Opportunities

Our lab in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at NUS conducts interdisciplinary research on energy and climate policy, combining engineering-based modeling with policy and economic analysis. We focus on clean energy transition and net-zero energy systems, technology innovation, and climate change impacts.

We are recruiting postdocs and visiting students/scholars (starting 2026) to join the group. Ph.D. student positions will be available starting Spring/Fall 2027.

Postdocs

We are looking for postdoctoral researchers to join our lab starting Summer/Fall 2026, or at another mutually agreed time.

Qualifications: 1) Ph.D. (awarded or expected soon); 2) strong quantitative skills in modeling and vibe coding; 3) preferred research skills: energy systems modeling, general equilibrium models, integrated assessment modeling, damage functions, etc.
