phd scholarship in research area of “renewable fuels” at the university of sydney
two phd scholarships are available immediately in dr. fengwang li’s group in the school of chemical and biomolecular engineering, the university of sydney. a stipend valued at aud35,000 per annum is available to successful candidates. scholarship top-ups are available for students with excellent research performance, upon successful application.
the students are expected to conduct postgraduate research for 3 to 3.5 years in the broad research area of renewable fuels, with a specific focus on the electrochemical conversion of small molecules (such as carbon dioxide, water) to value-added chemicals.
to apply for this opportunity, please write to dr. li (fengwang.li@sydney.edu.au) with your motivation, cv and (unofficial) transcripts to initiate a conversation. please start your email subject with “[phd application]”.
eligibility
you must have completed the equivalent of one of the following in an area related to your proposed research:
• bachelor's degree with first class honours (or equivalent),
• master's degree by research,
• master's degree by coursework with an independent research component such as a thesis, dissertation or research project with a minimum overall distinction average.
• an equivalent qualification that demonstrates research experience, excellence and capability.
the group also takes self-financed master and phd students. should you be interested, please contact dr. li to initiate a discussion.
the group is pleased to support chinese students or researchers to apply for csc scholarship. please get in touch early as a standard phd admission process is required in advance and the university tuition fee waiver for csc applicants should be applied before january 15th.

dr fengwang li is a lecturer with the school of chemical and biomolecular engineering at the university of sydney since april 2020. his research aims for a “greener”, carbon-neutral future relying on electrochemical energy. his research is supported by an australian research council discovery early career researcher award (decra).
dr li completed his bachelor’s and master’s degrees in chemistry at renmin university of china, before gaining his phd in chemistry from monash university where his doctoral thesis, on the use of atomically thin materials for electrochemical carbon dioxide catalysis, was awarded the university’s mollie holman medal for best phd thesis. he then moved to canada to complete postdoctoral research at the university of toronto, where he focused on developing catalysts and systems for the conversion of carbon dioxide to value-added fuels and chemicals.
dr li has published more than 50 research articles in top-tier journals including nature, science, nature catalysis, nature materials, angewandte chemie, and journal of the american chemical society.
