The University of Texas at Austin Department of Civil, Architectural and Environmental Engineering (CAEE) invites applications for a tenure-track assistant professor position in geotechnical engineering. All exceptional candidates with a geotechnical engineering background that support the CAEE strategic vision of developing innovative solutions to the interconnected problems of water, energy, and the growth of cities will be considered. However, candidates with a focus on computational geotechnics are particularly encouraged to apply. This includes applicants with expertise in computational simulations of geotechnical systems using advanced numerical techniques (e.g., finite element/finite difference methods, mesh-free methods, discrete element methods) and/or innovative constitutive models. The successful candidate will be expected to teach undergraduate and graduate courses in geotechnical engineering, develop a consistent sponsored research program, supervise graduate students, collaborate with other faculty, and be involved in service to the university and the profession.
