OpportunitiesResearch Assistantships: The Institute for Space and Nuclear Power Studies at the University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, NM, USA (http://www.unm.edu/~ISNPS/) has a number of multi-year research assistantships starting in the spring semester 2010, or earlier, for qualifying students to pursue advanced studies toward a PhD in Nuclear Engineering, Chemical Engineering, or Mechanical Engineering. Research areas of interest include fluid flow and thermal analysis of complex systems, compact heat exchangers, high temperature heat pipe and liquid-metal/gas heat exchanger; enhanced cooling of electronics, boiling heat transfer; CFD analysis and reactor thermal hydraulics, micro-channel flow and heat transfer; chemical kinetics and modeling of graphite oxidation during water and air ingress in high temperature reactors; multi-physics simulation; neutronics and burnup analyses; radiation detection and measurements in natural and man made environments; and design of small reactors. Primary selection criteria will emphasize previous GPA, particularly in the above or closely related areas, and prior research and industrial experience. Research assistantship pays competitive 12 months stipend, full tuition and health insurance coverage. Those interested please submit CV and copies of undergraduate and graduate certificates as attachments to email to: isnps@unm.edu.
