The Department of Chemical & Biological Engineering at The University of Alabama invites applications for multiple tenure-track faculty positions consistent with building upon and expanding the strengths of our faculty (che.eng.ua.edu/people). Candidates will be considered for appointment at the rank of Assistant or Associate Professor commensurate with experience and qualifications.

Applications are sought to fill three total positions. Two positions are focused on researchers that will interact with the newly-developed Alabama Water Institute (awi.ua.edu). One additional position is in the areas of Energy, Materials, or Bioengineering.

The department benefits from the College and University’s expansion in enrollment and facilities including completion of the $300 MM Engineering and Science Complex in 2013. These buildings provide nearly one million ft2 of state-of-the-art research and instructional space.

Applicants must have an earned doctorate (Ph.D.) in chemical engineering or a closely related field. Application packages must be submitted electronically and should consist of a cover letter, CV, statements of research and teaching interests, and contact information for at least three references. Applications will be accepted and reviewed continuously until the positions are filled with a possible start date as early as January 2018. Apply online at facultyjobs.ua.edu. (Requisition#: 0810907). Questions about the positions can be directed to AlabamaChBESearch@eng.ua.edu.
