Our Mission<\/b><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n
\n

Coventry University Group is a global education group with a mission of creating better futures. Driven by our passion and belief that through education, equity, and innovation our students, people, and communities are empowered to transform their lives and the world around them. Our people are the key to our success and each role within the group plays a key role in shaping the world around us.
\nThe Research Centre for Fluid and Complex Systems specialises in fundamental and applied fluid mechanics and statistical physics and tackles problems in applied mathematics theoretical and experimental sciences with applications to natural, industrial but also societal processes. We have opportunity for an Assistant Professor in fluid mechanics to join the research centre, with the aim to reinforce research in magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) within the fluids research group.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

The Role<\/b><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n
\n

 <\/p>\n

As an Assistant Professor working within FCS you will actively contribute to the centre with 60% of your time being spent on relevant research and 40% spent on teaching. You will contribute to the research centre\u2019s strategy, producing research with a demonstrable contribution to knowledge, society and the economy, growing the centre\u2019s network of national and international collaborators. You will seek external funding through grants or contracts to support your research, whilst supervising relevant staff and students.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The group specialises in turbulence, instabilities, magnetohydrodynamics, transition and control, particulate flows, rotating flows, convection and plasma physics. The group is especially renowned for its cutting-edge research based on the application of these fields to industrial fluid mechanics, nuclear fusion, astrophysical fluid dynamics and especially geophysical fluid dynamics and planetary interiors.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The centre blends theoretical expertise with in-house experimental and numerical approaches. It operates at the core of a large network of international collaborators, conducting MHD experiments in collaboration with high magnetic field facilities. The centre aligns to REF Unit of Assessment 10 (Mathematics) and 95% its output was deemed internationally excellent or world-leading at the 2021 REF exercise. Its research is supported by UK and European funding bodies (UKRI, ERC and others), as well as industry.
