The Mechanical Engineering program of the School of Dynamic Systems at the University of Cincinnati invites applications for a tenure-track assistant professor position. The position is available as early as in fall 2013. Candidates for this position should hold (by the time of employment) an earned doctoral degree in mechanical engineering or a closely related engineering field. The successful candidate is expected to build a strong funded research program, publish in archival journals, advise graduate students, and teach both undergraduate and graduate courses in mechanical engineering.
Sponsored by the National Science Foundation and the NSF Institute for Mathematics and its Applications, the University of Minnesota (Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA) is hosting a workshop on the boundary element method (BEM) April 23-26, 2012. This workshop consists of a two-day short course and a two-day colloquium on advances in the BEM with educational and industrial applications. Researchers and engineers from around the world, as well as students (both graduate and undergraduate) are invited to participate in this workshop.
Do you want to learn the boundary element method (BEM) and the latest fast solution methods from the experts around the world? If yes, come and attend the workshop on the BEM in September.
