As part of a strategic initiative in the areas of Urban Coastal Sustainability and Environmental Health, Northeastern University seeks faculty candidates for tenured or tenure-track appointments at the assistant, associate, or full professor level in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering across the broad area of Engineering at the Human-Natural Interface: Environmental Bioprocess, Air/Atmospheric, and Coastal Systems. Interested candidates may be considered for joint appointments in other departments commensurate with their areas of expertise. We seek candidates in three areas, including candidates at the intersection of these areas:
- Environmental Biotechnology and Bioprocess Engineering
- Sustainability and Resilience of Urban Coastal Systems
- Air and Atmospheric Systems Engineering
Candidates should have an interdisciplinary background in a combination of civil/environmental engineering, atmospheric physics/chemistry, environmental health, climate modeling, computational sciences, machine learning, or similar fields.
The hiring efforts at Northeastern University seek to foster education and research across disciplinary boundaries. Through these hires we aim to create a signature effort at the interface of the built and biological environments that will foster adaptation of urban living to inevitable global change. The successful candidates are expected to demonstrate a proven ability to sustain a research program with emphasis on interdisciplinary and translational research, teach both undergraduate and graduate classes, and be active, recognized leaders in their disciplines. Candidates should be committed to fostering diverse and inclusive environments as well as to promoting experiential learning, which are central to a Northeastern University education.
