DEPARTMENT: College of Engineering
POSITION: Multiple Positions - Flexible and Efficient Spectrum Usage
LINK: https://engineering.purdue.edu/Engr/InfoFor/Employment
NOTES:
Purdue University’s College of
Engineering has identified four winning research
teams for faculty hiring during the coming year. These preeminent teams,
chosen from among 32 that competed this fall, were selected because their work
has the potential for dramatic impact and international preeminence. New
faculty will be hired to strengthen the teams as part of the strategic growth plan, which will add as many as
107 faculty members over five years. In addition to the team hiring, other
hires will be related to strengthening disciplines and taking advantage of
opportunities to enhance quality and diversity. The strategic growth plan
is part of Big Moves, a range of university-wide initiatives designed to
broaden Purdue's global impact and enhance educational opportunities for its
students.
One of the four teams is
engaged in research and education related to the flexible and efficient usage
of spectrum. This team will focus on techniques for more efficient use of
the increasingly congested radio spectrum for communications in commercial,
military and emergency services applications. The College of Engineering
is accepting applications for two tenured
or tenure-track faculty (at any level) in this area. These new faculty
members will build on strengths and leverage existing research capabilities
existing at Purdue.
Candidates must hold a Ph.D. degree in
Engineering, Science or a related field. They should have a distinguished
academic record, exceptional potential for world-class research, and a
commitment to teach in both undergraduate and graduate programs. Specific
research fields of interest for these positions include, but are not limited
to, spectrally efficient techniques for modulation and demodulation, cognitive
radio, spectrum sensing, applications of game theory to communications,
spectrum policy, theoretical and experimental software radio, economic analysis
of wireless systems, auction theory applied to communication systems, and
techniques related to shared spectrum systems. The primary faculty
appointment will be in a school of the College of Engineering and will depend
on the candidate’s qualifications. The successful candidate will teach
undergraduate and graduate courses in topics related to spectrum, policy, and
communications, conduct research in their field of expertise, publish and
present research findings, participate in professional activities, and advise
graduate student research.
Submit
your application online at: https://engineering.purdue.edu/Engr/InfoFor/Employment . 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 three or more references. For questions regarding the application
process, please contact Marion Ragland (ragland@purdue.edu).
Screening of applications will begin January 1, 2014 and will continue until
the positions are filled. A background check will be required for employment in
this position.
