We're hiring at Northwestern! In Mechanical Engineering, we have TWO openings (incl. one in manufacturing) and one tenure-track opening in Materials Science & Engineering. Please share/retweet within your networks. I couldn't be more proud to be @NorthwesternEng!

We explain how to understand the relationship between the structural modes of 2D halides and their orbital order, why they're all insulating; e.g. RuCl3 can never have 3 degenerate t2g states. This applies to other materials with edge-connected octahedra. journals.aps.org/prb/abstrac…
Join us @NorthwesternEng. Our MSE department is hiring TWO tenure-track faculty members in experimental, computational, or theoretical MSE. bit.ly/NU-MSE-FacSearch. #materials @Chemjobber

Northwestern Materials Science & Engineering is hiring TWO tenure-track positions in all fields! One month in, and I can't begin to describe how wonderful our community of students, staff, & faculty is. RTs and ad shares are much appreciated!
