Assistant/Associate Professor Opening in Transmission Electron Microscopy of Materials
The Department of Materials Science and Engineering at The Pennsylvania State University has an opening for a tenure-track faculty member with expertise in transmission electron microscopy and related materials characterization techniques. Appointment at the Assistant or Associate Professor level is preferred.
Penn State has highly ranked graduate and undergraduate programs in materials science and engineering with 164 graduate students and 160 undergraduates. The department has 30 faculty members with exceptional research programs on electronic and photonic materials, metals, ceramics, polymers, nanomaterials, biomaterials, energy conversion materials, and computational materials science. The Materials Research Institute, Nanofabrication Laboratory and the Materials Characterization Laboratory house state-of-the-art facilities for characterization, synthesis, nanofabrication, and computation, which will be in the new $230 million Millennium Science Complex housed on Penn State’s central campus.
The successful candidate will be expected to establish a funded, independent research program as well as collaborate with other researchers at Penn State. Opportunities exist to teach core courses in the undergraduate program and graduate courses on topics related to transmission electron microscopy and other analytical techniques. The search committee will evaluate applications as received and will continue to do so until the position is fi lled. Applicants should submit 1) a curriculum vitae, 2) up to three pages describing research interests, 3) a one-page teaching statement, and 4) a list of at least three references with contact information. Applications should be submitted electronically to the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at
search@matse.psu.edu.
Penn State is committed to affi rmative action, equal opportunity and the diversity of its workforce.
