Cococcioni’s group in the department of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science of the University of Minnesota. The work will mostly consist in the development of computational approaches based on (but not restricted to) Density Functional Theory and its LDA+U extension to study strongly correlated systems. Possible applications range from metallo-organic complexes (for molecular catalysis) to bulk transition-metal compounds. To apply to this position candidates must have a PhD in Physics, Chemistry, Materials Science or closely related subjects and demonstrate strong interests and skills in computer simulations. Good knowledge and experience with DFT as well as in the development and implementation of numerical approaches are highly appreciated. Expertise in programming (fortran 90/95 in particular) and familiarity with Linux/Unix environments are also preferred. The appointment is initially for one year with the possibility of extension to one more year. The position is available immediately but some flexibility on the starting date is offered depending on when it is fulfilled. Candidates should send their curriculum vitae (including list of publications), description of their research activity and interests, and 2 to 3 recommendation letters to: Prof. Matteo Cococcioni Department of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science University of Minnesota, 151 Amundson Hall 421 Washington Av SE Minneapolis, MN 55455, USA -- %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Matteo Cococcioni Department of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science University of Minnesota 151 Amundson Hall 421 Washington Av.
