Job Summary
The Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering at the University of Colorado Boulder is currently seeking applications for a tenure-track faculty position. The department and college are particularly interested in qualified candidates who can contribute through their research, teaching, and service to the diversity and excellence of our academic community.

Who We Are
The University of Colorado Boulder (CU Boulder) is one of Colorado's flagship public institutions and among the most research-active public universities in the country. The College of Engineering and Applied Science (CEAS), the second largest school or college on the CU Boulder campus, is ranked as a top 10 public graduate engineering program and a top 20 undergraduate engineering program, and has multiple specialty programs ranked in the top 20. Equally important, we are committed to fostering a diverse, inclusive, and academically excellent community (https://www.colorado.edu/engineering/diversity-equity-and-inclusion) . Our approximately 250 tenure-track, 115 instructional-track, and 30 research-track faculty serve more than 6,000 undergraduate students, 1,300 master's students, and 1,000 PhD students. Our college recently updated its strategic vision (https://www.colorado.edu/engineering/vision) to include three core foci: (i) Research & Innovation, (ii) Education, and (iii) Inclusion. We assert that a diverse faculty is necessary for achieving these goals and our campus diversity plan. (https://www.colorado.edu/odece/cu-boulder-diversity-plan) We believe that our college's success requires faculty who actively work to create an inclusive culture within the college.
Ranked 11th for its graduate program and 11th for its undergraduate program by US News, the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering is a world-class department with 38 faculty members, approximately 35 postdoctoral associates, 179 graduate students, and 371 undergraduate students. The department has a proud tradition of academic excellence. We have two robust ABET-accredited undergraduate degree programs, where the emphasis is on interactive learning, computer applications, a wide variety of interdisciplinary options, and undergraduate research. We have created thousands of screencasts and interactive simulations - available on LearnChemE.com - that are accessed millions of times annually.
