Position Description
The Electrical and Computer Engineering Department ( https://engineering.ucsc.edu/departments/electrical-and-computer-engineering ) at the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) invites applications for an Assistant Professor position in the area of Sustainable Power Engineering. The Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at UC Santa Cruz aims to achieve engineering discoveries that benefit humankind through a combination of curiosity, open-mindedness, and inclusiveness. We aim to provide undergraduate and graduate students with inspiration and quality education, believing that rigor, creativity, and excitement should be part of the Electrical and Computer Engineering curriculum. Our Electrical Engineering undergraduate program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET. The faculty for this position could teach courses in device physics, semiconductors, microelectronics, integrated circuits, solid-state electronics, etc. Applicants will be sought that have knowledge and research interests in the areas of power devices, power semiconductors, generation, transmission, distribution, power electronics, more specific examples include energy storage, microgrids, HVDC and system protection. Particular consideration will be given to candidates with research interests aligned with the broader University commitment to climate change mitigation, clean power and sustainability. The successful candidate could also work with existing faculty in semiconductor materials, power electronics, motor drives, power systems, and electronic circuits.
UC Santa Cruz values diversity, equity, and inclusion and is committed to hiring faculty who will work to support these values. UC Santa Cruz is a Minority-serving Institution (MSI) with a high proportion of first-in-family students. To be considered, candidates must demonstrate an understanding of the barriers facing women, people of color, and other groups underrepresented in engineering, as well as clearly articulate their experience and future plans to promote equity and inclusion in teaching, mentoring, and research. Efforts supporting equity and inclusion at UC Santa Cruz will be recognized as important during the merit review and promotion process. The selected candidate will receive a start-up package that includes funding in support of furthering Diversity, Equity and Inclusion efforts.
The successful candidate is expected to enact a research program, advise PhD and MS students in their research area, obtain external funding, develop and teach courses within the undergraduate and graduate curriculum, perform university, public, and professional service, and be able to work with students, faculty, and staff from a wide range of social and cultural backgrounds. The successful candidate will play a key role in research, teaching, and service with the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department, interacting with its faculty, students, and staff.
