Faculty openings

Faculty Applications are only accepted through the online portal. Faculty positions are being advertised on a rolling basis. Applications ae processed periodically. For queries, you may email dsc_secretary@che.iitb.ac.in.

Candidates with at least one chemical engineering degree (UG/PG/Ph.D.) will be considered under all six broad research areas of chemical engineering (see below). Those without chemical engineering degree will be considered only if their core research falls under the specific sub-areas.

Biotechnology and Biosystems Engineering
a. Synthetic biology
b. Cell and gene therapy; drug delivery

Catalysis and Reaction Engineering
a. Experimental catalysis
b. Membrane synthesis and technologies
c. Battery material development and scale up

Soft Matter
a. Sustainable materials and circular economy of materials
b. Aerosol reaction engineering and aerosol nanomaterials

Process Systems and Controls Engineering
a. Process Systems Engineering for sustainability
b. AI/ML in process design and operations

Complex Flows
a. Experimental fluid and granular mechanics
b. Mathematical methods and computational algorithms for complex fluid flows

Thermodynamics and Molecular Simulations
a. Quantum simulation of reactions on quantum computers
b. Charge transfer theory
c. Molecular Modelling for Sustainability

Once the application has been submitted, it is reviewed by a department committee.  Depending on the considered opinion, the candidate is invited for further interactions.
