UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE’S RESEARCH COLLABORATION PLATFORM IN SINGAPORE
ABOUT US
The Cambridge Centre for Advanced Research and Education in Singapore (CARES) is the University of Cambridge’s first overseas research centre. Cambridge CARES is based in Singapore and brings together researchers from around the world to work on new scientific advances and technologies that will benefit Singapore and the international community.
OUR RESEARCH
C4T Project
Centre for Lifelong Learning and Individualised Cognition
The Centre for Lifelong Learning and Individualised Cognition explores cognitive flexibility across the lifespan by developing innovative research in the science of learning and translating it to educational and real-life applications.
The World Avatar™
The World Avatar™ brings together for the first time cross-domain modelling and data storage with an ontology-based expert system to support the design, analysis and operation optimisation of any complex system.

CAREERS
C4T - Research Fellow (Mechanical/Chemical Engineer)
We are looking to fill research positions in maritime decarbonisation modelling. The candidate will investigate topics such as CFD simulations of ammonia and methanol engines, and systems modelling of alternative fuels and application to real-world ship operation. The candidate will require a PhD or equivalent research experience in a combustion topic.
HD4 - Research Fellow (AI Researcher)
We are seeking a Research Fellow to coordinate and report on work package activities, supervise other researchers, lead scientific publications, and collect open-source data to use in knowledge graphs towards a comprehensive and integrated city model of Singapore.
HYCOMBS - Research Fellow (Mechanical/Chemical Engineer)
We are seeking several Research Fellows for HYCOMBS. The candidate will require a PhD or equivalent research experience in a combustion topic relevant to (1) kinetics, (2) laminar and turbulent flame fundamentals, (3) high-pressure combustion, (4) detonations and ignition risk analysis with CFD.
SM3 - Research Fellow (Chemical Engineer)
The candidate should have experience in techno-economics and object-oriented programming, assessing engineering reports and scientific papers on novel synthesis technologies, and extracting key process performance parameters. The preferred candidate would have experience designing and performing simple experimental work in the broad area of process and reaction engineering.
