Job description

Description
The Department of Biomedical Engineering is dedicated to developing solutions for human health by educating the next generation of biomedical engineers, cultivating leaders, and nurturing the integration of engineering, science, and medicine in a discovery-centered environment. To help advance this mission, we are seeking an applicant to fill one tenure-track, faculty position at the rank of Assistant Professor. We are interested in candidates who develop approaches and/or technologies to reduce, and ultimately eliminate, healthcare disparities, particularly in the core strengths of our program in cardiovascular systems, neuroengineering, cancer, and regenerative medicine. Areas of interest include applications addressing disparities in cancer detection, therapies and outcomes; women's health including sex-based differences in diagnostics and therapeutics; and healthcare in disadvantaged populations such as racial and ethnic minority populations, socioeconomic disadvantaged groups, underserved rural populations, and sexual and gender minorities.
Qualifications
Required qualifications include a doctorate in engineering or a related field with a strong record of research accomplishments, publications, and funding appropriate for the applicant's career stage. The successful candidate will be expected to teach core biomedical engineering courses and to create undergraduate and graduate learning environments that address the needs of students from a variety of socioeconomic and academic backgrounds, with differing learning styles and abilities. Further, the successful candidate will be expected to develop an externally sponsored research program, mentor graduate students, collaborate with other faculty, and have a commitment to university and professional service. We seek applicants who have a desire to build collaborations with the newly established Dell Medical School and the LIVESTRONG Cancer Institutes, as well as regional medical centers. Furthermore, the Department has strong clinical partnerships with a number of medical institutions across Texas, including MD Anderson Cancer Center, UT Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas, and UT Health Science Centers at Houston and San Antonio.
Application Instructions
Interested persons should include a cover letter expressing interest; a detailed curriculum vitae including academic and professional experience and peer reviewed publications (please include PDF copies of a maximum of your two most significant, peer-reviewed, published manuscripts); a statement of research summarizing past contributions to and future plans for addressing disparities in healthcare; a statement of teaching goals with emphasis on broadening participation and effective classroom practices; three confidentially submitted reference letters via the Interfolio portal. Applications received before November 1, 2023 will be given priority review; all reference letters should be received preferably no later than November 15, 2023.
