PhD opportunity at University of South Florida (Fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, or combustion background)

I am seeking a PhD student to join my group at the University of South Florida, working on advanced propulsion and combustion! The role involves designing and running combustion experiments, working with optical diagnostics, and handling real hardware—where things often don’t work the first time. A strong background in fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, or combustion is preferred, along with a hands-on mindset and persistence.

If you are interested, or know someone who might be, feel free to reach out to me (jeongwonkim@usf.edu). #USF #PhD #Mechanical #Aerospace
