Description
The Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering (ChBE) at
Tufts University invites applicants for a part-time, non-tenure
eligible faculty position at the Lecturer rank to begin January
2022. The Lecturer will teach a class on Advanced Transport
Phenomena in the graduate (MS and PhD) programs in the department.
The course focuses on mathematical descriptions of momentum,
energy, and mass transport in systems relevant to chemical
engineering. It covers derivations, physical interpretations, and
analytical and numerical solutions to the differential equations
involved, scaling and dimensional analysis of the relevant systems,
and empirical correlations between dimensionless numbers and their
applications.
Tufts' School of Engineering (SOE) distinguishes itself by the
interdisciplinary focus and integrative nature of its engineering
education and research programs, within the intellectually rich
environment of both a "Research I" university and a top-ranked
undergraduate institution. The past ten years have been a period of
extraordinary growth for SOE at Tufts, with recruitment of over
half of its current tenured and tenure-track faculty members and a
more than three-fold increase in research productivity. Tufts
offers the best of a liberal arts college atmosphere, coupled with
the intellectual and technological resources of a major research
university. Home to seven graduate and professional schools across
three campuses, Tufts University prides itself on its culture of
cross-school partnerships. Located on Tufts' Medford/Somerville
campus, only six miles from historic downtown Boston, SOE faculty
members have extensive opportunities for academic and industrial
collaboration, as well as participation in the rich intellectual
life of the region.
