The Edmund A. Hajim School of Engineering and Applied Sciences at the University of Rochester invites applications for a joint tenured/tenure-track faculty position in the Departments of Mechanical Engineering (ME) and Biomedical Engineering (BME). Applicants at the assistant professor level are preferred, but exceptional candidates at all ranks will be considered.
Applicants with research interests in biosolid or biofluid mechanics that complement existing strengths at the University of Rochester in areas such as cell and tissue mechanics, cardiovascular mechanics, musculoskeletal mechanics, medical imaging (including biomedical ultrasound), or materials are particularly encouraged to apply.
The successful candidate is expected to have exceptional potential to establish a strong interdisciplinary research program and to teach innovative graduate and undergraduate courses for both the Mechanical and Biomedical Engineering Departments.
The Hajim School of Engineering and Applied Sciences is a short walk from the University of Rochester Medical Center, one of the original recipients of an NIH award ($40M) to establish a Clinical and Translational Science Institute. Thus, we offer an exceptionally rich environment for both clinical and basic science collaboration.
