    Job Title:        FACULTY POSITIONS

    Date Posted: 10/11/2004

    Department: CIVIL ENGINEERING

     

    Summary:      The College of Engineering at the University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP) is seeking faculty members at all ranks that can contribute to and help create a number of cross-cutting research areas. Faculty candidates are encouraged to apply for positions in the areas noted below and in other cross-cutting disciplines. Faculty members can represent any of the traditional engineering and computer science areas, even if those areas are not currently represented at UTEP. Primary areas are noted below. These are new positions due to growth of our academic and research programs. UTEP is a Carnegie doctoral-intensive University with an enrollment of 19,000 students. Our campus, situated where the Rocky Mountains meet the Rio Grande, echoes the beauty of the surrounding high desert. El Paso is a highly livable, bi-cultural community of 700,000 people that offers affordable homes and is a major meeting point for the United States and Latin America. QUALIFICATIONS REQUIRED: Applicants should have a Ph.D. in Engineering or a related field, P.E.preferred.

     

    •  Infrastructure: Special emphasis will be placed on candidates with expertise and experience in geotechnical engineering, structural engineering and urban transportation planning. Other specialties that contribute to surface and subsurface infrastructure are of interest, as well. Power systems, traffic monitoring and control, and intelligent transportation systems, represent additional areas of interest.

     

    •  Environmental Health and Engineering: El Paso is located in an ideal area to study environmental issues. The U.S. Mexico border region has unique environmental and health concerns that are complex because of multiple governmental jurisdictions and diverse economic groupings. Candidates are especially sought with expertise in understanding human risk analysis, arid-region hydrology; contaminant properties and transport (air and water); environmental policy issues; environmental biological applications; groundwater resources; and desalination.

     

    •  Related Areas: Other focal areas include bioengineering, nano- and microtechnologies, and high assurance systems. Candidates from these and other evolving cross-cutting areas such as advanced manufacturing; high performance computing; safety and projectile impact; and alternative energy sources will be considered if they contribute to one of the areas identified above.

     

    To Apply: (Incomplete Application Packets will not be considered)             Please send a curriculum vitae, a list of publications, a statement of teaching and research interests, and contact information for at least four professional references to Faculty Recruiting Committee, UTEP, College of Engineering, El Paso, TX, 79968-0517. Information about the department and El Paso is available at http://civil.utep.edu. Send e-mail applications and inquiries to facultyrecruiting@utep.edu. Review of applications will begin immediately.
