Job Description

PhD Scholarship in Advanced Protective Coatings for Thermal Energy Management Devices This ARC Linkage industrial-based PhD project is defined in partnership between RMIT University and Conflux Technology and aims to address the common issues of 3D-printed thermal energy management devices (TEMDs) in a corrosive medium. To achieve this purpose, an innovative plasma electrolytic coating technology will be combined with advanced nanomaterial synthesis and deposition to fabricate robust coating layers for TEMDs. It is expected that the outcome of this project will significantly enhance the corrosion resistance, mechanical properties, and thermal conductivity of the part. Such coatings will provide considerable benefits, including reducing system lifecycle waste and manufacturing costs. We are seeking a motivated and enthusiastic candidate as a full-time PhD scholar. The successful candidate will be based at RMIT University's Melbourne City campus, but frequent travel is required between various campuses and industry sites across Victoria. Minimum Requirements Applicants must meet RMIT University's minimum requirements for admission to a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) program and should hold an Honours degree (First Class) or an equivalent standard Master's degree with a substantial research component. The successful applicant will have an undergraduate or postgraduate degree in Materials Science, Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or related areas. Domestic candidates (Australian PR/citizen or New Zealand citizen) are highly preferred to start the project activity sooner, but talented international applicants can be considered as well. Applicants must demonstrate strong research and analytical skills. Some prior experience with material synthesis and characterisation is desirable. How to Apply Please contact Dr. Milad Laghaei ( ) or Prof. Weiwei Lei ( ) to discuss your suitability and the project requirements. Include your CV and enter the title of the project in the subject line by 1 May 2025 or earlier.
