NOTES:
Tenure-Track Faculty Position in Intelligent
Infrastructure
Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering
University of California, Irvine
The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at
the University of California, Irvine invites applications for a tenure-track
faculty position in Intelligent Infrastructure at the Assistant Professor
level. The Department is open to applicants with a focus in any area of civil
infrastructure (e.g., water, transportation, structures), but is particularly interested
in applicants whose work involves novel sensing, monitoring and control systems
and the utilization of these systems for infrastructure management. The
Department currently has 22 full-time faculty members and offers B.S., M.S. and
Ph.D. degrees in both Civil Engineering and Environmental Engineering. The
Irvine campus affords excellent opportunity for interdisciplinary
collaboration.
A prominent goal of the strategic growth of the Department
of Civil and Environmental Engineering at UC Irvine is to build a bridge over
the research and educational gaps between our understanding of individual
infrastructure systems (water, sewer, energy, transportation, buildings and
other structures) and that of networks of integrated urban infrastructure
systems including environmental, technological, behavioral and policy
dimensions which involve a far higher degree of complexity. The rapid evolution
of “smart cities” implies increasingly monitored, networked and automated urban
infrastructure that must be responsive to societal and environmental needs but
in fact is not well understood and/or predictable.
Candidates should possess a Ph.D. degree in civil
engineering, environmental engineering, or closely related fields at the time
of appointment, and be qualified to teach undergraduate and graduate
engineering courses. Candidates must have a superior record of scholarship and
demonstrate a strong potential to develop an externally funded research group.
To promote interdisciplinary research, the Department seeks candidates capable
of, and experienced with, interdisciplinary collaboration in fields such as
physical, social, and information sciences and other engineering disciplines.
Exceptionally promising candidates will be considered for a Samueli Faculty
Career Development Professorship.
To apply, candidates should submit a curriculum vitae, a
statement of particular qualifications including teaching and research
interests, and names and addresses of at least four references using the UC
Irvine on-line application system: https://recruit.ap.uci.edu/apply/JPF02203 . Review of applications
will begin in December 2013. To ensure full consideration, applications should
be received by February 19, 2014. The search will continue until the position
is filled.
