Master's thesis "Electrocatalytic Reduction of CO2 from DAC Sources"

We want an earth that is worth living on. Our applied research in Circular Economy, Carbon Management, Green Hydrogen and Local Energy Systems makes concrete contributions to achieving the 17 Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations. We are looking for a master's student to contribute to the development of scalable electrochemical processes for converting CO2 into value-added chemicals and fuels.

Requirements

• Ongoing master's studies in chemistry, chemical engineering, materials science, or a related discipline
• Solid background in electrochemistry and/or heterogeneous catalysis
• Familiarity with materials characterization techniques (SEM, XRD, XPS, contact angle, porosimetry)
• Hands-on mindset and genuine interest in experimental laboratory work

Benefits

• Teamwork at eye level: an open-minded team in which you can contribute your own ideas
• Theory meets practice: The opportunity to combine your knowledge from your studies with practical experience at the interface between business and science
• Flex work: Your studies have priority - we offer you flexible working hours that adapt to your everyday study routine, as well as the opportunity to combine mobile working and on-site work by arrangement with the team
• Students@UMSICHT: Comprehensive onboarding, good support and networking opportunities as well as versatile support for your career development through training and keynote speeches
• Health & well-being: Health offers for a good balance in everyday life
