The Science & Technology Group at KU Leuven Campus Kulak in Kortrijk offers education in a broad range of bachelors programmes in the sciences, including mathematics, physics, computer science, and engineering. With several active research groups on campus, Kulak provides a multidisciplinary and stimulating environment for staff, researchers, and students. The successful candidate will become part of the Space Plasma Research Lab, where research focuses on space physics and advanced computational modelling of plasma processes.

We are offering a junior postdoctoral position in space physics, with a strong focus on kinetic particle-in-cell simulations of plasma processes using state-of-the-art codes on high-performance computing systems. The successful candidate will be appointed in the Department of Mathematics and will carry out their research at KU Leuven Campus Kulak.
