Assistant or Associate Professor in Biomedical Engineering, University of Vermont (Burlington, VT, USA)
The Department of Electrical and Biomedical Engineering at the University of Vermont (UVM) invites applications for two tenure-track hires in Biomedical Engineering. Applicants will be considered at both the Assistant and Associate Professor rank. The department seeks to grow in multiple research areas including human motion capture, wearable biosensing, biotransport, biomaterials, tissue engineering, bioimaging, and/or digital health.
Successful candidates will be joining UVM following a period of unprecedented growth that has led to the successful completion of world-class STEM facilities, the development of an ABET accredited BS degree, the expansion of MS and PhD degrees in BME, and the creation of the entrepreneurship-focused Center for Biomedical Innovation. Biomedical Engineering is among the fastest growing and largest undergraduate majors at UVM. The Biomedical Engineering Program at UVM leverages strong curricular and research ties with the University’s Larner College of Medicine and the University of Vermont Medical Center (a regional referral center providing advanced care for more than 1 million patients), which are all located in very close proximity on the same campus. The BME Program values interdisciplinary research and innovative approaches to engineering education, as illustrated by a new undergraduate curriculum focused on design thinking and active learning. The BME major enjoys high student enrollment and a strong culture of undergraduate research. External research funding has expanded rapidly in recent years, fueled by shared resources like the Vermont Advanced Computing Core and strong connections with the Larner College of Medicine. The scientific and academic environments in the Department of Electrical and Biomedical Engineering, the College of Engineering and Mathematical Sciences, and throughout the UVM community are dynamic, highly collaborative, and multi-disciplinary.
The University of Vermont, established in 1791, is a comprehensive research university with a current enrollment of 12,000+ undergraduate, graduate, and medical students. The University is located in Burlington, Vermont, and enjoys a panoramic setting on the shores of Lake Champlain, between the Green Mountains of Vermont and the Adirondack Mountains of New York. Burlington, a city of 43,000 in a metropolitan area of 214,000, is often rated as one of the best small cities in America. Widely known for its music and food scene as well as its outdoor and adventure lifestyle (Outside Magazine and National Geographic), Burlington has also been hailed as a top technology hub (Forbes) and a city of the future (Business Insider). Burlington’s vibrant entrepreneurial and high-technology ecosystem has been recognized by the National Science Foundation’s US Ignite program, the national TechHire City network, and the Kauffman Foundation. While located in the idyllic rural state of Vermont, our frontier paradise is only about a two-hour drive to Montreal and a three-hour drive to Boston. In addition, Burlington International Airport offers direct flights to numerous North American destinations.
