Faculty of Science
The Faculty of Science (FNWI), part of Radboud University, engages in groundbreaking research and excellent education. In doing so, we push the boundaries of scientific knowledge and pass that knowledge on to the next generation.
We seek solutions to major societal challenges, such as cybercrime and climate change and work on major scientific challenges, such as those in the quantum world. At the same time, we prepare our students for careers both within and outside the scientific field.
Currently, more than 1,300 colleagues contribute to research and education, some as researchers and lecturers, others as technical and administrative support officers. The faculty has a strong international character with staff from more than 70 countries. Together, we work in an informal, accessible and welcoming environment, with attention and space for personal and professional development for all.
We are seeking a motivated Postdoctoral Researcher to join our team and contribute to cutting-edge research in the field of Safe and Sustainable by Design. This position offers an exciting opportunity to work on innovative models and approaches that ensure products and processes are developed with both safety and sustainability in mind. You will be part of an European project with the goal to investigate the application of a safe and sustainable design framework to evaluate alternatives for current plasticisers, flame retardants and surfactants in consumer goods together with industry. If you are passionate about contributing to a sustainable future and have the required qualifications, we encourage you to apply!
Your responsibility as a postdoctoral researcher will be to conduct advanced modelling and simulation to support safe and sustainable design principles. You will be collaborating with interdisciplinary teams in chemistry, environmental science, and related fields.
You will be expected to contribute to scientific publications and present research at international conferences. You will be engaging with both academic and industry stakeholders to implement research findings into practice.
The mission of the Department of Environmental Science is to provide high-quality scientific knowledge that can help the world move towards greater sustainability. To achieve this, we aim to understand and predict the impact of anthropogenic pressures on ecosystems and humans from the landscape to the global scale and use the knowledge obtained to identify solutions for a more sustainable society.
Environmental Science is part of the Radboud Institute for Biological and Environmental Sciences (RIBES) at the Faculty of Science. RIBES, consisting of four departments (Ecology, Plant and Animal Biology, Microbiology, and Environmental Science), has the aim to perform world-leading research in order to understand the response of the natural environment to human impact. This fundamental research is cross-linked with innovative applications in both industry and society with a focus on mitigating ecosystem degradation and climate change and finding solutions to restore the natural environment. We value a diverse workforce and strongly encourage candidates from non-traditional backgrounds or historically marginalised or underrepresented groups to apply.
