[情報] PhD position available at UMass-Lowell
各位ptt版友大家好，
我正在積極招募2019秋天入學的PhD學生，進行生質能源與生物質材料 (biomass,
biofuel, bioproduct, and biopolymer) 的合成、鑑定、經濟價值分析研究。
我在2018 年秋天加入 UMASS Lowell, 目前實驗室已進駐學校剛裝修好的 Emerging
Technologies and Innovation Center (ETIC)。實驗室現在已經招收了幾個大學部的專
題生進行塑膠回收的研究，在2019年的秋天，預計至少會有一位博士生與一位訪問學者加
入。對於ETIC有興趣的人，麻煩參考以下網址：

目前我希望能在2019秋天再多收一位博士生。UMASS Lowell Plastics Engineering PhD
的申請過程是需要先找到願意支付獎學金的指導教授確認經費後，學校才會發函錄取，因
此現在還在開放申請。歡迎有興趣的同學聯絡我詳談細節 WanTing_Chen@uml.edu （請勿
站內信）。更多關於我的研究和實驗室訊息，請參考網站：

UMASS Lowell 沒有Materials Science, 因此研究材料的教授大部分分佈在Plastics
Engineering 或 Mechanical Engineering。Plastics Engineering 的教授以研究高分子
材料為主。本系在US News上的材料研究所排名座落在 65 - 77

UMASS Lowell 在 Boston北邊, 搭 commuters’ rail 到市中心只須47分鐘，生活機能佳
並鄰近產業鏈。UMass Lowell跟附近的公司也有很多接洽與合作。Plastic Engineering
的校友眾多，校友們也都很樂意支持系上的活動與研究。歡迎有興趣的同學跟我接洽了解
更多細節。
