Job Postings
Engineering faculty positions (2) in the biomanufacturing area at the University of Georgia (UGA)
The College of Engineering’s School of Chemical, Materials, and Biomedical Engineering (CMB) at the University of Georgia (UGA) invites applications for two 9-month tenure-track assistant professor positions to begin August 1, 2025. These positions will report directly to the School Chair of CMB, a position currently held on an interim basis by Mark Eiteman.
Advancing biotechnology and biomanufacturing innovations are critical for spurring a circular bioeconomy in the United States to produce sustainable chemicals, materials, and industrial products. Similarly, biomanufacturing of therapeutic cell and gene therapies has the potential to provide novel treatments for diseases and disorders in applications such as regenerative medicine and cancer. The School of Chemical, Materials, and Biomedical Engineering seeks applications from exceptional candidates in all aspects of bio-based manufacturing from production, processing, characterization, and scale-up to downstream processing. Examples of interdisciplinary research fields include cellular engineering, gene editing and therapies, synthetic biology, antibody and protein design and production, biocatalysis and enzyme engineering, bioreactor design, metabolic engineering and fermentation, and other biochemical routes to synthesize platform chemicals, sustainable materials, proteins, biopolymers, and other industrial products from biological resources.
The successful candidate is expected to:
- establish an outstanding, internationally recognized research program,
- foster and establish collaborations and partnerships within and outside the College of Engineering, as well as industry,
- exhibit a strong commitment to teaching excellence at both the undergraduate and graduate levels,
- compete successfully for extramural funding to support research and a companion graduate and postdoctoral training program.
