Description
The School of Sustainable Chemical, Biological and Materials Engineering (SCBME) in the Gallogly College of Engineering at the University of Oklahoma invites applications for a tenure-track position at the Assistant Professor level, with expected start date of August 2026. We are especially interested in applicants with research activities in catalysis for energy production and production of high value derivatives from fossil fuels. The prospective candidate is expected to complement SCBME's research portfolio on heterogeneous catalysis, separations, soft materials design, and colloidal engineering. The successful candidate will be synergistic to ongoing research initiatives within the Gallogly College of Engineering (https://www.ou.edu/coe/research/clusters-and-initiatives), with strategic university-wide priorities such as environmental and energy sustainability, and with cross-cutting initiatives such as the Oklahoma Aerospace and Defense Institute (OADI), the Data Institute for Societal Change (DISC) and the Institute for Community and Society Transformation (ICAST). Successful candidates would be able to engage in both disciplinary and interdisciplinary research and to pursue convergence research funding opportunities related to the research areas outlined above. The successful candidate will be expected to teach both undergraduate and graduate courses and to demonstrate a commitment to excellent and innovative instruction. Expectations include collaboration with other faculty members and effective mentoring of students with an ethos of care and support.
