In response to the national demand for more qualified engineers, the Dwight Look College has embarked on “25 by 25,” an ambitious enrollment growth initiative to more than double the college’s current enrollment to 25,000 engineering students by the year 2025 (http://engineering.tamu.edu/25by25). As part of this initiative, the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Texas A&M University invites applications for multiple tenure-track faculty positions.

Applicants must have an earned doctorate in Mechanical Engineering or an appropriate, closely related discipline. Candidates at all levels (Assistant, Associate, or Full Professor) will be considered. Specific areas are Robotics, Mechanobiology, Energy, and Advanced Manufacturing; candidates in other Mechanical Engineering areas may also be considered. Candidates with research interests cutting across multiple disciplines are particularly encouraged to apply.
Texas A&M, a land-grant, sea-grant, and space-grant institution, is one of the six largest universities in the United States and has more than 50,000 students. Today, the Dwight Look College of Engineering is one of the largest and best endowed in the nation, and it ranks among the top institutions in every significant national poll, including sixth for graduate programs and eighth for undergraduate programs among public institutions by U.S. News & World Report. The Dwight Look College has long enjoyed national leadership status in engineering education, and currently has more than 11,000 engineering students in 13 departments. Approximately 25 percent of the engineering students are graduate students.

The successful applicants will be expected to teach at the undergraduate and graduate levels, develop an independent, externally funded research program, participate in all aspects of the department’s mission, and serve the profession.
Strong written and verbal communication skills are required. Applicants should consult the department’s web page to review our academic and research programs (www.mengr.tamu.edu).  Applicants will be evaluated based on current credentials as well as potential for future impact.

Applicants should submit:  (1) cover letter, (2) curriculum vitae, (3) teaching and research statements, and (4) list of four references (including their postal addresses, telephone numbers and e-mail addresses) electronically via the departmental web site at:


If electronic submission is not possible, applicants may mail their application package to:
