NOTES:
Assistant Professor
Civil, Environmental, and
Geodetic Engineering and
City & Regional
Planning, Austin E. Knowlton School of Architecture
College of Engineering
The Ohio State University
The Department of Civil, Environmental and Geodetic Engineering (CEGE) and
the City and Regional Planning (CRP) Section of the Knowlton School of
Architecture (KSA) at The Ohio State University invite applicants for a
full-time, tenure-track position at the Assistant Professor rank in smart urban systems. The position will
be filled jointly between the Department of CEGE and the KSA CRP Section, both
in the College of Engineering. The majority of the affiliation and the tenure
initiating unit will be in the Department of CEGE.
The position is focused on urban infrastructure systems, and in
particular on the use of automated sensing, big data, and computational
technologies to facilitate an improved evolution of infrastructure systems in
the built urban environment while accounting for the complex physical and
behavioral interactions they embody. Applications could be geared towards
planning, design, monitoring, management, or operations with a focus on mobility
and accessibility, public health, safety, or energy efficiency. This
position is partially funded by The Ohio State University's Discovery Themes
Initiative, a significant faculty hiring investment in key thematic areas in
which the university can build on its culture of academic collaboration to make
a global impact.
The successful candidate is expected to develop an active research
program, effectively teach undergraduate and graduate courses of interest to
both the Department of CEGE and the KSA CRP Section, supervise and mentor
graduate students and underrepresented groups, and be involved in service
within the university and in appropriate professional communities. The successful
candidate will have the opportunity to interact and collaborate with members of
multi-disciplinary centers and initiatives at The Ohio State University,
including the Center for Automotive Research, the Center for Urban and Regional
Analysis, the Center for Resilience, the Office of Energy
and Environment, the Center for Sustainability, and the campus-wide interdisciplinary
initiative expanding faculty expertise in data analytics. An earned doctoral degree in civil
engineering, environmental engineering, city and regional planning, or a
closely related field is required prior to the anticipated start date of August
2015.
