PROFESSOR/ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR/ASSISTANT PROFESSOR DEPARTMENT OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING Ref: 201500192
RESEARCH POSITIONS The National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS) was established with the mission of improving the level of materials science and technology in Japan. NIMS invites applications for permanent researcher positions (age retirement system). We welcome female researchers, applicants from outside Japan, and applicants who have corporate experience. We are recruiting international researchers who can engage in the world-class, nextgeneration materials research.
Founded in 1911, the University of Hong Kong is committed to the highest international standards of excellence in teaching and research, and has been at the international forefront of academic scholarship for many years. The University has a comprehensive range of study programmes and research disciplines spread across 10 faculties and over 140 academic departments and institutes/centres. There are over 27,700 undergraduate and postgraduate students who are recruited globally, and more than 2,000 members of academic and academic-related staff coming from multi-cultural backgrounds, many of whom are internationally renowned. Applications are invited for a tenure-track appointment as Professor/Associate Professor/ Assistant Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, in additive manufacturing or 3D printing of near-net shapes of metallic structures, to commence as soon as possible, on a three-year fixed-term basis, with the possibility of renewal, or on tenure terms for exceptionally outstanding candidates for Associate Professor or above.
POSITIONS Field Specified: 6 Positions (one position/field) 1. Theory of condensed matter physics
The Department offers BEng, MSc, MPhil and PhD degree programmes. The Department also contributes to the Medical Engineering programme, which is jointly offered by the Faculties of Engineering and Medicine. The Department employs about 30 full-time faculty and has well-equipped teaching and research facilities and support. The Department has a vibrant research environment and promotes cutting-edge research in strategic areas including materials and nanotechnology, design and manufacturing, control and robotics, biomedical engineering, and energy and environment.
