The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Department of Mechanical
Engineering seeks candidates for faculty positions starting July 1, 2021 or on
a mutually agreed date thereafter. The search is for candidates to be hired at
the assistant professor level; under special circumstances, however, an
untenured associate or senior faculty appointment is possible, commensurate
with experience. Our department is committed to fostering interdisciplinary
research that can address grand challenges facing our society. We seek
candidates who will provide inspiration and leadership in research, contribute
proactively to both undergraduate and graduate level teaching in the Mechanical
Engineering department, and add to the diversity of the academic community.
Faculty duties include teaching at the graduate and undergraduate levels,
advising students, and conducting research. Candidates must hold an earned
Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering or a related field by the beginning of
employment. Candidates in all areas related to Mechanical Engineering will be
considered, including, but not limited to: (1) mechanics: modeling,
experimentation and computation, (2) design, manufacturing, and product
development, (3) control, instrumentation, and robotics, (4) energy science and
engineering, (5) ocean science and engineering, (6) bioengineering, (7)
micro/nanoengineering, and (8) data science for design and engineering science.
Applications must include a cover letter, curriculum vitae, 2-3 page statement
of research, and teaching interests and goals. In addition, candidates should
provide a statement regarding their views on diversity, inclusion, and
belonging, including past and current contributions as well as their vision and
plans for the future in these areas. They should also include copies of no more
than three publications and arrange for four individuals to submit letters of
recommendation on their behalf. This information must be entered electronically
at the following site:
