The department has a distinct profile in research related to urban infrastructure systems, environmental systems and sustainability, coastal resilience and marine hydrodynamics.

The ideal candidate will have a demonstrated commitment to research, teaching and mentorship at the undergraduate and graduate levels, and a background that complements one of the following areas:

1. Experimental and/or numerical marine hydrodynamics with expertise in wave-structure interactions, ship hydrodynamics, underwater vehicles, wave and tidal energy conversion, or supercavitating systems.
2. Experimental and/or computational approaches related to fate, transport, monitoring and treatment of emerging pollutants and their impact on environmental systems and climate change.

Applicants should have earned a Ph.D. The position is anticipated to be filled at the rank of Assistant Professor, but candidates with a track record of success in scholarship, externally funded research, teaching and mentoring will be given consideration at the associate or full professor rank. Successful applicants will join a cadre of committed faculty (16 tenured and tenure track, 5 research and 4 teaching) who are engaged in high-impact funded research programs at a level of ~$6M per year. CEOE is home to the Davidson Laboratory and Center for Environmental Systems. Successful applicants will have the potential to develop a strong externally funded research program in their discipline and through interdisciplinary and collaborative efforts.
