The School of Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) provides a vibrant and nurturing environment for staff and students to carry out inter-disciplinary research in key areas such as Computational Materials Science, Characterisation Materials Science, Defence Composite Materials, Functional Composite Materials, Energy, Nanomaterials, Low Dimensional Materials, Biomaterials Materials, Biological Materials, Bioinspired Materials and Sustainable Materials.

We are looking for a Project Officer / Research Fellow to design and synthesize metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) with tailored redox activity and, ideally, intrinsic electrical conductivity for use in advanced energy storage systems. The research will involve developing and characterizing novel MOF-based materials to explore their electrochemical and electrocatalytic properties across a broad range of energy storage technologies, not limited to Li-ion or Zn-aqueous batteries.
