We are building a research team of graduate students or post-doctorate for our laboratory. Our projects are related to the application of laser ultrasound technologies and fiber-optics sensors technologies to the non-destructive test and evaluation (NDT&E), and Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) of important engineering structures, such as wind turbine, space launch vehicle, nuclear power plant, and aircraft. All the projects are application based with supports from the industries or government and have great potential to be commercialized. If you are highly motivated, we want to invite you to join our research team.
Basic Requirements:
- Mechanical / Aeronautics / Aerospace / E&E / Mechatronics engineering background
- Good English language proficiency.
Financial Supports:
- Research assistantship will be provided. Starting pay is 900,000 Korean Won for PhD or 600,000 Korean Won for master. Salary for post-doc is between 1,500,000 and 2,000,000 Korean Won.
- Annual increment of 50,000 ~ 100,000 Korean Won.
- Incentive bonus for publication.
- Tuition fee discount depending on the grade of the coursework for each semester. Previous records show that an average student could get 40% discount from the total tuition fee.

The requirement for improved efficiency and reduced environmental impact is continually driving civil aero-engine designers to consider both novel propulsion systems as well as airframe architectures. The success of these proposals relies on a clear understanding of the complex aerodynamics associated with the integration of the propulsion and airframe systems. Funded PhD studentships are available for aerodynamic research in the areas of propeller aerodynamics, intake design, vortical flows and aircraft aerodynamics. The research will be conducted using experimental, computational and analytical methods and will utilise the Cranfield University Large-Scale Low-Speed Wind Tunnel as well as sophisticated Particle Image Velocimetry methods. The research will offer the opportunity to work with industry in this field and will enable individuals to be well prepared for a rewarding career after successful completion of the PhD.
Entry requirements
Applicants for the post should have EU residence status and must have a first-class or upper second-class degree in engineering or a related area. Fully funded studentships are only available to applicants with UK residence status. An aerospace background would be a distinct advantage as would practical experience of experimental and computational aerodynamics.
Funding
A range of good funding arrangements is available for the majority of these opportunities.
