弗吉尼亞理工大學(xué)(Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University),簡(jiǎn)稱 Virginia Tech 或者VT,成立于1872年,是一所世界知名的百年名校,其生物系統(tǒng)工程專業(yè)全美排名13。王智武教授的研究方向主要圍繞有機(jī)物的生物轉(zhuǎn)化技術(shù)開(kāi)展,技術(shù)應(yīng)用于生物能源、環(huán)境保護(hù)、制藥、食品以及生物化工領(lǐng)域。實(shí)驗(yàn)室的研究成果和年報(bào)詳見(jiàn):https://www.wang.bse.vt.edu/ 。 王智武教授實(shí)驗(yàn)室由生物實(shí)驗(yàn)室和污水處理實(shí)驗(yàn)室兩部分組成。生物實(shí)驗(yàn)室坐落在美國(guó)東海岸弗吉尼亞州的黑堡校區(qū)(主校區(qū));污水處理實(shí)驗(yàn)室則坐落于弗吉尼亞北部的大華府地區(qū),離美國(guó)首都華盛頓杜勒斯國(guó)際機(jī)場(chǎng)非常近,生活和交通都非常方便。研究生第一年會(huì)在黑堡校區(qū)進(jìn)行科研和修課,第二年根據(jù)個(gè)人興趣和課題類型可以選擇留在主校區(qū)或是去華盛頓校區(qū)繼續(xù)研究工作。 王教授實(shí)驗(yàn)室現(xiàn)招收三名全獎(jiǎng)研究生。全額獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金包括生活費(fèi)、學(xué)費(fèi)以及保險(xiǎn)費(fèi)。申請(qǐng)人可以是學(xué)士或是碩士,學(xué)術(shù)背景包括化工、環(huán)境工程、生物工程及相關(guān)專業(yè)。托福成績(jī)應(yīng)不低于90 (IBT),或雅思成績(jī)不低于6.5。如果學(xué)術(shù)背景強(qiáng),對(duì)GRE成績(jī)的要求可以放寬或免除。 有興趣的同學(xué)請(qǐng)按照英文廣告中的詳細(xì)要求與王教授郵件聯(lián)系(wzw@vt.edu),非常感謝! RE: Three Graduate Research Assistantships in Biological Systems Engineering at Virginia Tech POSITION DESCRIPTION The Department of Biological Systems Engineering at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, also known as Virginia Tech, is seeking applications for at least three Ph.D. (and/or MS) Graduate Research Assistantships (GRA). The assistantship will cover stipends, tuition waiver, and insurance. The successful candidate will work in Dr. Zhiwu (Drew) Wang's research group (https://www.wang.bse.vt.edu). The VT-BSE graduate program ranked as the 13th best biological/agricultural engineering program in the U.S. VT's ranking in the 2022 edition of Best Colleges is National Universities is 75th. The broad research areas include but are not limited to bioprocessing, wastewater treatment, solid waste management, and bioenergy production. Three example projects to be undertaken by the candidates are listed below. There could be many other research projects for selection at the time of onboarding. Details will be discussed during video conference interview if invited. There are also opportunities for candidates to work in VT’s Northern Virginia campus within the Greater Washington metropolitan area. 1. Characterization of Variability in MSW Streams to Identify Critical Material Attributes for Fuel Production A PhD or a MS student will be supported by this DOE project to understand the characteristics critical to turning low-cost, abundant municipal solid waste (MSW) into conversion-ready feedstocks for producing biofuels through gasification and solid-state anaerobic digestion (SS-AD) as targeted thermal and biological conversion technologies. Since this is a joint project among seven organizations, the candidate working on this DOE project will have the opportunity to learn collaborative skills between universities, national labs, and industrial partners. Candidates with experience in solid waste management are especially encouraged. 2. Biological valorization of hydrothermal liquefaction wastewater with granulated marine Protist A PhD will be supported by this NSF-funded project to establish a robust biological approach to recover carbon and nutrients from hydrothermal liquefaction wastewater in order to enable sustainable hydrothermal liquefaction for biofuel production. The success of this project would pave a new avenue for purifying toxic wastewater by using marine protists. Candidates with experience in biological wastewater treatment are especially welcomed. 3. Bioprocess intensification for advanced wastewater treatment A Ph.D. student will be supported by this industrial project to develop novel bioreactor design and operational strategies to allow high concentration of active biomass to be retained in bioreactors for both high rates of bioreaction and water-biomass separation. The success of this biotechnology would pave a new avenue to cost-effective bioprocessing that can be applied not only for wastewater treatment but also for value-added bioproduct fermentation. CANDIDATE QUALIFICATION The successful candidate is expected to be creative, self-motivated, possess good research attitude, encompass dynamic problem-solving skills, and have a strong desire to solve real-world problems and collaborate in a multidisciplinary environment with both industrial and academic partners. The candidate is expected to communicate research results through high quality peer-reviewed journal and deliver presentations at national/international professional meetings. Specifically, the successful candidate ▪ Must have (or must earn prior to the application deadline) a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in chemical engineering, biological systems engineering, civil engineering, environmental engineering, or a closely related field. ▪ Demonstrated excellent scientific writing and communication skills (e.g., peer-reviewed publications, competitions, etc.). ▪ For international students, TOEFL score is required. For admission, we expect a minimum TOEFL score of 90 (IBT) or IELTS score of 6.5 for admission. GRE may be waived. ▪ Having a U.S. driving license is preferred but not required. APPLICATION PROCEDURE If the program is of your interest, please email Dr. Zhiwu (Drew) Wang at wzw@vt.edu. A full application as a single PDF document package must include (1) A statement of research addressing how your background fit in the position description and candidate qualification described above (1-page limit), (2) an update CV with a full list of publications (if any), (3) all official transcripts, (4) TOEFL or IELTS score(s) (for international candidates), and (4) three reference letters including names, emails, affiliations, and work phone numbers of the referees. The order of the documents in the combined PDF must be followed. Incomplete applications will not be considered. Please include “Graduate Research Assistantship” + “Your Name” as your email subject. Review of applications will begin immediately and continue until the positions are filled. Interested candidates should send an enquiry email only once. Best fit potential candidates will receive the responses and video conference interviews will follow. Successful candidate will need to apply to the Graduate School of Virginia Tech. The deadlines for admissions in Fall 2022 are April 1 (international) and August 1 (domestic), and Spring 2023 are September 1 (international) and January 1 (domestic). Summer admission might be possible. Please visit the website below for more details. (https://graduateschool.vt.edu/admissions/how-to-apply.html) CONTACT INFORMATION Zhiwu (Drew) Wang, Ph.D., P.E.
