Kansas State University - Engineering - Full Professor

INSTITUTION: Kansas State University DEPARTMENT: Engineering POSITION: Full Professor LINK: NOTES: K-State is beginning a search for a senior faculty member with expertise in biomedical/health systems engineering. The ad ( http://www.engg.ksu.edu/jobs ) indicates that we are looking for someone who is a research leader and collaborator. Obviously, I'm pulling for this new faculty member to be an IE so I would appreciate if you would share this ad with your faculty. The candidate must be a recognized leader in a technical area related to human or animal health care and should have demonstrated commitment to both research and teaching. She or he should have an earned doctorate or equivalent in engineering, science, or a health-related field and offer credentials to support appointment as a Full Professor. Applicants should submit the following, in PDF format, to biomedSearch@engg.ksu.edu: a cover letter, curriculum vitae, a statement of research vision, a statement of teaching interests and philosophy, contact information for three references, and copies of representative publications. Application review will begin January 30, 2012 and will continue until the position is filled. Given the anticipated arrival of the National Bio and Agro-Defense Facility (NBAF) in Manhattan and ongoing research at the KSU Biosecurity Research Institute (BRI), significant potential also exists for interdisciplinary work related to disease and its epidemiological spread.
