Join a pioneering research team and seize the opportunity to advance our understanding of planetary materials, space-mission return sample characterization, and high-speed aerodynamics. As part of an international Collaborative PhD Program, you will contribute to future space research and exploration.
This program brings together experts from the European Geosciences Union and the University of Tokyo to offer four fully funded PhD positions. Our initiative aims to refine techniques for identifying exogenous materials, reconstructing planetary and solar-system histories, and supporting space-mission sample analysis.
We are seeking exceptional candidates with a strong background in planetary science, geophysics, or a related field. Your expertise will be invaluable in developing innovative solutions for analyzing extraterrestrial samples. Additionally, you will have the chance to collaborate with renowned researchers and gain hands-on experience in state-of-the-art facilities.
Apart from the scientific aspects, this role offers numerous benefits, including:
* Professional development opportunities through workshops, conferences, and training sessions
* Access to cutting-edge equipment and technologies
* Funding for travel, accommodation, and living expenses during your research stay
You will be based at the University of Tokyo, where you will work closely with our team to achieve outstanding results. If you are passionate about advancing our knowledge of the universe, we encourage you to apply for this exciting opportunity.
