The Department of Biomedical Engineering at The University of Akron invites applications for a talented and dynamic tenure-track Assistant Professor who can establish and execute a vibrant agenda for strategic research and education beginning Fall 2018. Candidates are expected to have demonstrated a strong research record and to establish a nationally recognized and externally funded research program. The successful candidate will have a strong interest, passion, and ability to teach undergraduate courses, supervise M.S. and Ph.D. students, mentor undergraduates in research, and integrate research with teaching at the graduate level.
Members of the faculty in the department pursue a broad research program that spans interdisciplinary experimental and computational research in biomaterials, tissue engineering, biomechanics, signals, and sensors. Our faculty have active collaborations within the university, as well as with physicians and scientists at national and regional institutions, such as the Cleveland Clinic and Northeastern Ohio Medical University. Research of our faculty has been supported by funding from the NSF, NIH, DoD, Veterans Administration, various foundations, and industry.

The Department of Biomedical Engineering has 400 undergraduate students and offers ABET accredited B.S. degrees in Biomedical Engineering, as well as M.S. and Ph.D. degrees. We emphasize experiential learning.



A majority of the undergraduate students participate in our co-operative education programs and are also active in regional and national conferences.
The College of Engineering is actively seeking to increase diversity within the College. Women, under-represented minorities, individuals with disabilities, and veterans are particularly encouraged to apply.
