Join Our Lab

We are looking for passionate researchers to join our team

We are always seeking motivated individuals at all levels — from undergraduate students to postdoctoral researchers — who share our passion for advancing the science of multifunctional metallic materials.

If you are excited about cutting-edge research in amorphous and nanocrystalline alloys, magnetocaloric materials, or shape memory alloys, we would love to hear from you!

🔬 Open Positions

PhD Students

We have PhD positions available for students interested in developing and characterizing novel functional materials. We are currently hiring PhD students to work on exciting projects related to:

  • Bulk metallic glasses — synthesis, characterization, and applications of BMGs with enhanced functonal properties
  • High entropy alloys — investigating novel HEAs for various applications
  • Magnetic shape memory alloys — exploring MSMAs with multifunctional properties and optimized phase transformation behavior

Requirements:

  • MSc degree (or equivalent) in Materials Science, Physics, Chemistry, or a related field
  • Strong interest in experimental materials research and characterization techniques
  • Good knowledge of materials physics and metallurgy
  • Good communication skills in English
  • Ability to work independently and as part of a collaborative team
  • Experience with materials characterization techniques is a plus

Interested candidates should first contact us to discuss potential research topics. Please send your CV and a brief cover letter to Prof. Mariusz Hasiak at mariusz.hasiak@pwr.edu.pl.

Formal application and enrollment are handled through the Wrocław University of Science and Technology Doctoral School.
