Assistant Professorship W2 Tenure Track for Modelling of Geosystems

vor 4 Wochen


Darmstadt, Deutschland Technische Universität Darmstadt Vollzeit

The Institute of Applied Geosciences is focusing on the research topics water – energy – environment. We are looking for a dedicated early career scientist with an outstanding research profile that fits into and strengthens the development of the Institute, especially related to the field of geoenergies.

The use of of subsurface geosystems for energy or storage solutions requires an improved process and system understanding of the geological subsurface. Research interests should therefore be focused on the process-based modeling of such geosystems. The following research fields are of special interest:

modeling of thermal-hydraulic-mechanical-chemical-coupled processes (THM-C) development of numerical methods in the field of reservoir modeling use of artificial intelligence in geoscience

Methodological developments may include machine learning, data mining, geodata visualization and geostatistical techniques. TU Darmstadt operates high performance computing resources through the Lichtenberg infrastructure, allowing for flexible and efficient scientific computing, especially for computationally intensive applications.

The successful candidate is expected to establish an externally funded, internationally visible research group and must participate in teaching Geology at the Bachelor’s and Master’s level. Teaching should also include numerical modelling and visualization techniques relevant to geosciences.

As part of the Frankfurt-Rhine-Main metropolitan region, TU Darmstadt and its surroundings are characterized by living internationality. The core element of this is a cosmopolitan climate with functional multilingualism at our university. Therefore, very good English and – after three years at the latest – good German language skills are expected.

The assistant professorship is designated as a qualification professorship according to § 70 HessHG. Accordingly, the duration of the scientific activity during and after the doctorate should generally not exceed nine years or the activity after the doctorate should not exceed four years. This maximum duration may be extended if necessary in the case of children under the legal requirements of § 70 HessHG. Furthermore, applicants should have completed their doctorate at a university other than the TU Darmstadt or have worked scientifically outside of TU Darmstadt for at least two years after completing their doctorate.

Research and teaching performance during this time will be considered in the tenure review process. Upon successful completion of the tenure review, the position immediate becomes a tenured W2 professorship. For further information, please see the tenure guidelines of TU Darmstadt.

The assistant professorship is initially limited to six years. Remuneration follows the German W-Besoldung at level W2 Hessisches Besoldungsgesetz. A comparable employment relationship is possible.

Technical University of Darmstadt intends to increase the number of female employees and encourages female candidates to apply. In case of equal qualifications, applicants with a degree of disability of at least 50 or equal will be given preference. Technical University of Darmstadt is certified as a family-friendly university and offers a dual career program.

Qualified applicants must send a letter of application, a curriculum vitae, and a list of publications, teaching activities and other scientific activities under reference number 46 by 31.03.2024 at the latest to the following address: Dean of Department 11, Materials- and Geosciences, Technische Universität Darmstadt, Alarich-Weiss-Straße 2, 64287 Darmstadt, or as a pdf file to -darmstadt.de.
