Research Opportunity for Undergraduate Students (Spring/Summer/Fall 2020)

We are always looking for exceptional undergraduate students to perform computational research in our group. Applicants must have a minimum GPA of 3.75. Although computer programming knowledge is not required, many of our UG students take computer programming courses in the computer science program and end up getting a computer science minor. The current hourly rate is $12/hr unless it is an REU position where students are paid a fixed stipend based on total number of hours. Interested students should email Dr. Rai their updated resume and a statement of research interests.

PhD Positions Spring 2019

There are two PhD positions available in Molecular Science and Engineering Laboratory. Our group is involved in developing advanced Monte Carlo/molecular dynamics algorithms and force fields, and application of electronic structure calculations for rational design of catalysts, optoelectronic materials, dye sensitized solar cells, and molecular gels. Research/Teaching Assistantships will cover full tuition and provide competitive stipend. There is significant flexibility in developing a research program that suits student's interests and career aspirations. Overall, we are looking for bright and motivated students interested in pursuing research that leads to meeting our energy needs in a sustainable manner.

Interested students can contact Dr. Rai for additional information and application process at neerajrai@che.msstate.edu.
