Job Description:
The UNL College of Engineering is undergoing an exciting period of significant growth, related in part to the University joining the Big Ten Conference in 2011. The College anticipates hiring 100 new faculty in the next five years. An allocation of $2.5 million has been authorized for new faculty hires to start in Fall 2015, and this level of funding is expected to continue for several years. A major focus of the College’s teaching, research and outreach enterprise in the coming decade will be on strengthening collaborations and partnerships with the University of Nebraska Medical Center and Creighton University Medical Center, both located in Omaha, and Madonna Rehabilitation Hospital in Lincoln. Consequently, the College is seeking to hire a multidisciplinary group of faculty that have complementary expertise related to Biomedical Engineering. The College is co-located in two cities about one hour apart, with approximately 2/3 of the faculty in Lincoln and 1/3 in Omaha. The ECE Department operates in both locations, and a number of these new faculty positions will be located at the Omaha campus. Applicants are expected to have a Ph.D. or equivalent in electrical engineering, computer engineering, biomedical engineering, or a closely related field. Applicants should have a record of strong scholarly achievement and a demonstrated commitment to excellence in undergraduate and graduate education. Candidates at the assistant professor level must have the potential to establish a strong externally funded research program, while candidates for positions at higher ranks are expected to have a history of funded research and a strong international reputation. Research areas of particular interest include: • Bioinformatics • Computational Systems Biology • Robotics and Controls • Wearable Sensor Networks • Molecular Communications • Modelling Pharmacological Processes • Nanonetworking • Prosthetic and Implantable Devices and Systems Opportunities for collaborations across the University of Nebraska include the University of Nebraska Medical Center, the Center for Nanohybrid Functional Materials, Innovation Campus, and other state- and federally-funded research centers and programs. An outstanding infrastructure exists for conducting research, including central facilities housing state-of-the-art instrumentation within the Nebraska Center for Materials and Nanoscience and the Nebraska Nanoengineering Research Facility. Applications must be submitted via http://employment.unl.edu (requisition #F_140173). Complete applications will include a cover letter (with specialty and position level clearly stated), CV, research and teaching statements (4 separate documents) and a list of three references must be included. Review of application materials will begin December 1, 2014 and continue until the positions are filled. Send reference letters to University of Nebraska, Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Attn: Biomedical Engineering Search Committee, 209N SEC, Lincoln, NE 68588-0511. Please call 402-472-3771 with questions. The University of Nebraska-Lincoln is committed to a pluralistic campus community through affirmative action, equal opportunity, work-life balance, and dual careers.
