The primary hiring focus is the research area of materials for health, along with a secondary focus on functional materials.  Exceptional applicants in other areas of materials science and engineering may also be considered.  Additional descriptions of these focus areas and Penn Engineering’s strategic plan are available at http://www.mse.seas.upenn.edu/faculty-staff/
