| The Duke University Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering seeks candidates for a tenure-track position in Environmental Engineering at the level of Assistant Professor, although exceptional candidates at other levels may be considered. While applications from all sub-disciplines of environmental engineering are encouraged, we are particularly interested in candidates with expertise in theoretical, computational and/or experimental approaches to understanding biological, physical, and chemical processes in the environment, including atmospheric transformations, disease agent transport, and/or the impacts of energy technologies. Environmental Engineering in the Pratt School of Engineering is coordinated with activities in the Nicholas School of the Environment. Duke is headquarters for the NSF/EPA Center for the Environmental Implications of Nanotechnology, and an NIEHS Superfund Basic Research Center. We seek applicants with a vision of collaboration and relevance for their research and teaching that is international and cross-disciplinary. Applicants should have a doctoral degree in environmental engineering or a related field. Duke University is an Equal Opportunity and Affirmative Action Employer. Applications from women and under-represented minority groups are strongly encouraged.
Question regarding this position may be directed to Prof. Mark R. Wiesner, Search Committee Chair, at wiesner@duke.edu. Information on Duke’s Environmental Engineering Program can be found at http://www.cee.duke.edu/environmental-engineering. Review of applications will begin on March 15, 2012, but applications will be accepted until the position is filled.
Duke University is regularly ranked as one of the world's top research universities and is one of the highest ranked US universities in a broad range of environmental disciplines ranging from environmental policy and management to environmental law and environmental engineering. Located in the mid-Atlantic Piedmont region in Durham, NC, Duke is within 15 minutes of the laboratories of the US Environmental Protection Agency in Research Triangle Park and the laboratories of the National Institute for Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS).
