Open Rank Joint Faculty Position in the Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering and the Institute of the Environment and Sustainability
University of California, Los Angeles
Details
Posted: 17-Dec-21
Location: Los Angeles, California
Salary: Open
Internal Number: 2714521
University of California Los Angeles
Requisition Number: JPF07011
Building upon UCLA's commitment to foster an inclusive environment and promote the success of underrepresented students, the Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering in the Henry Samueli School of Engineering & Applied Science and the Institute of the Environment & Sustainability invite applications for our open rank tenure-track faculty position.
Applicants for the positions must have a demonstrated record of excellence in, or show exceptional promise for, high-quality research, teaching, and professional development. In addition, applicants must have a demonstrated record of interest in, and commitment to, the mentorship of students from underrepresented and underserved populations, including women. The successful candidate will be expected to advance their active mentoring activities and participate in programs that provide research and professional development opportunities for our diverse student body (such as our Center for Excellence in Engineering and Diversity, our Women in Engineering program, and our student organizations listed at https://samueli.ucla.edu/equity-diversity-and-inclusion/). Teaching and service expectations will not exceed those of other faculty positions. Applications will be considered at all levels, with a preference for appointments at the Assistant Professor level.
The Institute of the Environment and Sustainability and the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) are particularly interested in candidates with an expertise on the relationship between society and environmental systems (both engineered and natural), with a particular focus on energy and water systems. Applications for appointments at any level (Assistant, Associate, or Full Professor) will be considered. Applicants should hold a Ph.D. in Civil and Environmental Engineering, or a closely related field, with a track record of publications and collaborations with social scientists, and an ability to teach undergraduate and graduate courses in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering and graduate courses at the Institute of the Environment and Sustainability.
The study of environmental systems investigates how social objectives lead to the planning, building and implementation of technical systems, that are then monitored, regulated, managed and updated to meet standards of performance or new social objectives. Understanding how this relationship might be impacted by such issues as climate change, new technologies, fiscal constraints, societal trends and regulatory change are important areas of research. The focus is not solely the science and technology of socio-technical systems, but how they evolve and interact to create path dependencies or opportunities for change and may lead to socially unequal outcomes and environmental degradation. The ideal candidate's research would explore the question of resilience and performance of energy and water systems considering climate adaptation, natural hazards, environmental impacts, and socio-economic dimensions. This may include sophisticated modeling approaches, distributed data, embedded and remote sensing, institutional analysis, network analysis, flow analysis and more.
Applicants should be active researchers with promise in developing and maintaining an extramurally supported research program, publishing, and disseminating research findings and serving as leaders at the forefront of their field. Applicants committed to developing collaborations as part of multidisciplinary research teams are of particular interest. As part of their educational responsibilities, the candidate is expected to mentor undergraduate and graduate students and teach lecture and/or laboratory courses.
