Faculty Positions
Major Initiative in Science and Engineering of Nanoscale
Systems
The University of Pennsylvania
The School of Engineering and Applied Science at the University
of Pennsylvania announces three new faculty positions in the
area of Nanoscale Science and Engineering. Appointments may
be made in Electrical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Mechanical
Engineering and Applied Mechanics, or Materials Science and
Engineering. Applications are encouraged from all relevant
areas in engineering, physics, and chemistry. The school is
particularly interested in new and emerging areas of nanoscale
science and technology. Topics of interest include, but are
not limited to: nanofabrication including soft lithography
and/or self assembly, molecular electronics, biochemical transduction,
nanoscale MEMS, single molecule manipulation and behavior,
functional membranes, fibers, thin films, or coatings, spintronics,
quantum electronics, and nanoscale device architecture, interfacing
and assembly, and modeling of nanoscale phenomena.
Successful candidates are expected to have or to develop
internationally recognized research programs, excel in undergraduate
and graduate teaching, and take a leadership position in defining
this field. These appointments are part of a major initiative
that involves significant investment in nanofabrication and
nanoproperties. Successful candidates will benefit from interactions
with the new Center for Science and Engineering of Nanoscale
Systems at Penn and the Pennsylvania Nanotechnology Center,
in addition to the Laboratory for Research on the Structure
of Matter and the Institute for Medicine and Engineering.
Applications are being accepted at all ranks with compensation
to be commensurate with experience. Interested persons should
include a resume, list of publications, statement of teaching
and research interests, copies of a few representative publications,
and names and contact information for several references.
These should be sent to the chair of the search committee.
The University of Pennsylvania is an equal opportunity/affirmative
action employer. Applications by women and minorities are
encouraged.
