Outstanding candidates in any engineering/computer science related field who could complement and enhance current departmental strengths will be considered. Candidates should have a Ph.D. in Engineering, Computer Science, or a closely related field, by Fall 2023 and the potential for excellence in teaching and research.

  • Wayne State University is committed to a policy of non-discrimination and equal opportunity in all of its operations, employment opportunities, educational programs, and related activities. This policy embraces all persons regardless of race, color, sex (including gender identity), national origin, religion, age, sexual orientation, familial status, marital status, height, weight, disability, or veteran status, and expressly forbids sexual harassment and discrimination in hiring, terms of employment, tenure, promotion, placement and discharge of employees, admission, training and treatment of students, extra-curricular activities, the use of University services, facilities, and the awarding of contracts. This policy also forbids retaliation and/or any form of harassment against an individual as a result of filing a complaint of discrimination or harassment, or participating in an investigation of a complaint of discrimination or harassment. It shall not preclude the University from implementing those affirmative action measures which are designed to achieve full equity for minorities and women.

    The University, as an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer, complies with all applicable federal and state laws regarding non-discrimination and affirmative action. In furtherance of this policy, the University is also committed to promoting institutional diversity to achieve full equity in all areas of University life and service and in those private clubs and accommodations that are used by University personnel.

Affirmative action procedures, measures, and programs may be used to the extent permitted by law to establish, monitor and implement affirmative action plans for all budgetary units and the University as a whole.

    The affirmative action plans and programs of the University may include the participation of minority- and female-owned businesses, institutions and firms in the awarding of contracts for consulting, management, construction projects, maintenance, and vendor services.
