Job Category: Faculty - Tenure Stream (continuing)
Faculty/Division: Faculty of Applied Science & Engineering
Department: Department of Chemical Engineering & Applied Chemistry
Campus: St. George (Downtown Toronto)
Description:
The Department of Chemical Engineering & Applied Chemistry in the Faculty of Applied Science & Engineering at the University of Toronto invites applications for up to two full-time tenure stream positions in the area of sustainable chemical engineering. The appointments will be at the rank of Assistant Professor, with an expected start date of July 1, 2023.
Applicants are expected to have a PhD degree in chemical, environmental or materials engineering or in applied chemistry or a related area at the time of appointment or soon after. We seek candidates with expertise in sustainable chemical, energy, and materials at scale and whose research and teaching complement and enhance our existing departmental strengths. There are several areas of interest including but not limited to batteries, energy storage, and fuel cells; carbon capture, utilization, and storage; catalysis and photocatalysis; decarbonization of energy systems; decentralized manufacturing; fuels, chemicals and materials from sustainable feedstocks; industrial biomanufacturing of chemicals, energy, and materials; renewable hydrogen production; and waste valorization and resource recovery.
The successful candidate will be expected to initiate and continuously lead an outstanding, independent, innovative, externally funded research program of international caliber, and teach in the chemical engineering curriculum at the undergraduate and post-graduate level. We will prioritize candidates who demonstrate the ability to sustain and lead innovative research that will advance the global frontiers of knowledge in the field, rather than only their specialization area. Collaborative and inter-disciplinary research and collegial interaction will be important elements in success. Eligibility to register as a Professional Engineer in Ontario is an asset.
Excellence in research is evidenced primarily by publications or forthcoming publications in leading journals or conferences, the submitted research statement, presentations at significant conferences, awards and accolades, and strong endorsements by referees of high standing.
Evidence of excellence in teaching will be demonstrated by the statement of teaching philosophy, teaching accomplishments, and a teaching dossier including sample syllabi and teaching evaluations or other evidence of superior performance in teaching-related activities, as well as strong endorsements. Other teaching related activities can include performance as a teaching assistant or course instructor, experience leading successful workshops or seminars, student mentorship, or excellent conference presentations or posters.
Equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) are essential to academic excellence and to the success of our department. Evidence of a commitment to EDI will be demonstrated by a statement describing views, experiences and/or plans furthering EDI via teaching mentorship, outreach, and/or other activities.
Salary will be commensurate with qualifications and experience.

Applicants must submit a cover letter; a curriculum vitae; a statement of research vision with a five to ten year horizon (three to five pages); up to three sample publications; a teaching dossier including a statement of teaching philosophy and interests, sample course syllabi, and teaching evaluations, or evidence of superior performance in other teaching-related activities as listed above; and an EDI statement (as outlined above).
