Position Summary
The College of Engineering at Michigan State University (MSU) invites applications for multiple tenure-system faculty positions in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE) in the areas of environmental engineering, hydrology and water resources, climate change, energy, and sustainability. We encourage applications for appointment at the rank of Assistant Professor and will consider exceptional candidates for appointment at the rank of Associate or (Full) Professor.
Candidates must have an earned PhD in Civil Engineering, Environmental Engineering, or a closely related discipline at the time of appointment, with an anticipated start date of August 16, 2025. Successful candidates will be expected to develop a sustainable, externally funded, and internationally recognized research program; contribute significantly to their discipline through scholarly work; demonstrate effective teaching and mentorship of both undergraduate and graduate students; participate in institutional and professional service; and support the university’s mission in advancing diversity, equity, and inclusion. Candidates are encouraged to explain how their research could enhance and align with the department's strengths. This includes connecting their work to broader MSU and Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE) research initiatives, such as: (1) the MSU Water Alliance (https://water.msu.edu/) and its National Science Foundation Research Traineeship WaterCube program (https://water.msu.edu/watercube); (2) the U.S. Department of Energy's Industrial Training and Assessment Center (https://iac.msu.edu/); and (3) MassTimber@MSU (https://www.canr.msu.edu/masstimber/).
Other qualifications include strong leadership and interpersonal skills, excellent written and oral communication skills, an ability to work in a collaborative research environment, and a commitment to fostering and advancing diversity. Joint appointments with other engineering departments are possible, considering existing strengths and capabilities and the candidate’s preferences. Successful candidates will be appointed to an academic-year position in the tenure system, with tenure, if appropriate. Successful candidates are expected to elevate the reputation of MSU through their professional activities. Those who conduct research that enhances or is related to aspects of inclusion and equity are of high interest.
