[ETH Diversity] ETH Zurich: Assistant Professor (Tenure Track) of Food Engineering for Nutrition

[Schuler Susanne (Prs)]

Assistant Professor (Tenure Track) of Food Engineering for Nutrition  

The Department of Health Sciences and Technology (www.hest.ethz.ch
<http://www.hest.ethz.ch> ) at ETH Zurich invites applications for the
above-mentioned position.

 

The candidate who will be embedded in the Institute of Food Science,
Nutrition and Health will be expected to have expertise in the fields of
Food Process Engineering, Nutrition and Food Technology. Particularly she/he
may have expertise and industry outreach in experimental food processing and
engineering methodologies, process modelling and simulation, control and
mathematical optimization methods, scaling and translation, including use of
new and traditional raw materials of agricultural origin more efficiently to
produce food with high palatability and high nutritional value. In addition,
advanced knowledge of most relevant traditional and novel high throughput
processes in food manufacturing such as: dehydration by spray-, roller- or
belt drying; high moisture- and cooking extrusion; and fractionation by
membrane separation, extraction, and air classification is desirable. Basic
nutrition knowledge will be required for interfacing engineering conditions
with effects on the nutritional properties of processed food ingredients and
products thereof.  

 

Additional prerequisites are a strong motivation to student education and
teaching in the Department’s program in Food Sciences. She/he will be
expected to teach graduate (English) and undergraduate (German or English)
level courses. 

 

Assistant professorships have been established to promote the careers of
younger scien­tists. ETH Zurich implements a tenure track system equivalent
to that of other top international universities. At the assistant professor
level, commitment to teaching, the ability to lead a research group and
contribution to the interactive, scientific environment at ETH Zurich are
expected.

 

ETH Zurich is an equal opportunity and family-friendly employer, values
diversity, and is responsive to the needs of dual-career couples.
