[ETH Diversity] Professor / Assistant Professor (Tenure Track) of Sustainable Structures at ETH Zurich

[Haller Annina (Prs)]

Professor / Assistant Professor (Tenure Track) of Sustainable Structures

 

The Department of Mechanical and Process Engineering (www.mavt.ethz.ch
<http://www.mavt.ethz.ch> ) at ETH Zurich invites applications for the
above-mentioned position.

 

The new professor is expected to establish an ambitious, world-class
research program in the field of sustainable structures. We encourage
applications from outstanding candidates with visible expertise in this
broad field which ranges from sustainable materials engineering to green
manufacturing. Successful candidates must demonstrate an excellent
international record of research accomplishments and shall be able to
leverage this knowledge to solve important engineering challenges such as
designing structures with sustainable and durable materials, developing
lightweight, robust and resilient structures, and conceiving
energy-efficient, environmentally-friendly and low-waste manufacturing
processes. Specific areas of research may include (but are not limited to):
(i) engineering with composite materials emphasizing sustainable solutions
including natural, biodegradable, and recyclable materials as well as
embedded multifunctionality at different scales, (ii) mechanical design and
optimization, with a focus on reconfigurable, active and smart structures;
(iii) manufacturing process design with the goal of reducing energy
consumption, CO2 emissions and non-reusable waste during the full product
life-cycle. 

 

Successful candidates should hold a PhD degree or equivalent in engineering
and have an outstanding international record of accomplishments in research
on the above topics. Further, a strong motivation and indisputable
commitment to teaching is expected. In general, at ETH Zurich undergraduate
level courses are taught in German or English and graduate level courses are
taught in English.

 

ETH Zurich implements a tenure track system equivalent to that of other top
international universities. The level of the appointment will depend on the
successful candidate's qualifications.

 

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