Information and Computing Technologies
The Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at the University at Buffalo, State University of New York seeks an outstanding individual in the information and computing technologies area for a tenure-track position at the Assistant Professor level. Candidates working at the frontiers of uncertainty modeling and representation, grid, cloud, and cluster computing, multi-scale modeling and simulation, new simulation and visualization methodologies appropriate for emerging peta and exa scale architectures, data and information-driven discovery, or emerging modalities for human-computer interactions are encouraged to apply. The broad concept of enabling and understanding core discovery processes through novel information and computational methods are of particular interest. Specfic areas of interest include, fluid/thermal sciences, mechanics, materials science, bioengineering, design/optimization, and dynamics/control.
The successful candidate will be expected to develop an independent, externally-funded, internationally-recognized research program, teach graduate- and undergraduate-level courses, develop new specialized courses, supervise graduate research and contribute to departmental affairs. Information on the Department can be found at http://www.mae.buffalo.edu.
The School of Engineering and Applied Sciences at Buffalo is the largest and most comprehensive of the SUNY engineering schools. The Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering has 26 full-time faculty. Over the past five years, we have conferred on average, 180 BS, 60 MS and 10 Ph.D. degrees a year.
Applicants must have an earned doctorate in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering or in a relevant engineering or science discipline with a dissertation focused on the aforementioned areas. Applicants must submit an on-line application through the University at Buffalo Human Resources webpage at http://hr.buffalo.edu; select “Find Jobs at UB”, select “Search & Apply for Jobs”. This position is posting number 006217. Applicants must submit a Cover Letter, detailed Curriculum Vita, Contact Information for References, Research Statement, and Teaching Statement. Optional attachments are a maximum of three separate publications. Applications will be accepted until September 15, 2009.
Women and other under-represented minorities are especially encouraged to apply. The University at Buffalo is an Equal Opportunity and Affirmative Action Employer
