TENURE-TRACK POSITIONS Institute for Micromanufacturing Louisiana Tech University
Applications and nominations are invited for a tenure-track faculty position in fluid dynamics, to begin in 1999. A PhD degree is required. Responsibilities include active participation in Harvard's undergraduate degree program in engineering as well as in research and teaching at the graduate level. Harvard has a long tradition in Applied Mechanics and Mechanical Engineering, and allied disciplines of Biomedical Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Applied Physics, and Earth and Planetary Sciences. We seek a creative, forward-looking individual with broad, interdisciplinary research interests spanning experimental, computational, and/or theoretical aspects of fluid dynamics. Examples of areas of interest include fluid transport processes, reactive flows, multiphase flows, materials processing, biomedical fluids, and complex fluids. Applicants should submit, before February 15, 1999, a curriculum vitae, a statement of research and teaching interests, and the names, addresses (including e-mail), and telephone numbers of three references to:
Louisiana Tech University is seeking qualified applicants for three tenure-track positions at the Institute for Micromanufacturing (IfM) with joint appointments in the College of Engineering and Science. Candidates should have expertise in microfabricatjon techniques, with preferred emphasis in the development of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) or microoptoelectromechanical systems (MOEMS). Previous fab experience is desirable, either through industrial work or hands-on graduate studies. Familiarity with standard IC/MEMS processing methods is expected, such as UV lithography, thin film deposition and etching, and bulk and surface micromachining. The IfM is a unique research institute, with large cleanroom facilities and a wide array of high-aspect-ratio micromachining tools, including x-ray lithography (LJGA). Successful candidates would join an elite group of researchers, developing novel chemical, biological, and environmental microsystems. Prior to their hire, applicants must have received a PhD degree in materials science, electrical engineering, physics, or a closelyrelated field. Selected candidates will be expected to develop an innovative, externally-funded research program, while teaching in a related program in the College of Engineering and Science. These positions include a reduced teaching load, but candidates should demonstrate a commitment to high-quality teaching. Applicants must be able to supervise PhD students in fundamental research projects, and demonstrate excellent written and oral communication skills. Interested candidates should send curriculum vitae with a onepage statement of professional interests and goals to James L. Maxwell, Director, Institute for Micromanufacturing, 911 Hergot Avenue, Louisiana Tech University, Ruston, LA 71272; e-mail: [email protected]. Review of applications will begin November 1,1998 and will continue until all positions are fil
