Dear collegues,
I am inviting applications for postdoctoral positions (2-3 years) at Shenzhen University (Shenzhen, China) in the broad area of ocean wave–related studies. Successful candidates will work with me on one or more of the following research directions:
-
Development and application of AI-based models for ocean waves, storm surges, and/or marine ecology
-
Microwave and/or lidar remote sensing of sea surface winds and waves
-
Data assimilation and data fusion for numerical and/or AI-based wave models
-
Wave climate analysis and variability
-
Other relevant research topics (relevant to AI oceanography, ocean remote sensing, wind-waves, or storm surge), subject to discussion, that align with the candidate’s expertise and interests
It would be nice if the candidate have a strong background in one or more related fields, such as:
-
Marine sciences / physical oceanography
-
Computer science / artificial intelligence / data science
-
Remote sensing
-
Geography or related disciplines
Interdisciplinary experience is highly encouraged.
Eligibility (University Requirements, I can do nothing about it)
-
Applicants must have obtained their PhD within the past 3 years, and
-
Be no older than 35 years of age at the time of application.
Salary and Benefits
Annual before-tax income: approximately 330,000 CNY (≈ 40,000 EUR) [China offers a significantly lower cost of living than developed countries, while maintaining a comparable standard of living, making this position financially competitive]
On-campus dining: University cafeterias operate three meals per day, with an average cost of 15–20 CNY per meal. In addition, each postdoctoral researcher receives a monthly meal allowance of 300 CNY.
Sports and fitness facilities: Access to all university sports and fitness facilities, typically costing 5–20 CNY per visit. A yearly sports subsidy of 400 CNY is also provided.
Application Information
Application period: Open all year around
How to apply: Interested candidates are welcome to contact me directly (Haoyu Jiang, Haoyujiang@szu.edu.cn), preferably with a CV and a brief description of research interests.
I would greatly appreciate it if you could share this opportunity within your professional networks or recommend suitable candidates.
Best regards,
Haoyu
