The Department of Mechanical Engineering (www.me.udel.edu) at the University of Delaware (UD) invites
nominations and applications for a tenure-track faculty position at the Assistant Professor level. We are seeking
ambitious, creative, and innovative individuals in the area of mechanics of materials who have demonstrated
excellence in research, interdisciplinary spirit and vision and the drive to become leaders in their field while
maintaining high-quality teaching and mentoring activity. Exceptional candidates in other areas of interest to the
department will also be considered.
The department consists of 21 full-time faculty members actively engaged in the core research areas of
biomechanics, clean energy and environment, composite and advanced materials, nanotechnology, and robotics and
controls; annual research expenditures are $9.7 M. In addition to hosting the Center for Fuel Cell Research and the
Center for Biomechanical Engineering Research, we have strong ties to several strategic campus-wide institutions
such as the Center for Composite Materials, the Center for Carbon-free Power Integration, the Delaware
Biotechnology Institute, the Delaware Environmental Institute, the Delaware Rehabilitation Institute, the Institute for
Energy Conversion, and the UD Energy Institute. The undergraduate program is in high demand (over 500 students
enrolled) and places a strong emphasis on research and real-world design.
The University of Delaware combines a rich historic legacy in engineering (www.engr.udel.edu/) with a commitment to
undergraduate education and the creation of new impactful knowledge. With external funding exceeding $200 million,
the University ranks among the top 100 universities in federal R&D support for science and engineering. Supported
by state-of-the-art facilities, research is conducted across all seven colleges and numerous interdisciplinary institutes
and centers. The main campus in Newark, Delaware, provides the amenities of a vibrant college town with convenient
access to the major cities of the East Coast. The newly erected 194,000-squarefoot Interdisciplinary Science and
Engineering Laboratory greatly expands opportunities and resources for interdisciplinary research and education, and
the recently acquired 272-acre STAR (Science, Technology and Advanced Research) campus offers even more
opportunities for research, academic, and commercial development.
Applicants must hold a Ph.D. in mechanical engineering, or closely related field. To ensure full consideration,
applications should be received before December 1, 2014. However, the search will continue until the position is
filled. For additional information and application procedures about this position and all open other positions please
