Job Description

The student research assistant will carry out research in theoretical and computational materials-related chemistry as directed by Dr. Karl Sohlberg. This might involve, but is not limited to, tasks such as: theoretical derivations, development and application of computer code for numerical calculations related to quantum-chemical modeling of molecules and materials, mathematical and statistical analysis of the results obtained from the quantum-chemical calculations, oral and written presentation of scientific results, assisting (and collaborating with) other group members, and computer maintenance.

It is anticipated that the student assistant will need to self-educate in order to accomplish the assigned duties. The student assistant will therefore be expected to learn the mathematical basis of molecular orbital theory, to learn to construct and manipulate digital representations of molecular structures, to learn to write computer software to manipulate files of data, (the development of computer programming skills may be required), to become familiar with the operation of various software codes for quantum-chemical calculations (including codes that are text-file driven, not graphical-user-interface driven) and in general to obtain whatever background is required to advance the assigned project. While Dr. Sohlberg and other group members will assist the student assistant in gaining this knowledge, it will not be taught as might be expected in a formal university class.


Qualifications

The student research assistant is expected to be familiar with General Chemistry and with mathematics through calculus. Higher levels of preparation in chemistry, and mathematics, especially familiarity with linear algebra and differential equations is desirable but not required. The student research assistant is expected to be fluent in the use of Windows-based computers and standard office software. Experience with computer programming is highly desirable. The student must be in good academic standing. Completed Freshman year in STEM major.
