Assistant Professor - Engineering for Sustainability and Resilience - Civil and Environmental Engineering The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of California, Berkeley, invites tenure-track faculty applications in support of the Department's broad initiative in Sustainability and Resilience with a focus in the area of Environmental Engineering. Hiring will be at the untenured assistant professor level. Environmental Engineering is evolving in new directions in response to challenges associated with resource limitations and scarcity, climate change and an increased recognition of the potential impacts of emerging environmental and public health challenges facing wealthy countries, like the United States and rapidly developing low- and middle-income countries. Increasingly, solutions to some of the most challenging environmental problems will require technological innovation that leverages the latest advances from other science and...

Assistant Professor - Structural Risk and Reliability for Multi-Hazards - Civil and Environmental Engineering The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of California, Berkeley, invites tenure-track faculty applications in the area of structural engineering for risk and reliability. Hiring will be at the untenured assistant professor level. Reliability, risk, and resilience modeling and assessment and decision-making upon such analyses are critical aspects of performance-based design of complex civil engineering systems, structures, and infrastructure. Performance-based engineering prior to, during and after natural hazards, such as earthquakes, tsunamis, firestorms, hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, extreme temperatures, as well as man-made hazards, is a pressing computationally demanding societal need. It is also recognized that analysis on an individual hazard-by-hazard basis can underestimate the threats to the built environment that...

The University of California, Berkeley seeks applicants for four tenure track (assistant professor) positions and one tenured (associate or full professor) position in the area of “Climate Equity and Environmental Justice,” with an expected start date of July 1, 2021. Successful candidates will be invited to join one or more of the following units: Rausser College of Natural Resources (Department of Environmental Science, Policy and Management and Energy and Resources Group); College of Letters and Sciences (Sociology); College of Environmental Design (Departments of City and Regional Planning and Landscape Architecture and Planning); and College of Engineering (Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering). Human-induced climate change is transforming our physical and social world, and we are witnessing a ‘climate gap,' in which the impacts of these changes disproportionately affect vulnerable and marginalized groups due to historically entrenched...
