The Department of Biomedical Engineering is dedicated to developing solutions for human health by educating the next generation of biomedical engineers, cultivating leaders, and nurturing the integration of engineering, science, and medicine in a discovery-centered environment. To help advance this mission, we are seeking qualified applicants to fill two tenure-track, faculty positions at the rank of Assistant Professor in the application areas of either brain health/neurological disorders or cancer. Candidates are encouraged to view these areas of emphasis in the broadest sense in determining whether they match their research skills and interests.

In the application areas of brain health and cancer, the Department is seeking candidates whose research expertise aligns with our core research tracks and are working on exciting approaches to diagnose and treat these debilitating and life-threatening diseases. Our UT BME departments core research tracks include the following: (1) biomedical imaging and instrumentation, (2) computational biomedical engineering, (3) cellular and biomolecular engineering, or (4) molecular, cellular, and tissue mechanics. The Department and the Cockrell School of Engineering are committed to building a diverse and inclusive environment.

We are particularly interested in candidates who will contribute to diversity, inclusion, and equity in higher education through their teaching, research, and service.

Required qualifications
