Idaho State University’s Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering is seeking applications for a 9-month, full-time, tenure-track Assistant Professor position in Water Resources Engineering, beginning in Fall 2025.
This position is partially supported by a recently awarded National Science Foundation Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research Infrastructure Improvement (NSF-EPSCOR) entitled “Idaho Community-engaged Resilience for Energy-Water Systems” (I-CREWS), which will facilitate community-engaged research with Tribal Nations and other stakeholders in Idaho to evaluate, model, and develop future scenarios for energy-water systems under environmental, technological, and social change. In addition to research, the successful candidate will play a pivotal role in developing and teaching both undergraduate and graduate courses, particularly focused on water resources and/or energy-water systems. Expertise in one or more of the fields - hydrology, hydrogeology, hydropower, geothermal, artificial intelligence /machine learning, energy systems - or a related field is an advantage for the candidate.
Key Responsibilities:
1. Foster synergistic interactions within the department/college/university, collaborate statewide with I-CREWS and other university researchers, and the INL.
2. Conduct innovative research in Water Resources and/or Energy Systems leading to publications in top-tier refereed journals and presentations at significant conferences.
3. Secure external funding to support research activities and graduate students.
4. Teach undergraduate/graduate courses in Water Resources and related core courses in the civil engineering curriculum. Courses are preferred in person but may be offered via distance learning.
5. Advise and mentor undergraduate and graduate students.
6. Serve as a possible mentor for projects in the CEE senior capstone design course.
7. Engage in service activities at the departmental, college, and university levels.
8. The selected candidate must be able to obtain an Idaho Professional Engineering (P.E.) license within four years.
Review of applications will begin January 19, 2025, and continue until the position is filled.
