The University at Albany

Albany, New York

As part of its multi-year strategic plan, the College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering (CNSE) at the University at Albany-SUNY seeks applicants for multiple positions at the tenure-track Assistant, Associate and Full Professor levels.  Recruitments of individual faculty or clusters of faculty with specific integrated expertise will be considered and are actively sought.

 

As the first of its kind in the world, CNSE was created to enable the discovery and dissemination of fundamental knowledge and new frontier scientific principles in the emerging interdisciplinary fields of nanotechnology, including nanoscience, nanoengineering, nanobiotechnology and nanoeconomics.   CNSE is housed within a 750,000 square foot NanoFab megacomplex that includes the only integrated 200mm/300mm wafer facilities in the academic world.  Over 85,000 sq.ft. of state-of-the-art, class 1 capable, cleanroom facilities house the most advanced 200mm/300mm wafer device fabrication and integration facilities.  These are coupled with an optimized set of tailored design, assembly, and characterization capabilities for new frontier nanoscience, nanoengineering, nanoeconomics, and nanobiotechnology concepts.   Opportunities are available in the following areas within the four cross-disciplinary constellations of CNSE:

 

  • Molecular, optoelectronic,
    nanobiological, and spintronic materials, devices, and architectures;
  • Nanosystems and nanosensors;
  • Optical, extreme ultra-violet and e-beam nanolithography;
  • 3D hyper-integration of devices and systems;
  • Atomic scale materials characterization, analysis reliability, and metrology;
  • Nanobiotechnology. 
  • Nanomedicine.

Candidates must have a Ph.D. in a relevant field of physics, chemistry, chemical engineering, materials science, materials engineering, biotechnology, or electrical engineering, from a college or university accredited by a USDOE or internationally recognized accrediting organization.  They must possess demonstrated excellence in academic, scientific and scholarly activities and a proven track record in establishing vigorous externally funded research programs in one of the technical areas listed above.  Postdoctoral experience is required, with a minimum of two to ten years experience in an aggressive academic, research and development environment, depending on the level of the position sought. Applicants must address in their application their ability to work with culturally diverse populations. Joint appointments in additional academic departments are possible and highly encouraged where appropriate. Candidates will be asked to submit a list of publications related to their research activities.
