Tenure-Track Positions in (1) Solid Mechanics and (2) Bioengineering at the University of Colorado

The Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Colorado
at Boulder invites applications for two full-time positions beginning
fall 2010. The positions are for tenure-track assistant professors with
disciplinary expertise in the areas of (1) Bioengineering (posting #808181), and (2) Solid Mechanics/Materials Physics (posting #808182);
higher rank may be considered for experienced candidates. Candidates
are expected to strongly complement and strengthen existing
departmental research in biomechanical/biomaterials engineering, energy
and environmental engineering, micro/nanosystems engineering, materials
engineering or solid/fluid mechanics. Candidates must have an earned
doctorate in Mechanical Engineering or a closely related field with a
strong background in research in their area of specialization.

Successful candidates must have a strong commitment to scholarship, the
development of an externally funded research program, and teaching at
the undergraduate and graduate levels in mechanical engineering.
Exceptionally well-qualified candidates with outstanding credentials
may be considered for appointment at an appropriately higher academic
level. Post-doctoral or similar professional experience is highly
desirable but not required.

Interested persons should apply through the web site (http://www.jobsatcu.com)
using the appropriate posting numbers and submit electronic files (pdf
format) containing a cover letter, curriculum vita, two-page statements
of research and teaching interests, respectively, and the names,
addresses, and telephone numbers of at least three references.

Review of applications will begin as they are received, and will
continue until the positions are filled. Additional information
regarding the Mechanical Engineering Department search process as well
as our research and academic programs can be found at (http://www.colorado.edu/mechanical/). The University of Colorado is committed to diversity and equality in education and employment.
