Faculty Position

[Henry Spitz <Henry.Spitz@uc.edu>]

The Department of Mechanical, Industrial and Nuclear Engineering at the
University of Cincinnati is still inviting applications for a tenure-track
faculty position at the Assistant or Associate Professor level in the
Nuclear and Radiological Engineering Program.  The position is available on
January 1, 1999 and will 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 health physics,
radiation interactions and transport in various environmental and
biological media); (2) Sensor Technology Development (including design,
development, and evaluation of innovative radiation detectors and remote
sensing systems); (3) Advanced Reactor Design (including neutronics, stress
analysis, fracture mechanics, and analysis of reactor system signals).

In addition, candidates should have broad interests 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.

The MINE Department has a faculty of 30 professors and enrolls over 500
undergraduate and 250 graduate students in ten degree programs.  Resources
available in the Nuclear and Radiological Engineering Program include five
faculty members, several adjunct faculty who contribute in their particular
areas of expertise and 25 M. S. and Ph. D. students who assisted in the
conduct of over $750,000 of sponsored research projects in FY 1998.
