Applications for two tenure-track faculty positions from individuals with
interests in the general areas of remote sensing, unmanned aerospace
vehicles (UAV), and the Global Positioning System (GPS) are sought. The
Department anticipates hiring at the assistant professor level; however,
associate and full professor level will also be considered for exceptional
candidates, particularly if they strengthen the Department in diversity.
We are primarily interested in candidates with expertise in airborne
platform instrumentation, avionics, flight controls, system engineering
and their application to our three aforementioned focus areas. Individuals
with interdisciplinary interests or who combine scientific applications
with the above technological areas are especially valued. Applicants
should show strong promise in undergraduate and graduate teaching,
research, and mentoring Ph.D. students. A Ph.D. degree in an appropriate
engineering or science discipline is required and some postdoctoral or
comparable industry experience is desired.

The Department of Aerospace Engineering Sciences has 24 faculty,
approximately 175 graduate students and 370 undergraduate students, and is
located in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains on a beautiful 800-acre
campus. Faculty research expertise includes aerodynamics and fluid
mechanics, astrodynamics and remote sensing, GPS technology and
applications, atmospheric and oceanic sciences, computational physics,
dynamics and control, bioastronautics, space flight hardware design, and
structures and materials. Research expenditures total about $10 million
each year. Please explore http://aerospace.colorado.edu/ for details about
the Department and our program.

Applicants should send a current CV, one-page statements of research and
teaching interests, dates available, and names of four references to Ms
Patti Gassaway, AES, 429 UCB, University of Colorado, Boulder, CO
80309-0429. Review of applications begins on January 15, 2003, continuing
until the positions are filled.

The University of Colorado is committed to diversity and equality in
education and employment.
