The Department of Chemical Engineering at Rowan University invites applicants for tenure-track faculty position(s) at the Assistant Professor rank. Successful candidates will develop a vigorous independent research program. Applications from all areas of chemical and biochemical engineering will be considered.

The Chemical Engineering Department has a well-established undergraduate education program, and it is now seeking to build a dynamic graduate research component. A new Ph.D. program and facilities expansion and renovation plan will help support this endeavor. The new faculty member will be part of a nucleus of research-focused faculty who will be hired over the next few years. With this in mind, the candidate is to develop and sustain a nationally recognized externally funded research program, which utilizes and supports our multidisciplinary engineering clinics and graduate programs.

A plan for a research program that specifically addresses the above characteristics and enhances the new research mission of the Department must be presented. Demonstrated ability in writing proposals, presenting and publishing, and mentoring students is desirable. A doctorate in chemical engineering or related field is required for appointment.
