Research Fellow in Advanced Semiconductor Device Modelling — University of Surrey
University of Surrey
The University of Surrey seeks a full-time Research Fellow to model source-gated and multimodal transistors on an EPSRC project in Guildford, UK. Salary £38,448–£46,970 a year; apply by 2 November 2026 at 23:59 GMT.
This is a salaried, fixed-term academic research job at the University of Surrey, not a student scholarship. The Research Fellow will work on EPSRC project EP/Y000196/1 under Dr Radu Sporea, developing and validating models and simulations of source-gated and multimodal transistors. Depending on expertise, work may use TCAD, compact modelling, numerical methods or AI-assisted modelling. The fellow will work with experimental researchers, fit models to measured device data, publish results and present findings. The post is full time and runs up to July 2027. It is based in Guildford, United Kingdom. Surrey lists salary at £38,448–£46,970 per year and may offer a pension, relocation assistance where appropriate and flexible working subject to duties.
