Responsibilities: The successful candidate will be expected to establish a nationally and internationally recognized program that utilizes advanced and innovative biochemical and/or thermochemical approaches to obtain value-added bioproducts such as food, nutraceuticals, polymers, chemicals, and pharmaceutical products from agricultural, biological, and forest materials. The research portfolio of the successful candidate can also include bioprocess engineering modeling approaches such as computational fluid dynamics, life-cycle analysis and/or techno-economic analysis. The successful candidate is expected to (a) secure extramural funding to support the research program and to train graduate students, (b) collaborate effectively with departmental faculty as well as those outside the department, and (c) complement existing bioprocess engineering expertise in the department. Instructional responsibilities will include teaching existing undergraduate and graduate level engineering courses such as bioprocess modeling/analysis, fluid mechanics for biological systems, and/or bulk solid handling and processes. The candidate should also be capable of developing new bioprocess engineering courses that emphasize topics such as bioprocess engineering hands-on skills, biomanufacturing, and biological fermentation, separations and downstream processing. In addition, the successful candidate will provide career counseling for students in the biosystems engineering department; transfer results of the scholarly program through recognized and peer review outlets; and provide leadership to the profession through state and national professional society participation. The successful candidate is expected to be involved in departmental, college, and university committee service.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
