PURDUE UNIVERSITY
Purdue University has identified Next Generation
Manufacturing as a major thrust for cross-disciplinary research and
education. We are currently accepting
applications to fill multiple positions for tenure-track and tenured positions
at the Assistant/Associate/Full Professor levels.
The ability to rapidly deliver customized, cost-efficient
products and services with predictable performance is clearly the next frontier
in manufacturing. Purdue’s Next Generation Manufacturing initiative aims to
combine latest advances in tailored materials and novel manufacturing
processes; multi-scale modeling of products, services and systems; and,
on-demand, customer-driven product and supply-chain design enabled by
ubiquitous cyberinfrastructure to sustainably deliver personalized products,
anywhere, anytime, with the efficiency of mass production. This effort builds on
Purdue’s strengths and leverages capabilities in these areas in the Colleges of
Engineering, Science, and Technology, and the Krannert School of Management, as
well as Discovery Park.
We invite applications from candidates with research and
teaching interests aligning with this initiative. Successful candidates will
join a strong manufacturing faculty group on campus, and will have a unique
opportunity to help shape Purdue’s vision and research/education agenda in
manufacturing. Candidates must hold a Ph.D. or equivalent degree in a field of
Engineering, Management, Science, Technology or areas related to manufacturing.
They should have a distinguished academic record, exceptional potential for
world-class research, and a commitment to teaching and collaborative
interdisciplinary activities. Specific research fields of interest in the next
generation manufacturing cluster include, but are not limited to, the
following: i) cyber-enabled experimentation; ii) optimization and
design-on-the-fly; iii) multi-scale predictive modeling; iv) scaling principles
for novel materials and processes; v) personalization of products and services;
and vi) social manufacturing.
The successful candidates will teach undergraduate and
graduate courses in topics related to disciplines involved, conduct research in
their field of expertise, publish and present research findings, participate in
professional activities, and advise graduate student research. The primary
faculty appointment will be in the Colleges of Engineering, Science, or
Technology, or the Krannert School of Management, and will depend on the
candidate’s qualifications; cross-department/school/college appointments are
anticipated.
Submit application at: https://engineering.purdue.edu/Engr/AboutUs/Employment/Applications.
The application should include a cover letter, a complete and detailed vitae,
and statements of research and teaching interests. Also, please include names,
addresses, telephone numbers, and e-mail addresses for four or more references.
For questions regarding the application process, please contact Marion Ragland
(ragland@purdue.edu). Screening of
applications will begin October 1, 2013 and will continue until the positions
are filled. A background check will be required for employment in this
position.
Purdue University is an Equal Opportunity/Equal
Access/Affirmative Action Employer
fully committed to achieving a diverse work force.
