A postdoctoral position is available immediately at the Chemical Engineering
Department, University of Delaware, under the supervision of Professor
Babatunde Ogunnaike, on a recently established joint research program with
Corning, Inc.  The successful candidate will be engaged in the development
of novel techniques for effective anticipatory control of product quality
for industrial processes. The project involves both theoretical and
industrial experimental work to be carried out in collaboration with
scientists and control/process engineers at Corning. While the successful
candidate will be physically located in Colburn Lab at the University of
Delaware, the scope of the work includes some travel to Corning R & D
headquarters in Corning, N.Y.  (For more information about the company,
please visit www.corning.com). 

 

The successful candidate will have a Ph.D. in chemical engineering (or
related area), with expertise in chemical process dynamics, modeling, and
control; familiarity with statistical data analysis is beneficial but not
compulsory. Compensation will depend on qualification and experience.

 

Qualified applicants should send, in electronic form, a cover letter,
curriculum vitae and a list of three references to: Professor Babatunde
Ogunnaike ([log in to unmask]).  Review of applications will begin
immediately and continue until the position is filled, but no later than
January 31, 2008.
