Diversity Statement We welcome applicants from all backgrounds and communities, and in particular those currently underrepresented in the Engineering sector.

The successful applicant is expected to pursue research that makes fundamental contributions to their field, while also addressing real-world challenges with practical relevance - potentially working across disciplines and with a broad range of funders including industry. Applicants should demonstrate how their work complements existing strengths within the School, or brings new and strategically aligned research directions. Consideration will also be given to alignment with the University's Research Technology Platforms and established research infrastructure. We are especially interested in candidates whose work can leverage or contribute to the School's collaborative, translational, and industrially engaged research environment.

For an Assistant Professor appointment, you must be able to demonstrate the capability to establish an independent research activity, which has the ambition and potential to become internationally leading. If appointed as an Assistant Professor, you will be appointed for a probationary period (usually five years) during which you will be given a reduced teaching and administration load to enable you to establish your research group. Successful completion of probation will coincide with promotion to a permanent Associate Professor position. For an Associate Professor appointment, you will have already established a high-quality independent research activity and have been awarded substantial research funding from external sources, while having experience in successful delivery of teaching activities. At either level, you will initiate, develop and deliver high quality research, publish top-tier journal papers and demonstrate the potential for impact from your research. You will also engage with higher education pedagogy and be willing to develop novel teaching methods, embracing changes in teaching technology and expectations.
