Northern Arizona University has made Bioengineering a centerpiece of its research mission, including recent, ongoing, and future commitments to a new Center for Bioengineering Innovation, a new Ph.D. Program in Bioengineering, as well as recent and continued recruitment of interdisciplinary faculty, postdoctoral associates, and graduate students with interests and expertise in the areas of biomaterials, biomechanics, and integrative and/or translational physiology. Here, we highlight current and future opportunities for tenure-track faculty positions and graduate training in this growing area of research at NAU.
New tenure track faculty and graduate students will conduct research in Flagstaff, Arizona, a town of endless opportunity. Less than two hours from the Grand Canyon, our main campus sits at the base of the San Francisco Peaks amid the world’s largest ponderosa pine forest. With ~288 days of sunshine per year and an average 100 inches of annual snowfall, Flagstaff offers a landscape and four-season climate unlike anything else in Arizona.
TENURE TRACK FACULTY POSITIONS—apply now for job numbers 602251 and 602250
New tenure-track positions in these fields will need to be filled by Fall 2016 (first review November 13, 2015).
· Open Rank in Integrative and/or Translational Physiology (job 602250)
· Assistant Professor in Exercise Science/Biomechanics (job 602251)
· Three new tenure track positions in the next three years associated with the new Center for Bioengineering Innovation in biomechanics, biomaterials, translational physiology, and/or integrative physiology.
GRADUATE TRAINING OPPORTUNITIES
The Presidential Fellowship Program will award a supplemental stipend—in addition to the regular graduate assistantship—of $8,000 per year for up to four years. This program also offers additional travel and research funds.
The proposed PhD in Bioengineering (Fall 2016) will offer applicants full funding and fantastic research opportunities; students will intern with industry partners to receive real-world job experience.
RESEARCH RESOURCES
· The newly established Center for Bioengineering Innovation builds NAU’s capacity to produce nationally recognized basic science discoveries in the area of bioengineering
· The Imaging and Histology Core Facility provides state-of-the-art imaging services
· The Colorado Plateau Stable Isotope Laboratory provides research analysis
· The new Science and Health building offers modern lab space
· The Keck award and other grants support large-scale research projects and facilitate the acquisition of new grants with help from the Office of the Vice President for Research and the Office of Grants and Contracts
· NAU also offers a machine shop, an animal care facility, and administrative support and oversight for grants and research projects
