Project Engineer
Department: Mechanical Engineering
Date Created: September 22, 2009
The Department of Mechanical Engineering is seeking to fill an
opening for a postdoctoral fellow or scientist. This position will entail strong
software design and development skills coupled with knowledge of geometric
modeling and mesh generation. The main tasks of this position is to build a
flexible software system for geometry-representation and mesh generation with a
focus on early-design evaluations as well as supporting complex analyses for a
range of physics/applications. This is a collaborating project between Carnegie
Mellon University and the Naval Research Lab.
Associate Director of Undergraduate Studies
Department: CIT Dean's Office
Date Created: September 3, 2009
The Associate Director for Undergraduate Studies is responsible
for increasing the engineering college student community by engaging in and
optimizing programming from first year to graduation. The Associate Director
advises and counsels first year as well as upper-class undergraduate students
concerning academic issues, with a focus on enhancing undergraduate retention
and increasing student satisfaction and affinity with the College of
Engineering. The Associate Director works closely with the Assistant Dean for
Undergraduate Studies, the Associate Director of Undergraduate Studies and the
departmental undergraduate advisors to smoothly transition first year
engineering students into their major and department.
Post Doctoral Fellow
Department: Institute for Complex Engineered Systems
Date Created: August 27, 2009
Candidates with a PhD degree in mechanical/biomedical engineering or related field with an emphasis in biofluid mechanics, soft tissue mechanics and medical image processing are encouraged to apply. Work entails generating patient-specific models of abdominal aortic aneurysms for medical image processing and finite element analysis. The candidate should have a strong background in medical image segmentation and processing algorithms. The candidate will be involved in a team oriented research project with extensive interaction with physicians; communication and written skills are critical to the successful execution of this project. It is expected that candidates will interact effectively with colleagues in both engineering and medicine and participate in grant proposal writing.
Research Economist
Department: Engineering & Public Policy
Date Created: August 19, 2009
Teaching/Research position in managerial and engineering
economics for innovation Carnegie Mellon's professional masters program in
Engineering & Technology Innovation Management (E&TIM) seeks a Research
Economist to teach and conduct research in the area of economics and innovation.
The applicant for this non-tenure track position should have a background in
applied economics. Responsibilities include teaching a core course in managerial
and engineering economics for engineers, to be offered evenings starting in the
January 2010 spring semester. The course provides masters level students with an
analytical framework to understand factors that shape an industry; students
learn to apply concepts and tools necessary to understand and evaluate
innovation opportunities. The course focuses on fundamental microeconomic
principles typical to a managerial economics course (supply & demand,
elasticities, market power, pricing, demand and cost forecasting) and
engineering economics principles for project planning and analysis. In addition,
one or two fall-semester elective courses are expected. In addition to teaching
in the E&TIM program, the successful applicant will contribute to a research
center studying technology policy issues. A wide variety of applied topics are
possible (e.g., industrial policy, innovation management, energy and the
environment, health and safety, information and computing technologies). A
history of, and enthusiasm for, aggressive grant writing is a plus. Minimum
qualifications for this position include a Ph.D. in Economics, or the
equivalent, as well as teaching experience. Carnegie Mellon University is an
Affirmative Action/ Equal Opportunity employer. We encourage minorities, women,
and individuals with disabilities to apply. Applicants should send a CV, a
teaching statement, a statement and samples of research, and a cover letter to:
Eden Fisher, Department of Engineering and Public Policy, Carnegie Mellon
University, Pittsburgh, PA 15213-3890 Applications received before September 15,
2009, will receive priority.
Research/Prog Analyst
Department: CyLab
Date Created: August 13, 2009
Responsible for helping to develop experimental research
applications and maturing promising research prototypes into usable software
packages for distribution online. Provide consulting services to researchers
relative to software capability.
Principal Research Programmer
Department: CyLab
Date Created: December 1, 2008
Responsible for developing experimental research software and modify/maintaining existing software for the Home Storage Project; provide consulting services to researchers relative to software capability; interact with user community to solicit feedback for improvement.
