Computational Mechanics

Applications are invited for a tenure track faculty position at the Assistant/Associate Professor level in Computational Mechanics starting in Fall 2009 or as soon as possible thereafter. Specific research areas include fluid mechanics and advanced energy systems, but applicants are not restricted to these specializations. Multidisciplinary activities are a strong feature of the Lehigh campus. Candidates are required to have significant experience in code development related to high performance parallel processing environments. The successful candidate will be expected to develop a vigorous research program and to have a firm commitment to excellence in teaching at both the graduate and undergraduate levels.

Using our online application, please submit a curriculum vitae that includes a statement of your research plans and professional goals, a list of refereed publications and invited presentations, a summary of your teaching experience, and the names and addresses of four referees. Applications can also be sent by mail or electronically to: Barbara McGuire (bcm208@lehigh.edu), Administrative Assistant, Mechanical Engineering & Mechanics, Packard Laboratory, 19 Memorial Drive West, Bethlehem, PA 18015-3085, and should be marked “Attention: Chair, Computational Mechanics Search Committee.”

Review of applications will begin upon receipt and will continue until the post is filled. Lehigh is an Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity employer. Applications from women and minorities are strongly encouraged. Excellent benefits, including domestic partner, are offered (see http://www.lehigh.edu/~insloan).

Solid Mechanics/Advanced Materials

Lehigh University is accepting applications for a faculty position at the Associate or Assistant Professor level in Solid Mechanics/Advanced Materials. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in experimental and/or theoretical aspects of solid mechanics applied to the development of advanced materials for structural applications in extreme environments. The successful candidate will be expected to develop a vigorous research program and to have a firm commitment to excellence in teaching at both the graduate and undergraduate levels. Preference will be given to research areas associated with advanced energy applications. A multidisciplinary research program is an important priority including, strong interactions with government agencies, industry, and existing research centers at Lehigh University.
