FACULTY POSITIONS
MATERIALS SCIENCE and ENGINEERING
The School of Engineering and Applied Science at the University of Pennsylvania is growing its faculty by 33% over the next 5 years. As part of this initiative the Department of Materials Science and Engineering is engaged in an aggressive, multi-year hiring effort for multiple tenure-track positions at the assistant professor level. Exceptional applicants for tenured associate and full professor positions may also be considered.
Applicants from all materials-related research areas are invited to apply, especially those with expertise in (1) electronic and optical materials and (2) materials for health sciences. Additional descriptions of these research areas and the Penn Engineering's strategic plan are available (www.mse.seas.upenn.edu).
Applications must be submitted online and include a cover letter, a complete curriculum vitae, a short (5 page limit) research statement, a teaching statement and the names of three references (with contact information) who could provide letters of recommendation. The cover letter should describe the applicant's most significant scientific accomplishment as a graduate student and as a postdoc, the applicant's overall goals/vision for a research program at Penn, and the experience and qualifications that make the applicant particularly well-suited to achieve those goals.
Review of applications will begin immediately with a target deadline of November 1, 2016.
