About Binghamton University:
Binghamton University has built a reputation as a world-class institution that combines a broadly interdisciplinary, international education with one of the most vibrant research programs in the nation. Binghamton is proud to be ranked among the elite public universities in the nation for challenging our students academically, not financially. The result is a unique, best-of-both-worlds college experience.
Our academic culture rivals a first-rate private university - rigorous, collaborative and boldly innovative -- while our campus culture exemplifies the best kind of public university experience: richly diverse students, active social life and deep engagement with the community.
Our students, both undergraduate and graduate, work one-on-one with an exceptional faculty that includes innovative scientists and groundbreaking scholars. They take advantage of special academic opportunities like combined degrees, foreign language study groups and an unparalleled international education program.
Job Description:
The Department of Mechanical Engineering at the State University of New York at Binghamton invites applications for a tenure-track faculty position at the assistant professor level beginning Fall 2016 in the area of dynamic systems and control.
The Department of Mechanical Engineering has undergraduate and graduate enrollments of approximately 400 and 110 students, respectively. The department has 21 faculty members. The Department of Mechanical Engineering and the Watson School are dedicated to the goal of building a diverse and inclusive teaching, research, and working environment. We are particularly interested in candidates with a commitment to diversity and inclusiveness. Potential applicants from underrepresented minorities, women and persons with disabilities, are strongly encouraged to apply.
The successful candidates will have made research contributions in their respective areas, will be able to obtain competitive external research funding, and will have a potential for quality teaching at both the undergraduate and graduate levels in mechanical engineering.
The candidate's research should complement existing Department research areas, as well as University-wide smart-energy and biomedical related research. The University-wide initiatives are described here: http://www.binghamton.edu/tae/. Department research areas include sensors, acoustics and vibrations, MEMS, mechatronics, biomedical implant design optimization, energy control systems, electronic packaging, computational fluid mechanics, microfluidics, nanomaterials, and nanotechnology. The link to active research groups in the department is: https://www.binghamton.edu/me/research/
The candidate for this position will be expected to conduct research and to teach in one or more of the following areas: dynamic system modeling and simulation, mechatronics, system controls, vehicle dynamics, or advanced, non-linear dynamics.
Courses that have been offered by the department in these areas are:
Undergraduate: Statics (ME 273), Dynamics (ME 274), Mechanical Vibrations (ME 421), Control Systems in Mechanical Engineering (ME 424), Robotics (ME 428) and Senior Projects - Capstone (ME 493/494).
Graduate: Vehicle Dynamics and Control (ME 506), Advanced Dynamics (ME 523), Dynamics of MEMS and Microsystems (ME 521), Advanced Mechanical Vibrations (ME 524), Mechatronics (ME 527), Man-Machine Systems (ME 530), Analysis and Control of Mechanical Systems (ME 534), Random Vibrations (ME 627), and Nonlinear Systems Dynamics (ME 629).
In addition, the successful candidate is expected to develop courses in his or her area of interest.
Requirements:
Candidates must have a PhD in Mechanical Engineering or a closely related field.
