The
Department of Mechanical, Aerospace and Biomedical Engineering (MABE) at The
University of Tennessee, Knoxville is seeking an exceptionally qualified
candidate for a full-time appointment at the assistant professor level in
mechanical engineering. All outstanding candidates with a strong background in
fundamental science and engineering relevant to mechanical engineering will be
considered. Areas of particular interest include, but are not limited to,
additive manufacturing, computer-aided engineering (CAE), computer-aided design
(CAD), robotics and process control strategies for additive manufacturing. More
information regarding the Department may be found at http://www.engr.utk.edu/mabe/.
The
successful candidate will have a doctorate in engineering or a related field
and show the potential to provide international leadership in research and
contribute to education and diversity at the University. Extensive
opportunities exist to work with the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National
Laboratory (http://www.ornl.gov),
located a short distance from UTK. ORNL’s Manufacturing Demonstration Facility
(http://www.ornl.gov/sci/manufacturing/mdf.shtml)
is operating at the cutting edge of emerging additive
manufacturing technologies. The MDF provides physical and virtual tools from
design to evaluation for rapidly prototyping new technologies and optimizing
essential manufacturing processes. The successful candidate will have extensive
opportunities to collaborate with MDF researchers. Candidates with passion for
interdisciplinary research at the crossroads of design, process, materials and
manufacturing are ideal. The College of Engineering is undergoing a period of
substantial growth in both physical infrastructure and research expenditures as
