Professor Yanliang Zhang’s lab at the University of Notre Dame (A top 18 University in US) has multiple PhD student opening positions. Prof. Zhang’s lab is working on cutting-edge research topics on additive manufacturing, scalable nanomanufacturing, energy harvesting and storage, flexible electronics and wearable/implantable devices for health monitoring and therapeutics. Our groundbreaking research has been published in top journals including Nature, Nature Materials, Energy and Environmental Science, Chemical Society Reviews, Advanced Materials etc. Our research is multidisciplinary in nature, and we welcome students of all engineering and science majors to apply. The students have the opportunity to receive a PhD degree in Mechanical Engineering, and a secondary PhD degree in Materials Science and Engineering if they participate in the MSE PhD program. Interested applicants should send resume to Prof. Zhang by email: yzhang45@nd.edu. In addition, the applicants need to complete online application before the deadline Dec. 31.

Professor Zhang is the Advanced Materials and Manufacturing Collegiate Chair, and a Tenured Associate Professor. He is a recipient of the prestigious National Science Foundation Career Award, and Young Investigator Award from International Thermoelectric Society. The mission of Professor Zhang’s lab is to create revolutionary materials and manufacturing methods in order to improve energy and environmental sustainability and individual wellbeing by addressing grand challenges our society is facing. To do so, we have established a transformative nanoscale-to-macroscale engineering approach that synergistically integrates fundamental and applied research programs into a coherent effort.
