expected to be filled as soon as possible thereafter.  

The Department seeks candidates with research and teaching interests in
radiological and nuclear engineering that include at least one of the
following areas: (1) Radiological Assessment (including radiation
interactions and transport in various environmental and biological media);
(2) Radiation Sensor Technology Development (including design, development,
and evaluation of innovative radiation detectors and remote sensing
systems);  (3) Reactor Design Technology (including advanced reactor
systems, stress analysis, fracture mechanics of irradiated materials, and
the analysis of reactor system signals.  In addition, candidates should
have broad interest and the flexibility to work in diverse areas as a
member of an integrated departmental academic and research team.
Participation in professional society activities at the local, regional and
national level is expected.  

		Resources available in the Nuclear and Radiological Program include five
faculty members and 30 M. S. and Ph. D. students conducting approximately
$750,000 of sponsored research projects associated with the development of
novel radiation detection instruments, environmental measurements,
radiation dosimetry, bioengineering, medical physics, health physics and
nuclear engineering.  
Candidates must have an undergraduate degree in engineering and an earned
doctorate in nuclear or mechanical engineering. Research accomplishments
demonstrating the ability to develop and direct sponsored research is
essential.  Candidates should be committed to supervising graduate students
and teaching undergraduate and graduate engineering courses at both the
