in this project must be concluded with writing a PhD thesis. A salary is offered starting at EUR 2042 per month (gross) in the first year and increasing up to EUR 2612 per month (gross) in the last year. Moreover 8% bonus share (holiday supplement) is provided annually. Assistance for finding accommodation can be given. The university offers an attractive package of fringe benefits such as excellent technical infrastructure, child care, savings schemes, and excellent sports facilities.
TU/e offers you also the opportunity for personal development by developing your social and communication skills. We do this by offering every PhD student a series of courses that are part of the Proof program an excellent addition to your scientific education (Proof program).
