Job Summary
This Master's thesis position at the Institute of Energy Technologies (IET-1) offers an opportunity to contribute to the energy transition by researching Anion Exchange Membrane (AEM) electrolysis. The successful candidate will focus on developing cost-effective, non-precious metal catalysts to replace nickel-based materials. Day-to-day responsibilities include performing literature reviews, conducting electrochemical experiments such as Voltammetry and Impedance Spectroscopy, and analyzing the chemical stability and surface properties of catalyst mixtures. The role is ideal for a student in Chemistry or Material Sciences who enjoys hands-on laboratory work and data interpretation. This position is particularly attractive due to its placement in a world-class scientific environment at Forschungszentrum Jülich, offering flexible working hours, fair compensation, and the chance to contribute to a potential scientific publication while completing a degree.
