School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering is one of the founding Schools of the Nanyang Technological University. Built on a culture of excellence, the School is renowned for its high academic standards and research. With over 3,000 undergraduates students and 2,000 graduate students it is one of the largest EEE schools in the world and ranks 4th in the field of Electrical & Electronic Engineering in the 2025 QS World University Rankings by Subjects. Today, the School has become one of the world’s largest engineering schools that nurtures competent engineers and researchers. Each year, the School graduates over a thousand students who are ready to take on great ambitions and challenges. For more details, please view: https://www.ntu.edu.sg/eee We are looking for a Research Fellow to conduct research in the theory and simulation of nanomaterials, with a primary focus on 2D materials. Topics include but are not limited to: 2D ferroelectrics, 2D multiferroics, topological materials, and moiré superlattices (twistronics). The role will focus on developing and applying theoretical models and computational quantum chemistry and machine learning methods to uncover novel properties and phenomena in low-dimensional material systems, contributing to NTU’s leadership in physics, materials science and engineering research. Key Responsibilities: Conduct independent and collaborative theoretical and computational research on 2D materials, including ferroelectric, multiferroic, topological, and moiré systems. Develop, implement, and apply advanced simulation techniques (e.g., density functional theory, tight-binding, molecular dynamics) to investigate physical properties and phenomena in nanomaterials. Analyze and interpret computational results; prepare high-quality manuscripts and research reports. Present research findings at group meetings, international conferences, and workshops. Mentor and supervise undergraduate and graduate students in research projects. Collaborate
