The Department of Hydrogeology at the TU Berlin focusses on the sustainable management of groundwater resources that are affected by land use change and shifts in climate.
The position focuses on the development of mathematical-numerical methods at catchment scale. In this context, hydrological models as well as flow and solute transport models are to be designed for topics related to the sustainable management of water resources. Participation in hydrogeological courses of 4 LVS (lecture hour) and engagement in the supervision of bachelor and master theses is expected. The willingness to support the department in the acquisition of external funding is desired.
Prerequisite is, in addition to a Master’s degree (or equivalent) in geosciences, geoecology, hydrology, a PhD in the field of numerical models at the catchment scale.
Furthermore, knowledge in:
(i) uncertainty analyses and stochastic methods
(ii) the application of geochemical program codes, such as PHREEQC
(iii) scripting languages, such as Python.
The successful candidate will have good communication skills, especially good written and spoken English and basic German (sufficient language proficiency to teach classes in both German and English is
expected), publication in ISI-listed journals, and teaching experience.
