  • Biomechanics Faculty Opening - University of Waterloo

    Department of Kinesiology
    Faculty of Applied Health Sciences
    University of Waterloo
    Waterloo, ON, Canada

    Applications are being accepted for a tenure-track position at the
    Assistant Professor level in the field of musculoskeletal biomechanics.
    Candidates should have demonstrated research and teaching experience in
    biomechanics of human motion and tissue injury. The successful candidate
    will have expertise in one or more of the following areas: muscle
    mechanics, joint mechanics, movement/performance optimization,
    determination of internal muscle and tissue forces, injury mechanisms, and
    control of movement. The work will span basic to applied research with
    application to injury prevention. The candidate is expected to present
    both a clear path for independent research and a strong desire to work
    within a well equipped research team that includes a Canada Research Chair
    in Spine Biomechanics and Injury Prevention.

    The Department of Kinesiology is an inter-disciplinary department with
    expertise spanning the social to biological study of human movement, and
    is the only undergraduate program in Ergonomics in Canada. The mission of
    the department is to discover and explain mechanisms and principles of
    human movement and to apply this knowledge to the prevention of illness
    and injury together with strategies which optimize the health and physical
    performance of individuals in work and leisure activities. The department
    offers B.Sc., M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in Kinesiology.
