• Water Resources Engineering – Planning & Management
• Environmental Engineering – Water Systems & Resiliency
• Professor of Teaching – Engineering Fundamentals

Applications must be submitted by October 15, 2023 for full consideration. More details are available here and all opportunities across the College of Engineering are available here.

The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Idaho is searching for three new faculty members, two tenure-track at the Assistant or Associate level, and one non-tenure track Professor of Practice:

Assistant or Associate Professor in Hydraulics: https://uidaho.peopleadmin.com/postings/41902

We are seeking candidates with interest in emerging areas and/or hydraulics topics of significant societal importance such as green hydropower, hydraulics of rivers and/or lentic systems, hydraulic structures, or some aspect of hydraulics that combines laboratory and computational approaches. Candidates will be encouraged to collaborate with the UI Center for Ecohydraulics (https://www.uidaho.edu/engr/research/cer), a graduate education and research program dedicated to studying links between physical processes and aquatic ecosystems. The candidate will also have the opportunity to collaborate on the recently funded NSF EPSCoR project titled Idaho Community-engaged Resilience for Energy-Water Systems (I-CREWS, https://www.idahoepscor.org/i-crews), which may be a source of start-up and/or continued funding for the right candidate.

Assistant or Associate Professor in Water-Environment: https://uidaho.peopleadmin.com/postings/41901

We are seeking candidates with teaching and research interests in emerging areas and/or topics of significant societal importance as related to civil engineering and the built environment, including but not limited to climate change and water/wastewater systems resiliency. Candidates with interest in for example water quality, water supply, floods/droughts, waste treatment, contaminant fate and transport, environmental applications of microbiology and biotechnology, resource reclamation/recovery, bio-based energy production systems, water-environment aspects of mining, groundwater systems or other areas with civil engineering importance to society are encouraged to apply.

Professor of Practice in Geotechnical Engineering: https://uidaho.peopleadmin.com/postings/42047

We are particularly interested in candidates with significant professional experience who can serve as a Professor of Practice. The successful candidate will be an outstanding and committed educator who can teach both undergraduate and graduate courses in geotechnical and geological engineering, as well as teach CEE “service” courses. These service courses may include First Year Engineering, Engineering Surveying, Engineering Graphics, Civil Engineering Analysis and Design, Senior Design, and general engineering courses such as Statics, Dynamics, and Mechanics of Materials. The CEE department is committed to quality education and has high expectations for teaching excellence. The candidate will have the opportunity to advise/mentor both undergraduate and graduate students, both academically and in student organizations such as ASCE. The ability to help manage civil engineering laboratories is a desired qualification.

The Montana State University Department of Civil Engineering (CE) invites applications for a tenure-track faculty position in geotechnical engineering with interdisciplinary experience to support resilient and sustainable communities at the rank of Assistant Professor. The CE Department offers BS and MS degrees in Civil Engineering and Environmental Engineering, and a BS degree in Construction Engineering Technology. The Norm Asbjornson College of Engineering (NACOE) offers a PhD degree in engineering with a Civil Engineering, Environmental Engineering or Applied Mechanics option. 

Founded in 1893 as a Land Grant University, Montana State University (MSU) is composed of eight academic colleges and a graduate school and boasts a friendly, supportive faculty and campus environment. Currently, the University hosts an enrollment of over 16,000 students, including around 2,000 graduate students. MSU is a Carnegie Foundation R1 university for its research activity and is one of only two universities with a very high undergraduate enrollment profile to achieve this designation. 

The CE Department has 17 tenured or tenure-track faculty and offers ABET-accredited baccalaureate programs in both civil engineering and construction engineering technology, and graduate programs at the Master’s and PhD levels. Research opportunities within the Department are enhanced by ties with the Western Transportation Institute (WTI) and the Center for Biofilm Engineering (CBE), as well the resources available in the Subzero Laboratory Facility (SRL), all of which are part of the College of Engineering (COE). 

The successful applicant will be expected to contribute to CE undergraduate and graduate instruction, mentoring, and advising; develop a nationally recognized, externally funded research program; produce scholarly works; and participate in professional/service/outreach activities  

More information about the position can be found at https://jobs.montana.edu/postings/37871. All applications must be submitted through this site. Applicant screening will begin on October 15, 2023 and continue until the position is filled.
