FACULTY POSITIONS Department of Materials Science & Engineering The Department of Materials Science & Engineering at the University of Washington, Seattle, seeks outstanding candidates for two professorships. Each position will be at the rank of full professor with tenure and brings the strong possibility of simultaneous appointment as either the Kyocera Chair (endowed position) or the Campbell Professor (endowed position) to begin in the 2010 Autumn Quarter.
KYOCERA CHAIR PROFESSOR AND CAMPBELL ENDOWED PROFESSOR The holders of these tenured professorships should be eminent scholars and well-known leaders in the field of materials science and engineering with expertise on broadly defined ceramics and/or ceramic-based materials and systems. Areas of particular interest include, but are not limited to, molecularly engineered, and/or chemically or biologically processed nano- and micro-structured ceramics or ceramic-based hybrids/composites for novel applications in structural, electronic, photonic, magnetic, biomedical, and/or energy-related fields. The applicants should have an outstanding record of research and scholarship in their specialized fields, evidenced by publications, external funding supports, and leadership role in collaborative research projects across multiple disciplines in their current institutions. Preference will be given to candidates who have demonstrated ability to leverage and bring the research activities in their current institutions to a high level of national and international excellence. Industrial experience will be considered as an asset. Successful candidates are expected to work with other faculty within the department to develop cutting-edge collaborative research projects, secure extramural funding, teach courses at both the undergraduate and graduate levels, and play active roles in the centers and institutes of the department and college interests, including the Institute of Molecular Engineering and Sciences, the “NSF-STC” on Materials and Devices for Information Technology, the “NSF-MRSEC” on Genetically Engineered Materials Science and Engineering, and the Institute of Advanced Materials and Technology. The Campbell Professor will also play an active role in establishing and strengthening ties between UW and industries/national laboratories through his/her own research activities. A doctoral degree in materials science and engineering or a closely related field is required.
