The Faculty of Architecture, Civil Engineering and Environmental Sciences of the Technische Universität Braunschweig invites applications for a
The School of Mechanical Engineering and Mechanics (宁波大学机械工程与力学学院) is actively recruiting in all levels of broad fields and subjects of mechanical engineering include but NOT limited to Solid Mechanics, Fluid Mechanics, Thermomechanics, Vibrations, Noise, Machine Design, CAD, Manufacturing Engineering, Automotive Engineering, Material Processing, and others. The School has been receiving additional fundings in developing programs of undergraduate and graduate on Mechancial Engineering, Mechanics, Industrial Engineering, and other areas.
One Ph.D. student position is available at the Centre for Innovative Structures and Materials RMIT, University. The research topic is about computational mechnaics and structural topology optimisation. It is expected to enroll in the end of this Auguest. More details please contact with e89817 [at] rmit.edu.au
The following link is a website for comparing of the universities, insititutes all over the world. Pretty interesting~~

Stop Trying To Get Tenure and Start Trying To Enjoy Yourself
One of my junior colleagues forwarded the above article to me, and I read with interest. I think it could also resonate the interest of many people here in iMechanica. I welcome your comments, especially from our been-there done-that tenured colleagues.
On May 29th, Prof. Zhigang Suo, a member of the US National Academy of Engineering and professor of Mechanics and Materials at Harvard University, made two lectures for teachers and students in Tongji University, titled “from study in Harvard to be elected to the US National Academy of Engineering” and “Mechanics of Soft Active Materials”.
I found very interesting web site (at least for me). That is World Universities’ ranking on the Web (WR).
