Open Positions

Postdoctoral Scholars: There are currently no open positions for a postdoc.

Undergraduate Students: There are multiple undergraduate positions available in the group for sodium-ion battery and electrocatalysis research. To apply, please email Dr. Khani: Your resume or CV and a statement of interest, including your motivation for joining the group and your availability.

Gradute Students: We are currently seeking one Ph.D. graduate student for the following project:

We are recruiting a graduate student to study the thermal behavior, decomposition pathways, and gas evolution of battery materials during abnormal events (for example, external heating). In addition to standard battery testing, the student will be trained to use DSC and TGA coupled with EI-MS and FT-IR, operando DEMS, operando Raman, operando XRD, and operando ultrasonic battery scanning (UBS).

If you are interested in joining my research group and working on these topics, please send me your CV.

Please note that the first step in the application process is to apply to the MS&E program at UT Austin. Once admitted, I will review your application during the admissions period to assess your fit among other candidates interested in joining my group. Keep in mind that final admissions decisions are made by the MS&E Graduate Committee. Learn more about our Materials Science & Engineering Graduate Program here.
