Postdoctoral Researcher in Inorganic and Organometallic Chemistry
We seek a highly motivated, dedicated Postdoctoral Researcher to conduct innovative research that is focused on the preparation and characterization of target organic compounds, highly air-sensitive organometallic species, and novel photoluminescent metal complexes. We offer a well-equipped laboratory and a recently upgraded infrastructure for NMR, X-ray crystallography, and photoluminescence spectroscopy. Applicants must hold a postgraduate degree at PhD level (or any other equivalent foreign degree) in inorganic or organometallic chemistry.
This position is available immediately on or after November 1st, 2026, for 18 months, with the possibility of extension, given adequate progress, mutual agreement, and the availability of additional funding. Applications including a letter of motivation, detailed CV, and the contact information of at least two professional references should directly be sent to Dr. Stollenz.
Application deadline is August 16th, 2026
We are looking for Master Students!
Proper training in our research lab (manipulation of air-sensitive compounds using
Schlenk techniques, column chromatography, crystallization techniques, NMR, IR, UV-Vis,
fluorescence spectroscopy) within at least 1 summer semester before joining the MSCB program is required.
Check out the new Double Owl track Chemistry BS / Chemical Sciences MS!
Please contact Dr. Stollenz for more information.
Research Opportunities for Undergraduates:
Minimum requirements: experience in organic chemistry and a high motivation for research
(minimum GPA: 3.5)
Undergraduate researchers are asked to stay at least for 2 semesters in the group, (including 1 summer semester). We encourage all undergraduate research
students of our group to join the KSU MSCB program!
Registration for CHEM 4100 is possible (Junior level and beyond; 1 credit hour translates
into 3 hours of laboratory work).
An end-of-the semester research report and participation in group meetings is required
for each student.
Research Opportunities for Undergraduates/Graduate Students (Europe):
