[Appearing in the March Issue of MRS Bulletin]

The Department of Materials Science & Engineering at Drexel University (www.mse.drexel.edu) is seeking applications with a demonstrated record of excellence in materials science and materials engineering for a tenure-track faculty position. Primary consideration will be given to candidates with expertise in microstructural science. Specific areas of interest include but are not limited to computational analysis of microstructure and its evolution, microstructural effects in electrochemistry and materials applications to materials for energy, and the role of microstructure on degradation of materials during service due to environmental effects, irradiation, and other extreme conditions. Candidates with research interests synergistic with existing strengths of the department, including nanomaterials, materials in extreme environments, and advanced materials design and processing are encouraged to apply. Depending on the outcome of a separate concurrent search, the Anne Stevens Assistant Professorship may be available for successful female candidates.

Outstanding students, a dynamic and accomplished faculty, dedicated staff, and investments in infrastructure and key instrumentation within a fully staffed materials characterization facility in recent years have contributed to enhancing the quality of our academic programs and the visibility of our research profile, which was recently ranked #11 among all materials PhD programs in the US by the National Research Council. Applicants should submit a cover letter; a full curriculum vitae; statements of research and teaching plans; and the names and contact information of three references online at http://www.materials.drexel.edu/faculty/positions/.  Applications are accepted on a rolling basis.

Drexel University is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
