Description
The Department of Aerospace Engineering and Engineering Mechanics at The University of Texas at Austin has two tenured or tenure-track faculty positions beginning Fall 2024 in the area of Computational Engineering. This search is conducted jointly with the Oden Institute for Computational Engineering and Sciences. We are interested in all areas of computational engineering, with particular emphasis on the broad areas of computational mechanics, numerical methods for partial differential equations, and high-performance computing. The first position is a 100% appointment in the Department of Aerospace Engineering and Engineering Mechanics with the option of an affiliation with the Oden Institute for Computational Engineering and Sciences. The second position is a joint position that will have 50% teaching duties in the Department of Aerospace Engineering and Engineering Mechanics and 50% in the Oden Institute's Computational Science, Engineering and Mathematics graduate program. Both positions are open to applicants at all ranks: assistant, associate, and full professor, including the possibility of appointment as a chaired professor for candidates with exceptional qualifications.
The Department's values include scholarship, impact, integrity, diversity, collaboration, and inclusivity. To these ends, we are committed to supporting the success of all members of our community: students, staff, and faculty. A successful candidate can expect to benefit from and contribute to those efforts.
