Post-Master EngD position on Designing a plasma for disinfection
Job description
The EPG group within the Applied Physics department seeks to hire an outstanding EngD candidate within the field of plasma physics.
This is a two-year program and leads to an Engineering Doctorate (EngD). An important part of the programme is the design project which will be performed at Wassenburg Medical and Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e). The project is spread over two years and aims to develop your design engineers' abilities. In the project, a specific design objective must be reached within a restricted period of time and with limited means.
This EngD project is part of a large project that aims at the advancement of disinfection of medical equipment at several stages - the gas phase plasma and the plasma in interaction with water. The final goal is to maximize efficiency in conditions of small volume and high throughput.
