FACULTY VACANCY ANNOUNCEMENT

 

The Department of Civil Engineering at The City College of New York (CCNY) of The City University

Associate Professor in the area of environmental engineering. The start date for the position is Fall 2024,

We seek applicants who will join us in leading the efforts to evolve water and wastewater infrastructure to become resilient to climate change, sustainable, and socially and environmentally equitable; and in areas that are complementary to our on-going research efforts in domestic water/wastewater engineering. Specific areas of interest to the department include, but are not limited to innovations in: water resource recovery and valorization; technology applications for process control such as connected and automated instrumentation; modeling and system management approaches that leverage emerging data streams; biological wastewater treatment; biological process modeling and optimization; and water/wastewater treatment of PFAS, microplastics, endocrine disruptors, disinfection by-products and other emerging contaminants.

 

 

 

The successful applicant will be expected to develop an independent and externally-funded research

 

program; to effectively teach fundamental and applied undergraduate and advanced graduate courses in civil and environmental engineering; and to actively participate in departmental committees, student club activities, and professional services.

 

 

 

The Department of Civil Engineering has 18 full-time faculty members in four areas of concentration:

 

Environmental Engineering, Structural Engineering and Mechanics, Transportation, and Water Resource

 

Engineering. Our faculty engage in a wide range of research efforts with international, national, regional,

 

and local agencies, as well as private entities to address both complex infrastructure demands and

 

challenges locally and globally. Our faculty also participate in interdisciplinary research activities and

 

educational programs within and outside CCNY. Our faculty lead several interdisciplinary programs

 

including the CREST Institute and the Center for Water Resources and Environmental Research, the

 

CUNY Institute for Urban Systems, the Institute for Municipal Waste Research, the Institute for

 

Transportation Systems, the NOAA Center for Earth Systems Sciences and Remote Sensing

 

Technologies, and the University Transportation Research Center.

 

 

 

CUNY is the largest urban public university system in the United States serving more than 400,000

 

students at 23 colleges in New York City. As its flagship college located in Manhattan, CCNY

 

(https://www.ccny.cuny.edu) is a minority serving institution, and the only public institution in New York

 

City offering bachelors, masters and doctoral degrees in Civil Engineering. Consistent with the college's

 

mission of "access and excellence", the Department of Civil Engineering is committed to rigorous

 

training of students from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds to become future leaders in NYC’s

 

agencies, firms and professional organizations. The department plays an important role in ensuring that
