ob Description
LEHIGH UNIVERSITY. The Departments of Materials Science and Engineering (MSE), Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering (ChBE), and Bioengineering (BioE) within the P.C. Rossin College of Engineering & Applied Science at Lehigh University jointly invite applications at all ranks for a tenure-track or tenured position with a specialization in Soft Matter, with an anticipated start date of July 2026. Tenure on appointment is possible for senior candidates. The successful candidate will be expected to develop a thriving research program in application-driven soft materials (e.g., tissue engineering, smart/stimuli-responsive polymers, soft electronics/wearables, bioinspired systems, biomaterials, bioactive materials) and/or advanced characterization and processing (e.g., cryo-TEM, in situ electron microscopy, microfluidics, rheology, polymer processing, and structure–property mapping, additive manufacturing). The successful candidate will collaborate across departments and with Lehigh’s Institute for Functional Materials & Devices (I-FMD), leveraging advanced tools including one of the most comprehensive scanning and transmission electron microscopy facilities and related micro/nanofabrication and biointerface platforms. More information on the materials characterization facility can be found at: . The primary appointment will be in one of the three departments with opportunity for formal cross-department affiliation or joint appointment.
The individual hired will be expected to teach courses at all levels of the MSE, ChBE, or BioE curriculum; engage in scholarly activities; and participate in departmental, college, and university service. Successful candidates will also be expected to pursue external funding and support PhD students, and contribute to department, college, and university efforts to support an academic culture in which all faculty, students, and staff can thrive to their fullest potential.
Lehigh’s MSE Department () maintains active research in the areas of ceramics, glasses, polymers, electronic materials, biomaterials, metals, modeling/simulation, and electron microscopy. The research in Lehigh’s ChBE Department () includes areas of biomolecular science and therapeutics; energy and the environment; functional materials and nanotechnology; colloids, emulsions, and interfacial science; and computations, systems, and machine learning. The research in Lehigh’s BioE Department () spans key areas such as biocomputation and modeling, diagnostics, sensors and devices, and materials and therapies; outcomes of our faculty-led efforts are contributing to advances in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, the development of platforms for the early detection of disease and precision diagnostics, and the design of novel biological pharmaceuticals and nanomedicine, biosensors, and medical devices. Among the faculty of the three departments are fellows of professional societies as well as award-winning professors, including many NSF CAREER award winners. The departments consist of a diverse group of students, staff, and faculty, and place a strong emphasis on inclusion and belonging in teaching and scholarship.
