The Wallace H. Coulter Department of Biomedical
Engineering of the Georgia Tech College of Engineering and Emory University School of
Medicine (Atlanta, GA) is consistently ranked in the top 3 BME departments by US News and World Report. We benefit from a vibrant
community of scientists, engineers, and clinicians and are strongly supported
by both institutions for continued significant growth in faculty, research and
educational programs. Building on outstanding hires over the past years (https://www.bme.gatech.edu/bme/faculty), we
are currently expanding our faculty with multiple tenure-track positions
available at all ranks, including at the senior (endowed chair) level.
For 2019-2020, we invite truly
exceptional candidates to apply for positions in all areas of biomedical engineering,
especially emerging areas that would complement existing strengths within the
Department.
Additionally, we invite senior
applicants for the Wallace H. Coulter
Distinguished Faculty Chair in Biomedical Engineering at Georgia Tech.
Successful candidates will be senior faculty with a demonstrated capability to
(i) lead a highly impactful and translational research program, (ii) provide
outstanding mentorship to trainees and junior faculty, and (iii) enrich and
engage in a collegial Departmental environment. Candidates must have an
internationally recognized track record of discovery and research development, and
be eligible for appointment as a full professor with tenure to continue their
leadership in contemporary engineering and innovation.
Located in Atlanta, The Wallace
H. Coulter Department of Biomedical Engineering at Georgia Tech and Emory
University has a student body of 1,200 undergraduates, 260 graduate students,
and 70 primary and 73 program faculty. Since its beginning, the unique
partnership between two of the nation's leading public and private entities has
