Position description
The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE) at the University of California, Berkeley, invites tenure-track faculty applications in the area of Integrated, Autonomous Construction and Infrastructure. Hiring will be at the untenured assistant professor level. This position aligns with the Department's Strategic Plan that prioritizes:
● Smart, Sustainable Cities and Regions
● Adaptive and Resilient Infrastructure
● Sustainable Air, Soil, Water and Energy Resources
Autonomy in construction and infrastructure is revolutionizing the way we design, construct, maintain, and operate infrastructure and is an integral part of adaptive, sustainable and resilient infrastructure. It enables integrated, system-level sensing, analysis and optimization that will promote resiliency and sustainability in a wide array of civil engineering domains. As the boundary between design, construction, and operation blurs, new approaches to construction, management, and engineering of infrastructure are needed. The area of this search includes, but is not limited to: autonomous construction operations, human/machine production, construction and operation systems, next-generation multi-scale infrastructure systems, and digitally fabricated, reconfigurable or redeployable materials and structures.
We seek candidates who will lead civil and environmental engineering in the area of infrastructure and construction autonomy. Programmatically, this search area encompasses critical needs in CEE that relate to resiliency and sustainability. A successful candidate will be expected to interface with the College of Engineering faculty's existing strengths in autonomy, robotics, and infrastructure.
New faculty are expected to pursue research excellence and contribute to the existing undergraduate and graduate educational program in Civil and Environmental Engineering, as well as develop new and innovative courses. They are encouraged to collaborate with faculty throughout the Department, the College of Engineering, and the UC Berkeley Campus.
Diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging are core values at UC Berkeley, and is a focus of the Civil and Environmental Engineering Department. Our excellence can only be fully realized by faculty, students, and academic and non-academic staff who share our commitment to these values. Successful candidates for our academic positions will demonstrate evidence of a commitment to advancing diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging.
UC Berkeley is committed to addressing the family needs of faculty, including dual career couples and single parents.
