Salary: Assistant Professor $150k-$200k/Associate Professor $180k-$245k/Full Professor $200k-$450k

The Johns Hopkins University's Department of Materials Science and Engineering invites applications for tenured or tenure-track faculty positions at all ranks (Assistant Professor, Associate Professor, or Full Professor) in the areas of computational materials science (including data science and artificial intelligence) and big data to advance materials synthesis, processing, and characterization. 

We seek candidates whose research focuses on modeling, machine learning/AI, or big data characterization of all material classes, including biomaterials and electronic materials. Research topics, both foundational and applied, at the intersection of machine learning, data science, and materials science, among other research areas, are of interest to this call.

Candidates will be encouraged to collaborate with existing university-wide initiatives. Opportunities for interactions across the university include the Data Science and AI Institute, the Materials Characterization and Processing facility, the Hopkins Extreme Materials Institute, the Institute for NanoBioTechnology, Ralph O'Connor Sustainable Energy Institute (ROSEI), the Mathematical Institute for Data Science, and JHU's Applied Physics Laboratory. Johns Hopkins University has committed to a transformative investment in its Data Science and AI Institute, including the addition of 80 new tenure-track faculty positions, 30 Bloomberg Distinguished Professorships, and the construction of a 500,000-square-foot state-of-the-art facility on the Homewood campus.

The expected salary range is Assistant Professors $150k-$200k, Associate Professors $180k-$245k, Full Professors $200k-$450k, for 12-month FTE. The referenced salary range is based on Johns Hopkins University's good faith belief at the time of posting. The actual compensation offered to the selected candidate may vary and will be based on factors including, but not limited to, the experience and qualifications of the selected candidate - e.g., years in rank, training, field, discipline, other work experience, and other similar factors; geographic location; internal equity; external market conditions; and other factors as reasonably determined by the University.

Diversity, equity and inclusion are integral values of the university. Accordingly, the department seeks candidates who can contribute to racial equity, diversity, and inclusion through service, mentorship, teaching, and scholarship.

Applications will be reviewed starting January 15, 2025 and will be accepted until the position is filled.

Qualifications

Applicants must hold an earned doctorate in an appropriate field by the time their appointment begins. Candidates must have demonstrated an ability to conduct outstanding independent research and show promise for excellent teaching, mentoring and entrepreneurship in all areas.
