Tenure-track faculty positions (geotech and water resouces) at South Dakota Mines

 At South Dakota Mines, we are seeking to fill two tenure track faculty positions within the Dept of Civil and Environmental Engineering:

  • Geotechnical Engineering – seeking new faculty member who can compliment our campus areas of expertise (geotechnical earthquake engineering, geo-environmental engineering, foundation design, rock mechanics, landslides and slope stability, remote sensing and geomatics, and biogeotechnics) with particular interest in those who have the breadth of geotechnical expertise and depth of geotechnical knowledge to work effectively on and eventually lead transdisciplinary research teams.
  • Water Resources Engineering – seeking new faculty member who can complement existing areas of strength (water treatment, waste-water treatment, disinfection byproducts, sustainability, groundwater, vadose zone modeling and hydrology) by having skills and expertise in hydraulic systems, sediment transport, hydro-informatics or other areas of data-driven or AI-enabled water resources research, and who can work effectively on and eventually lead transdisciplinary research teams.

Rapid City South Dakota enjoys a relatively mild climate and offers year-round recreational opportunities, including world class hiking, biking, trail running, rock climbing, skiing, snowboarding, fishing, and hunting, to name a few.  Additional details regarding the positions can be found at  https://yourfuture.sdbor.edu/ or from the search committee chair Bret.Lingwall@sdsmt.edu.  Please feel free to share this information within your networks
