TEACHING ACTIVITIES

The courses will be taught at the Besançon-Vesoul University Institute of Technology (IUT), part of Marie and Louis Pasteur University (UMLP), within the Mechanical and Production Engineering (GMP) department. The Bachelor's Degree in Technology (B.U.T) GMP is a three-year vocational course (Bac+1 to +3) that prepares students for middle management positions. All teaching will take place at the Besançon site, on the Bouloie campus.

The successful candidate will be required to:

• contribute to the acquisition of critical learning in the areas of materials mechanics, modelling and dimensioning.
• actively participate in the training of students by providing them with a rigorous understanding of physical phenomena, which is essential for their future role as senior technicians with a university education.
• be able not only to teach theory, but also to put it into practice with students
• be directly involved in the design, assembly, testing and analysis of experimental devices, providing students with solid practical experience and a strong link between theory and application.
• will also participate in the life of the department and educational activities (open days, forums, Parcoursup, etc.), attending meetings, participating in examinations and juries, and monitoring internships and work-study programmes.

RESEARCH ACTIVITIES

The successful candidate will join the FEMTO-ST institute (Franche-Comté Électronique Mécanique Thermique et Optique – Sciences et Technologies, UMR 6174) and the Applied Mechanics department in Besançon. They will strengthen the ECTO (mEcano-Chimie et TribolOgie) team, whose work is at the interface of three disciplinary fields: tribology / materials mechanics / mechanochemical couplings.

The successful candidate will be required to:
• Conduct and lead research activities in the field of mechanical and frictional behaviour of structured surfaces;
• Participate in the supervision of doctoral students and interns, and contribute to the development of collaborative projects (national and international);
• Develop academic collaborations, in line with the department's research areas, and industrial collaborations, particularly with the regional, national and international industrial fabric;
• Produce high-level scientific results, promoted through publications in international peer-reviewed journals.
