The Department of Aerospace Engineering & Mechanics (AEM) at the University of Minnesota seeks to fill multiple open-rank, tenure-track/tenured faculty positions over the next several years across the department's core areas in aerospace engineering research and education: fluid dynamics, solid mechanics, and aerospace systems. AEM is particularly interested in faculty who complement and expand our expertise in fluid dynamics and diagnostics, solid mechanics and materials, and aerospace systems, guidance, navigation, and control (GNC). Successful candidates are expected to have the potential to conduct a vigorous and significant research program along with the ability to collaborate with researchers with a wide range of viewpoints. Candidates will participate in all aspects of AEM's mission, including (I) teaching undergraduate and graduate courses in aerospace engineering and mechanics to a diverse group of students; (II)
participating in service activities for the department, University, broader scientific community, and society; and (III) supervising undergraduate and graduate students and developing an independent, externally-funded research program. Faculty positions are 9-month, full-time appointments located on the Twin Cities Campus. The target start date for this round of hiring is Fall 2025; however other start dates will be
considered.
