Position Description

The "Air Quality Research Center" of the Research Center for Environmental Changes, Academia Sinica, is seeking to recruit one full-time tenure track researcher at the rank of Assistant Research Fellow, Associate Research Fellow, or Research Fellow (equivalent to Assistant Professor, Associate Professor, or Professor in universities). This position starts as early as January 1, 2026.

Recognizing the impact of air pollution on public health and the environment, our center established the "Air Quality Research Center" in 2021 to advance research on the physicochemical mechanisms leading to air pollution. We are dedicated to improving the precision measurement, characterization, and numerical modeling of key air pollutants to address current challenges in air pollution mitigation.

PM2.5 and O3 are among the most critical air pollutants affecting urban environments. Their formation and transport involve both macroscopic meteorology and microscopic molecular chemistry. To strengthen our research capacity, we seek a researcher specializing in atmospheric photochemistry or heterogeneous chemistry, with experience in laboratory studies, field studies, or theoretical modeling of reaction mechanisms. The researcher will join our team projects and conduct research on the chemical reaction mechanisms of air pollutants, collaborate with national and international research institutions to develop innovative atmospheric pollution models, and engage in governmental and academic projects and provide scientific recommendations.

Applicants are required to have a doctoral degree; those with an excellent record of independent research are preferred. Application materials shall be submitted on-line through the Academic Jobs Online by including (1)curriculum vitae with a full publication list, (2)a research plan, (3)1-3 representative papers, and (4)contact information of at least three reference peers. For more information, please visit our webpage (https://rcec.sinica.edu.tw/index_en.php?action=researchGroup&cid=2) or contact Ms. Nellie Chang at nellie@gate.sinica.edu.tw. The application deadline is June 30, 2025.

Application Materials Required:
Submit the following items online at this website to complete your application:
  • Cover letters (optional)
  • Curriculum Vitae
  • Research statement
  • Publication list
  • Up to Three Representative Paper(s)
  • Three or more references (no actual letters, just names and email addresses help popup)
