The Department of Chemical Engineering at the University of Washington invites applications or nominations for a full-time tenure-track faculty position to begin September 16, 2014. The Department is seeking candidates at the level of Assistant or Associate Professor. The department is growing and currently has a core group of 18 research and tenure-track faculty, 80 graduate students, 140 undergraduates, and 15 Post Doctoral Research Associates.

The University of Washington is investing in Molecular Engineering and Science (see http://www.moles.washington.edu) and recently launched a Clean Energy Institute (see http://cei.washington.edu).
