Position description
The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of California, Berkeley, invites tenure-track faculty applications in support of the Department's broad initiative in Sustainable and Resilient Engineering with focal areas Adaptive and Resilient Infrastructure and Multiscale Civil Systems. Hiring will be at the untenured assistant professor level. Advancing equity and inclusion is fundamental to UC Berkeley's Principles of Community, and is a focus for the Civil and Environmental Engineering Department.
Civil and environmental engineering is at the center of engineering for sustainability and resilience, as we face urgent and emerging challenges to address growing risks to infrastructure components, systems, and services due to climate change, earthquakes and other natural hazards, and aging infrastructure. Renewal of our infrastructure components and systems must be done with consideration of how their engineering, design, implementation, and operation must be modified in the face of challenges like those above. The Civil and Environmental Engineering Department at UC Berkeley is leading the way in addressing these societal challenges in a way that balances sustainability, resilience, and equity.
We seek candidates who will lead civil and environmental engineering to improve the sustainability and resilience of the built environment with a focus on either adaptive and resilient infrastructure or multiscale civil systems. Examples of the former include, but are not limited to: adaptive, modular, deployable, reconfigurable infrastructure; new and sustainable materials; renewable energy infrastructure; and autonomous construction and infrastructure. Examples of the multiscale civil systems involve interactions across scales from the individual to societal and include, but are not limited to, the following applications: system integration (system of systems, complex adaptive system); and system measurement, management, modeling and analysis of usage, behavior, and performance. We welcome candidates focusing on any area (or multiple areas of civil infrastructure, including, but not limited to, buildings, transportation, energy, and other structures. Research connections that extend beyond the traditional bounds of civil and environmental engineering, or connect to emergent tools in machine learning and artificial intelligence, are encouraged.
New faculty are expected to contribute to undergraduate and graduate curricula in Civil and Environmental Engineering as well as develop new and innovative courses. They are also encouraged to collaborate with faculty throughout the Department and across the Berkeley campus.
The University is also committed to addressing the family needs of faculty, including dual career couples and single parents. For information about potential relocation to Berkeley, or career needs of accompanying partners and spouses, please visit https://ofew.berkeley.edu/new-faculty.
