About GTIIT
Guangdong Technion - Israel Institute of Technology (GTIIT, 广东以色列理工) has been established by the bi-lateral agreement between Technion - Israel Institute of Technology (Technion, 以色列理工) and Shantou Municipality (汕头市) thanks to the generous donation of Li Ka-Shing Foundation (李嘉诚基金会). It is aimed to build GTIIT to be a world-recognized high-level research-based institute in education, scientific research, and innovation.
Technion - Israel Institute of Technology (Technion, 以色列理工) is one of the best research Institute in the world, where Prof. Albert Einstein (爱因斯坦) served as the first chairman of its society. Technion ranks 85th in the Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU, Shanghai Rankings, 软科世界大学学术排名) in 2019.
All teaching and student supervision etc. are conducted in English. MSc and Ph.D. students will take graduate courses and have a co-advisor in Technion, while the majority of research and experimental activities are in GTIIT. Most importantly, students will be awarded with a diploma by Technion (获得世界学术排名85的，以色列理工的文凭).
Postdoctoral Researchers
There are two postdoctoral positions available for creative, passionate, and highly motivated researchers. Generous salary (~￥250,000 per year provided by the PI + ￥100,000 per year provided by the Shantou City; 待遇丰厚，课题组工资加上汕头市的人才补助年薪可达35万，并且有独立办公室，独立公寓，及五险一金) will be provided. Those with research backgrounds and expertise in, but not limited to:
(1) Fluid Dynamics and/or computational fluid dynamics (流体力学 / 计算流体力学),

(3) Interfacial Phenomena, Microfluidics, and/or Soft Matter (界面现象 / 微流体 / 软物质),
(4) Surface Engineering and/or Micro-/Nano-Fabrications (表面改性 / 微纳米制造)
(5) MEMS and/or piezoelectric materials (微机电系统 / 压电材料)
are encouraged to apply.
Please feel free to contact Dr. Jiang by sending a CV with previous research activities in detail and future research plans (e.g., why and how you will be fitted in and benefited from this group).
Perspective MSc & Ph.D. Students
Funded positions (four in total) are available for creative, passionate, and highly motivated MSc (Master of Science) & Ph.D. (Doctor of Philosophy) students. The tuition will be covered (worth ￥100,000 per year), a generous salary (>￥82,000 per year for Ph.D. students) and subsidized room rental on campus (租房补助) will be provided for both Ph.D. and MSc students. Self-supporting students are also encouraged to apply. For the Ph.D. program, a Master's degree and thesis are required except for exceptional candidates and a minimum GPA of 85 (3.5) in courses is also required. For the MSc program, a minimum GPA of 83 (3.3) is required. The length of study in Ph.D. program is 3 - 4 years with a Master's degree and the MSc program is 2 - 3 years with the completion of a master's thesis. The students will take graduate courses (two semesters for Ph.D. program and one semester for M.S. program) and have a world-renowned co-advisor at Technion, and eventually receive the prestigious MSc and Ph.D. diploma awarded by Technion. You will receive rigorous scientific training and get access/exposure to the world-leading research communities in Interfacial Phenomena and Thermofluids.
