job

The Mechanical, Materials, and Aerospace Engineering (MMAE) Department at the Illinois Institute of Technology (IIT) invites applications for a tenure-track Assistant Professor, Associate Professor, or Full Professor position. The ideal candidate will have an interdisciplinary background in mechanics, manufacturing, and materials. Preference will be given to candidates with expertise in multidisciplinary topics such as additive manufacturing, metal processing, powder processing, and optimization of manufacturing processes across a wide range of engineering and scientific applications.

Tenured/Tenure-Track Faculty: Mechanical Engineering

The Department of Mechanical Engineering at Temple University has two positions available for mid-career or senior faculty members at the rank of tenured or tenure-track associate or full professor with the expected start date of Fall 2019. Applicants with expertise relevant to one of the following two areas are particularly encouraged to apply:

Graduate researchers are being sought to join the Penn State Ultrasonics Laboratory, which is part of the department of Engineering Science and Mechanics at Penn State. Research topics include, but are not limited to ultrasonics for nondestructive evaluation/testing, stress waves in solids, influence of microstructure on wave propagation and scattering, diffuse field methods, acoustics applied to qualification of additively manufactured parts, acoustic microscopy, nonlinear elasticity, mechanics of soft materials, and acoustic metamaterials.

The new group of Prof. J. Gaume at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology of Lausanne (EPFL, Switzerland) invites applications by highly motivated, committed, and talented students/researchers for 2 PhD and 1 PostDoc positions in the field of Computational Mechanics for Snow and Avalanche Modeling.

Ph.D. research positions are available immediately in the Advanced Materials Research Lab at the University of Miami to perform interdisciplinary research in the area of bio-inspired self-healing of cementitious materials. Highly motivated applicants are encouraged to send a CV to Dr. Ali Ghahremaninezhad via email at a.ghahremani [at] miami.edu (a[dot]ghahremani[at]miami[dot]edu).

The Mechanical Engineering Department at the University of Washington, Seattle, has a tenure track Assistant Professor opening in Composites and Materials.  More details of the position can be found at the link below. Deadline of application is January 31, 2019, but screening will start right away.
