Post Doctoral Researcher Postions
The ARC Training Centre for Green Chemistry in Manufacturing has three post-doctoral positions available, one at of Monash University focussed on products from renewable biomass; Deakin University focussed on bioprocessing and Flinders University focussed on advanced sustainable manufacturing. Whilst your research will be focussed on a key theme, you will have input into the other research themes in the Centre. The positions are supported by the Australian Research Council’s Industrial Transformation Training Centre program (IC190100034) with funding for 4 years.
Duties of the positions
