| 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. |
