We are seeking dynamic individuals eager to advance our strongly trans-disciplinary environment for scholarship and learning centered on engineering design and innovation as it applies across disciplinary boundaries.

Preference will be given to applicants with broad, multidisciplinary expertise at the assistant or associate professor level, although exceptional candidates at all levels will be considered. All applicants must have a Ph.D. in an area that resonates with CTI’s vision and strengths. Of particular interest are candidates with a Ph.D. in Civil Engineering, Computer Science, Software Engineering, Computer Science Education, Electrical Engineering, Engineering Design, Engineering Education, or a related discipline. Also required, commensurate with desired rank, is a record and evidence of effective and innovative teaching, research, and other scholarly activities appropriate to CTI’s mission. Candidates should look forward to engaging undergraduate and graduate students in a hands-on educational setting with intensive team-based projects. Evidence of connection to practice/industry is important. We will consider high quality candidates in all fields appropriate for engineering or engineering technology within CTI, but preference will be given to the following disciplinary areas:

- Civil Engineering: Applications are invited from candidates who possess a broad skill set within all areas of civil engineering. Applicants must have an interest in development of innovative, highly creative and rigorous learning models that emphasize team-based projects, written, visual and oral communication, social and economic perspectives of design, and all other components of modern civil engineering
professional practice.
