NOTES:
Four Open Faculty PositionS
School of Aeronautics and Astronautics
The School of Aeronautics and Astronautics at Purdue
University invites outstanding individuals to apply for four open faculty
positions at all ranks. Though exceptional candidates in all areas
of aerospace engineering are welcome to apply, those with interest and
expertise in the following areas are especially sought:
·
Astrodynamics
and Space Applications: spacecraft
platform systems, including attitude determination and controls, autonomous
systems, and sensors, as well as modeling, simulation, and visualization (MSV)
methods for these areas, with a particular emphasis on innovative research
supporting the next generation of mission concepts in planetary science and
Earth remote sensing.
·
Dynamics and
Control: dynamics, systems and
control with aerospace applications, including autonomous and semi-autonomous
aerospace vehicles.
·
Structures and
Materials: aeroelasticity,
structural dynamic, integrated nondestructive evaluation and prognostics for
structural response, structural and material technologies for high
Mach number aerospace vehicles, and manufacturing of composite materials
and structures.
Applicants should have a Ph.D. or equivalent doctoral
level degree in aerospace engineering or a closely related field. The
successful candidate will have a distinguished academic record with exceptional
potential to develop world-class teaching and research programs. Also,
the successful candidate will advise and mentor undergraduate and graduate
students in research and other academic activities, will teach undergraduate
and graduate courses, will perform service to the school and the university,
and will contribute to and thrive in an inclusive climate working with diverse
groups of students, faculty, students, and staff.
The School of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AAE) at
Purdue University has experienced significant growth in the past decade.
AAE faculty members teach and conduct research in aerodynamics, aerospace
systems, astrodynamics and space applications, dynamics and control,
propulsion, and structures and materials and have significant interdisciplinary
efforts across the campus and with other academic institutions and industrial
partners. The College of Engineering at Purdue is currently undergoing
extensive growth with over one hundred faculty-position openings being
projected over the next five years. Details about the School of
Aeronautics and Astronautics, its current faculty, and research may be found at
https://engineering.purdue.edu/AAE.
To
be considered for one of the four tenured/tenure-track positions at the
assistant, associate, or full professor ranks, please submit a curriculum
vitae, a statement on teaching and research plans, and the names and addresses
of at least three references to the College of
Engineering Faculty Hiring website,
https://engineering.purdue.edu/Engr/AboutUs/Employment/,
and indicate an interest in AAE. For information/questions regarding
applications, please contact Marion Ragland, Faculty Recruitment Coordinator,
College of Engineering, at ragland@purdue.edu. Review of applications
will begin on November 1, 2014 and will continue until all positions are
filled. A background check will be required for employment in this
position.
Purdue’s main campus is located in West Lafayette,
Indiana – a welcoming and diverse community with a wide variety of cultural
activities and events, industries, and excellent schools for K-12. Purdue
and the College of Engineering have a Concierge Program to assist new faculty members and
their partners on dual career needs and to facilitate their relocation.
