Faculty Position in Computational Engineering

October 20, 2003


MIT's School of Engineering has created a new junior tenure-track faculty position in the general area of Computational Engineering. The individual will reside in one of three engineering departments (Aeronautics & Astronautics, Electrical Engineering & Computer Science, or Mechanical Engineering). Applicants should have a doctoral degree in a field such as engineering, computational mathematics, or computer science, and research interests relevant to one of the above departments.

Computational Engineering is being interpreted broadly, including computation (theory and/or practice) associated with modeling, simulation, design, optimization, control, and visualization of engineering systems. It includes modeling and simulation of physical phenomena and product behavior (Engineering Science); and modeling and design of complex systems to achieve maximum operational performance (Systems Optimization). The holder of this position should be able to teach graduate level subjects in his or her field of expertise and undergraduate subjects within his or her home department, and will be expected to engage in multidisciplinary research. This new faculty position, available September, 2004, is designed to make a long-term investment in the important field of Computational Engineering. We actively seek qualified minority and women candidates because of our strong commitment to diversity in engineering education, research, and practice.

Applications must include two copies of the following: a cover letter, a statement of interest of at least two pages and a c.v. with the names, addresses, and email addresses of three individuals who will provide letters of recommendation. Send by December 1, 2003 to: Chair, Computational Engineering Search Committee, School of Engineering, Room 1-211, 77 Massachusetts Avenue, Cambridge, MA 02139-4307; or by electronic mail to cefs@mit.edu (PDF or plain text). Applications will be reviewed starting in late fall, 2003.
