Offer Description

The Department of Mechanical and Process Engineering (www.mavt.ethz.ch ) at ETH Zurich invites applications for the above-mentioned position.

Description

The new professor is expected to establish an ambitious, world-class research program in the field of sustainable engineering. We encourage applications from outstanding candidates with visible expertise in this broad field which ranges from sustainable materials engineering to green manufacturing. Successful candidates must demonstrate an excellent international record of research accomplishments with application to mechanical/aerospace structures and shall be able to leverage this knowledge to solve important engineering challenges such as designing consumer products with sustainable and durable materials, developing lightweight, robust and resilient structures, and conceiving energy-efficient, environmentally friendly, and low-waste manufacturing processes. Specific areas of research may include (but are not limited to): (i) engineering with composite materials emphasizing regenerative and sustainable solutions including natural, biodegradable, and recyclable materials as well as embedded multifunctionality at different scales; (ii) sustainable and circular engineering design at all levels from components to engineering systems; (iii) manufacturing process design with the goal of reducing energy consumption, CO2 emissions and non-reusable waste during the full product life-cycle. Candidates taking an experimental approach offering hands-on learning experiences for our students are highly encouraged to apply.

Requirements

Successful candidates should hold a PhD degree or equivalent in engineering and have an outstanding international record of accomplishments in research on the above topics. Further, a strong motivation and indisputable commitment to teaching is expected. In general, at ETH Zurich undergraduate level courses are taught in German or English and graduate level courses are taught in English.

We offer

ETH Zurich implements a tenure track system equivalent to that of other top international universities. The level of the appointment will depend on the successful candidate's qualifications.
