The University at Buffalo (SUNY) seeks a tenure-track assistant professor in the broad area of multiscale modeling of engineered nanoscale materials, structures, or devices. Appointment at higher rank is possible in exceptional cases. Example research areas of interest include, but are not limited to, modeling and simulation of atomistic to continuum scale failure mechanics, micro and nano fluidics, characterization and simulation of nanoscale heat and mass transport processes, use of nanoscale models in framing constitutive theories, modeling energy transport in materials and devices for thermoelectric and photovoltaic applications, nanocomposite structures, and molecular dynamics simulations.
This position is associated with the UB2020 Strategic Strength in Integrated Nanostructured Systems, one of eight areas of scholarly activity identified for strategic investment at UB.
The home department of the successful candidate will be determined by mutual agreement at the time of hiring, and could be Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, Chemical and Biological Engineering, or Electrical Engineering.
