Geotechnical Faculty Positions School of Civil and Environmental Engineering Georgia Institute of Technology The School of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, Georgia announces the opening of multiple tenure-track faculty positions in all areas of Civil and Environmental Engineering. especially one or more positions in Geotechnical Engineering. Applications will be considered for Assistant, Associate, and Full Professors. At GT, our geotechnical group is entitled: Geosystems Engineering. Research areas of interest include broad areas of geotechnics, geomechanics, geophysics, and soil & rock, as well as sustainability and resilience of subsurface infrastructure systems subjected to natural and man-made hazards, including geotechnical earthquake engineering; new laboratory and field developments at the confluence of sensors, IT and modeling; subsurface solutions to global problems of energy generation, capture, storage and transmission; engineered geomaterials; and high performance computing. Applicants with the ability to work across other engineering & related disciplines are especially encouraged to apply. Details are found at: http://geosystems.ce.gatech.edu/ The School of Civil and Environmental Engineering has vibrant programs in Geotechnical Engineering, Construction, Environmental, Environmental Fluid Mechanics and Water Resources, Structural, and Transportation Engineering. In both Civil Engineering and Environmental Engineering, the School's undergraduate programs are ranked 2nd and 3rd nationally, and the graduate programs are ranked 3rd and 5th, respectively. The School currently has approximately 790 undergraduate and 400 graduate students. www.ce.gatech.edu Candidates must hold a doctoral degree in Geotechnical/Civil & Environmental Engineering, or a related field at the time of appointment, and will have either demonstrated, or shown a clear potential, for creative and independent research that would lead to a strong extramurally-funded research program and national and international recognition. Incumbents will teach both undergraduate and graduate courses. Screening of applicants will continue until January 5, 2015 or until the position is filled.
