The College of Engineering at Boston University has embarked on a bold new strategic plan that will pursue excellence and impact along convergent themes: (1) Intelligent, Autonomous and Secure Systems, (2) Synthetic Biology, Tissue Engineering and Mechanobiology, (3) Energy, Sustainability and Climate, (4) Materials by Design, (5) Photonics and Optical Systems, and (6) Neuroengineering, Neuroinformatics, and Neuroscience.
The Department of Mechanical Engineering invites outstanding applicants in all areas of
Mechanical Engineering for tenure-track positions at the level of Assistant Professor beginning
Fall 2014. The Department of Mechanical Engineering is multi-disciplinary with strong research
programs in Biomechanics, Robotics and Control, MEMs and Nanotechnology, Thermo-fluid
Sciences and Energy, Bioacoustics, and Materials. The department is further strengthened by its
affiliation with the Photonics Center, the Division of Materials Science and Engineering, The
Division of Systems Engineering, and the Fraunhofer USA Center for Manufacturing Innovation.
The Department of Mechanical Engineering is accepting applications for the position of Department Chair and Professor, with tenure, starting ideally by September 1, 2013.
