FACULTY POSITION
Hopkins Extreme Materials Institute
Johns Hopkins University
The Hopkins Extreme Materials Institute invites applications for a tenure-track faculty position in the broad areas associated with materials and structures in extreme environments. We seek faculty members who are enthused about the HEMI Mission: providing global intellectual leadership to advance the fundamental science associated with materials and structures under extreme conditions and demonstrating extreme performance. Exceptionally qualified candidates at all ranks will be considered.
While all directions related to the HEMI Mission will be considered, some directions of particular interest include:
1. Structures in extreme environments, such as blast, extreme temperatures, impact/crash, natural hazards, disasters, nuclear events
2. Materials behavior and performance in extreme environments, such as extreme temperatures or pressures, very high loading rates, intense radiative environments, extreme electromagnetic fields
3. High-power laser interactions with matter
The successful candidate for this position will have a primary appointment in any of the Departments of the Whiting School of Engineering and be an integral member of the Hopkins Extreme Materials Institute.
The successful candidate must have an earned doctorate in related fields, and is expected to establish a strong, independent, internationally recognized research program as well as contribute fully to both undergraduate and graduate instruction.
