Together, we imagine and build a more sustainable future, training actors who facilitate the transitions of tomorrow.

 

🔍What we expect from you

 

As a Teaching and Research Associate specializing in the physico-chemical characterization of materials for industrial processes, you will be at the heart of our missions in training, research, and innovation carried out at the Center for Training and Research in Industrial and Natural Process Sciences (SPIN). At the heart of this center, you will combine scientific passion and societal impact.

The Center for Training and Research SPIN is recognized for its expertise in Industrial Process Engineering applied to solid-divided environments, at the service of innovation for industrial companies facing numerical and environmental transition challenges. The recruited person will be integrated into the research team of the Laboratory Georges Friedel, a joint unit of CNRS. This laboratory brings together the potential of Mines Saint-Étienne in the fields of materials, mechanics, and processes.

More specifically, the recruited person will strengthen the thematic focused on the reactivity of solid-gas systems for the domains such as energy (storage/thermal/mineral energy of the solar cycle, nuclear fuel cycle...) and the reduction of the environmental footprint of industrial processes (durability of metallic powders for additive manufacturing, decarbonation of processes...), within the Process Transformation Department of Solids and Instrumentation (PTSI).

  • You will carry out teaching and research missions within our multidisciplinary team.
  • You will participate in the development of new teaching methods for our students under apprenticeship and student status, in training at Mines Saint-Étienne. You will contribute to the improvement of the content of teaching and pedagogy.
