Associate/Full
Professor (Energy): The Department is seeking highly qualified
candidates with an earned doctorate in Chemical or Mechanical Engineering, or
closely related engineering field. The
successful candidate must have a record of externally funded research in an
area of energy and fuels; such as but not limited to, processing and
utilization of coal, biomass and alternative fuels. The candidate must also be strongly committed
to developing an outstanding research program that augments our current
strengths in hydrogen production and purification, coal to liquid fuel
synthesis and bioconversions, and transfer this knowledge to graduate and
undergraduate courses. The new Faculty will also be expected to foster interdisciplinary,
energy related research activities within the department, college and
University; including the research centers.
For consideration at the Full Professor position the candidate must also
have an established national and international research reputation and teaching
experience commensurate with rank.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills are required, and
previous industrial experience will be considered advantageous. Qualified applicants should submit a letter
of application, a current curriculum vitae, a statement of research plan,
teaching philosophy and interests, and three references (including phone number
and e-mail address) to: Energy Faculty Search Committee Chair, Mail Code 6603,
