About Universiti Teknologi Brunei

Basic information and contact details for Universiti Teknologi Brunei

UTB is the main provider of technical higher education in Brunei, a sultanate that shares the island of Borneo with provinces of Malaysia and Indonesia. It aspires to be "a global university impacting society”, with a mission "to nurture socially responsible students". Launched in 1986 as a technical institute offering higher national diplomas, UTB attained university status in 2008, offered graduate courses from 2010 and took on its current name in 2016. Further progress was reflected in accreditation by the European Federation for Management Development in 2023. It moved to its current campus in 1998. It aims to offer "hands-on education and industry-based programmes", which are delivered in either English or Malay. Its faculties include schools of business, design, computer engineering, applied science and mathematics, and engineering, as well as three research centres. The most recent of these, the Centre for Agri-Food Science and Technology (CrAFT), was set up in 2018 as part of a national drive to diversify Brunei’s economy. The undergraduate degree in petroleum engineering has been reshaped and relaunched as energy engineering, in order to incorporate renewable fuels and sustainable production. UTB remains a small institution, with 504 new students admitted for the 2023-4 academic session. Most are accommodated on-campus, within walking distances of lecture halls and laboratories. New memoranda of agreement were signed in 2023 with Mitsubishi Corporation. The deal included an electric car for UTB, as well as sponsorship for five students each year.

Research Fellow in Early-Universe Stellar and Galactic Chemical Evolution

UNIVERSITY OF SURREY

University of Surrey

United Kingdom, Guildford

institution

University of Surrey

United Kingdom, Guildford


The University of Surrey is a global community of ideas and people, dedicated to life-changing education and research. We are ambitious and have a bold vision of what we want to achieve - shaping ourselves into one of the best universities in the world, which we are achieving through the talents and endeavour of every employee. Our culture empowers people to achieve this aim and to collectively and individually make a real difference. The role We are seeking an enthusiastic and creative researcher to join a 3-year research project, The Stellar Chemical Blueprint of the Early Universe, led by Dr Robert Izzard at the University of Surrey in collaboration with Professor Chiaki Kobayashi at the University of Hertfordshire, and funded by STFC. Recent observations with the James Webb Space Telescope have revealed very young galaxies whose chemical compositions are unlike those of galaxies in the local Universe. In particular, some high-redshift, low-metallicity galaxies show nitrogen enhanced by around a factor of ten, with carbon also enhanced in some systems. These discoveries pose a major challenge to current models of stellar evolution, nucleosynthesis and galactic chemical evolution. The project asks a fundamental question: which stars made the first chemical elements observed in the earliest galaxies, and how did they do so quickly enough to explain the JWST data?  The successful candidate will work at the interface of stellar evolution, stellar population nucleosynthesis and galactic chemical evolution. The project will develop new models of low- and zero-metallicity stars, including single stars, binary stars, massive stars, very-massive stars and AGB stars. These models will be used to predict chemical yields, especially of carbon, nitrogen and oxygen, and to test whether they can reproduce the abundance patterns observed in early galaxies. The work will make use of and extend the open-source binary_crapid population-synthesis code, including its MINT interpolation framework. It will also connect stellar-population results to one-dimensional and three-dimensional galactic chemical evolution simulations, allowing direct comparison with JWST galaxies and forthcoming survey data from facilities such as DESI, MOONS and PFS. The science goals of the proposal are to: identify which stellar sources can produce the unusual nitrogen and carbon abundances observed in early JWST galaxies; quantitatively model the chemical yields of low- and zero-metallicity single and binary-star populations; test the roles of AGB stars, massive stars, very-massive stars and binary interactions in early chemical enrichment; incorporate state-of-the-art stellar yields into galactic chemical evolution models; compare model predictions with JWST observations and forthcoming survey data to determine the origin of the elements in the first galaxies. The role will involve: developing new low- and zero-metallicity stellar-evolution grids for use in binary_c; modelling the chemical yields of single and binary-star populations across a wide mass range; investigating whether AGB, massive, very-massive and binary stars can explain the nitrogen and carbon abundances observed in early galaxies; implementing and testing uncertain input physics, including mass loss, nuclear reaction rates and interpolation methods; coupling stellar-population results to galactic chemical evolution models; comparing model predictions with JWST observations of high-redshift galaxies; publishing results in leading journals and presenting the work at national and international meetings; contributing to the BRIDGCE collaboration and to the wider research culture of the Astrophysics Group at Surrey. This is a fixed-term, full-time position for three years, and is planned to start in October 2026. About you You will have: a PhD, or equivalent research experience, in astrophysics, physics or a closely related discipline; experience in computational or data-driven astrophysics; programming experience relevant to scientific research; the ability to develop, run and interpret quantitative models; the ability to communicate research clearly through written work, presentations and collaboration; a track record of research outputs appropriate to career stage; the ability to work both independently and as part of a collaborative research team. We recognise that candidates may come from different research backgrounds. You do not need to have worked previously on every aspect of stellar evolution, binary stars and galactic chemical evolution, but you should be motivated to develop expertise across these areas as part of the project. How to apply Applications should be submitted online via the University of Surrey jobs portal. Please include: a CV, including list of publications; a cover letter explaining your interest in the role and how your experience fits the project; contact details of at least two referees. Interviews are expected to take place in June, either in person or online. Informal enquiries are welcome and should be directed to Dr Robert Izzard at r.izzard@surrey.ac.uk.

Postdoc Position in the Anthropology of Art and Digital Media

UNIVERSITY OF VIENNA

Austria, Vienna Danubepier Hov

institution

University of Vienna

Austria, Vienna Danubepier Hov


The University of Vienna is a community of almost 11,000 individuals, including approximately 7,700 academic staff members, who passionately pursue answers to the profound questions that shape our future. Fueled by curiosity and a deep sense of duty, they contribute invaluable insights to research and teaching, enriching our society. Are you inspired and driven by the desire to make a meaningful impact? We are currently seeking a/an Postdoc Position in the Anthropology of Art and Digital Media 49 Faculty of Social Sciences Startdate: 01.10.2026 | Working hours: 40 | Collective bargaining agreement: §48 VwGr. B1 lit. b (postdoc) Limited until: 30.09.2028 Reference no.: 5672 Contract until: Sept 30 2028. The initial contract is for one year. Based on a satisfactory performance, the contract will be renewed for an additional year. Job interviews will be held on Zoom in early July. Project Overview: As a postdoctoral researcher, you will work for the ERC project ‘The Anthropology of the Future: An Art World Perspective’ (ANTHROFUTURE), led by Prof. Manuela Ciotti (Principal Investigator, PI). The project is based at the Department of Social and Cultural Anthropology, University of Vienna. ANTHROFUTURE focuses on the art world as an interlocked digital-physical system and ethnographic site. The project uses innovative multimodal methodologies to generate analytical and theoretical advancements on the future as a temporal category in its comparative and political dimensions across the regional contexts under analysis. Further details are available at: https://www.anthrofuture.com. As part of the ANTHROFUTURE team, you will carry out a digital ethnography of artists and social media in South Asia and the Gulf region. Short visits to the field sites to meet artists are included in the project. You will investigate the visual content production driving social media platforms such as Instagram and TikTok. These are unique generative sites for understanding how art world institutions and professionals inhabit spheres transformed by the acceleration of the future into the present, induced by the pandemic and the multiple crises of the present. You will capture and examine the visual content produced by artists and zoom in on a selected number of them – across age groups and based in the regions under analysis – in order to research and develop case studies. The above social media platforms have become increasingly popular in the art world, leading scholars to investigate ‘art after Instagram’ (MacDowall and Budge 2021). Research on how artists inhabit these spaces is therefore key. Scholars have argued that digital media are bound to be transformed by the actors using them (Miller et al. 2016) and need to be provincialised through ethnographic studies to show the particular ways in which they shape sociocultural worlds, beyond claims of universally homogeneous usage (Coleman 2010). You will extend these arguments to the social media platforms in question, which uniquely foreground the production of digital content and challenge ‘traditional’ art school education through an increasing number of users who are not formally trained in art. This project will ask: What does visual content tell us about artists’ participation in the art world? How do artists navigate the digital and physical dimensions of this world between censorship risks and precarious environments? How does visual content relate to ideas of the future? Based on the insights generated through this ethnography, you will carry out a data harvest from social media platforms with the aid of a web developer provided by the project.  Your tasks: You will take on research and administrative tasks to support the project ANTHROFUTURE and will be expected to: Work on your research project within ANTHROFUTURE and its completion within 2 years Carry out research in full compliance with ethics, data, and best-practice research guidelines agreed with the ERC, and be supported to do so Develop and deliver high-quality, innovative research outcomes related to the topic of the research project Participate in conferences of appropriate learned societies and associations Produce research publications for leading international peer-reviewed journals, as well as book chapters for ANTHROFUTURE Produce research dissemination materials for the project’s public-facing website and social media channels Assist with exhibition projects (both physical and digital) Work with the project administrator to ensure that they have the information and materials needed to support the smooth running of the case study and the wider ANTHROFUTURE project Work closely with the PI and the other members of the ANTHROFUTURE research team to assist with research and outcome delivery, and other tasks as agreed with the PI Travel, including international travel where necessary and appropriate This is what we look for: Must-haves: Completed PhD degree in the fields of digital anthropology, digital humanities, anthropology of media, anthropology of data, or anthropology of art Experience in academic writing and multimodal research methods, with a focus on digital media Excellent command of written and spoken English (C1 Level)  You should be a team player with strong social skills to be able to successfully work and collaborate with the ANTHROFUTURE team IT user skills: e.g. MS Office What we offer: Work-life balance: Our employees enjoy flexible, family-friendly working hours, with the option for hybrid work (partially in home office) upon agreement.
