Beschreibung
Job description
You are expected to conduct research toward a net-zero economy, with a focus on strategy, innovation, entrepreneurship, or policy in the context of carbon technologies and carbon markets. Your work is scientifically rigorous and at the same time relevant to industry and policymakers. Your empirical work could focus on energy or heavy industry but could also be sector-overarching if it relates to relevant mitigation pathways such as carbon dioxide removal (CDR). An integral part of your work consists of advising PhD and master students. By supporting some of the group's diverse teaching activities, you are directly contributing to SusTec's innovative approach to sustainability and helping bridge research and learning. Further, you will have the opportunity to contribute to shaping the group's strategy, involve yourself in funding proposals and gain experience in leading research projects and teams.
In general, postdoctoral researchers at ETH Zurich have a full-time employment. A part-time employment may only be considered in exceptional cases (e.g. child- or familycare, other projects or employment)
