I realized other than UTAR, there wasn't one consistent thread where research opportunities were posted. Seeing them scattered all over the forum drove me crazy! So here's a list of links pointing to uni threads, as well as some archived ones for fun.

University Threads:
• UTAR Research Vacancies and Opportunities, Master/PhD
• UKM Institute of Systems Biology (INBIOSIS) PostGrad Opportunities

Archive:
These are many years old and are no longer active.
• Funded Masters/PhD program around the world
• Systematics and Biodiversity of Orb-Weaver Spiders, UTAR, MSc
• Civil Engineering Opportunity Leading to MPhil and PhD degrees, Tianjin University
• Graduate Research Assistant in the area of development economics, MMU, Masters
• Quantification of Myocardial Infarction And Cardiac Remodelling Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging, UM, Msc
• Scale-up of fungal solid-state fermentation system for production of laccase, UM, possible MSc/PhD

Physics/Optical Engineering Research Assistant at HWUM
Fundamental Study of the Dependence of Pulse Duration on the Modulation Depth of a MoS2-based Q-Switched Fibre Laser
https://www.jobstreet.com.my/en/job/researc...neering-3931208

Heriot-Watt University Malaysia is seeking to recruit an enthusiastic candidate to help deliver research in the area of Physics/Optical Engineering. The successful candidate will be employed for a period of 12 months, and will be required to fulfil the research obligations of a project entitled 'Fundamental Study of the Dependence of Pulse Duration on the Modulation Depth of a MoS2-based Q-Switched Fibre Laser' . This research is funded by the Ministry of Education and aims to study the underlying principles of short pulse - high peak power Q-switched fibre laser using MoS2 as saturable absorber (SA) material, and also the relationship between the pulse duration and modulation depth of the SA material. The outcome is expected to have controllable (based on modulation depth) high peak power, short pulse Q-switched fibre laser. The post-holder will be required to demonstrate a thorough knowledge of atomic, optical & solid state/semiconductor physics, physical chemistry (chemical bonding & structure) or material science (structural dynamics), and to have a working knowledge of a range of topics within the sphere of their chosen discipline. They will also be expected to work as part of a wider research team, and to develop strong links with colleagues located at the Malaysia and Scottish campuses, as well as with those partners and collaborators related to the project. The successful candidate will also be required to register for a higher research degree, for example, Doctor of Philosophy or Master of Philosophy, for which a tuition fee waiver will be granted. As a requirement of the tuition fee waiver, the post-holder may also be required to tutor undergraduate students. Applications must be submitted by 3 May 2019


Graduate Research Assistant at UM
https://www.jobstreet.com.my/en/job/graduat...sistant-3917403

Perovskite nanomaterials are 1-dimensional self-assembled semiconductor quantum well. The objective is to understand property-structural-processing of the materials so that new understanding can be gained. The understanding of these property will help to improve electronic and optical performance of such materials. In this project, you will explore how processing influences the structural property through the use of x-ray diffraction, time-resolved photoluminescence, modelling and the fabrication of field effect transistor using the materials. Candidate must possess at least Master's Bachelor Degree in Electronic/Electrical/Materials Engineering, Chemistry, Physics, or Equivalent.Must be willing to pusuit advanced study (PhD)
