2 weeks ago
Danmarks Tekniske Universitet (DTU) is a leading technical university globally recognized for the excellence of its research, education, innovation, and scientific advice. We strive for academic excellence in an environment characterized by collegial respect and academic freedom tempered by responsibility.
Job DescriptionThis PhD scholarship focuses on linking pressure from mixture toxicity of shipping discharges to environmental impacts. The study aims to develop an assessment framework for cumulative effects of contaminants on marine ecosystems.
Main Responsibilities- Develop damage modelling to quantify environmental effects of shipping activities.
- Conduct ecological / eco-toxicological experiments investigating contaminant mixtures' impact on marine plankton.
- Investigate fate of contaminants during shipping activities.
We expect candidates with a two-year master's degree within natural sciences or a similar degree with an academic level equivalent. Experience in modelling, ecotoxicology, experimental plankton ecology, life cycle assessment, and analytic chemistry is an advantage.
Candidates must have flexibility regarding research stays abroad, good communication skills in English, and ability to conduct research independently. Collaborative skills and strong interest in participating in an inter-disciplinary international research environment are also required.
BenefitsThe appointment will be based on the collective agreement with the Danish Confederation of Professional Associations. The salary will be agreed upon with the relevant union. The period of employment is 3 years, with an expected starting date of 1 December 2024.
How to ApplySubmit your complete online application no later than 20 September 2024 (23:59 Danish time). Your application should include a cover letter, curriculum vitae, grade transcripts, BSc/MSc diploma, and a draft project description.
