Open Rank Tenure Track Faculty Positions - Nuclear Engineering and Physics
|
UMass Lowell
|
|
| The University of Massachusetts Lowell (UMass Lowell) invites applications for two full-time, open-rank, tenure-track/tenured faculty positions beginning in September 2026. One position is in Nuclear Engineering and the other in Physics and Applied Physics, reflecting a coordinated hire spanning the Francis College of Engineering (FCOE) and the Kennedy College of Sciences (KCS). This joint search is designed to strengthen cross-college collaboration in advanced nuclear energy, fusion, and related emerging technologies.
We seek collaborative scholars whose work advances nuclear engineering, nuclear science, fission and fusion energy systems, or related emerging fields.
Priority areas include AI/ML method development for multiphysics modeling and simulation; the nuclear fuel cycle; reactor safety; advanced sensing, diagnostics, and measurement systems; nuclear medicine; radiation health physics; nuclear fission and fusion materials; and plasma and fusion physics. Candidates whose research involves experimental studies or leverages UMass Lowell’s Radiation Laboratory—including its 1-MW research reactor, 5.5-MV Van de Graaff accelerator, and radiochemistry facilities—or who integrate AI/ML or quantum computing into their research are strongly encouraged to apply.
A strong commitment to teaching at both the undergraduate and graduate levels within the Nuclear Engineering and/or Physics curricula is essential. The role also includes contributing to interdisciplinary teaching at the intersection of science and engineering to help grow technical electives and strengthen the broader nuclear science and engineering curriculum while supporting core departmental needs. Candidates who can support offerings connected to Chemical Engineering, Radiological Sciences and Medical Physics, or related fields are especially encouraged to apply. |

Extension Assistant Professor - Biodiversity Conservation
|
UMass Amherst
|
|
| The Department of Environmental Conservation at the University of Massachusetts Amherst invites applications for a full-time Extension faculty position at the rank of Extension Assistant Professor. We are looking for a candidate who will develop an integrated research and extension program in Biodiversity Conservation in which academic research is integrated with educational programs, resources, tools and/or technologies that meet the needs of key stakeholders such as landowners, municipal officials, community leaders, conservation organizations, government agencies, natural resource professionals, and policy-makers. |

Assistant Professor - Soft Matter/Statistical Physics Theory
|
UMass Amherst
|
|
| The Department of Physics at the University of Massachusetts Amherst invites applications for a tenure-track, academic year, faculty position in theoretical or computational physics in the area of soft matter, statistical physics, or biomaterials. The department has a vibrant, collaborative group of faculty working in these areas, both theory and experiment. We seek candidates with an ambitious research plan who will complement existing strength in soft and bioinspired matter, statistical physics, and quantum matter, foster new collaborations, and take advantage of the broad research activity of our campus in soft materials. |
