Assistant Professor of Structural Engineering
Civil, Construction, and Environmental Engineering

Location: San Diego
Open Date: 
              Oct 06, 2024
            

Description
The Department of Civil, Construction and Environmental Engineering at San Diego State University (SDSU) invites applications for a tenure-track, Assistant Professor position in Structural Engineering, with a focus in quantitative structural reliability, risk assessment and physics-informed predictive sciences. Emphasis is placed on uncertainty quantification analysis to support the integration of technological solutions in structural design and enhance community resilience of civil infrastructure systems against both single and cascading hazards. Resilient, smart and connected communities must consider the interaction among risk/uncertainty management and physics-based modeling, and performance optimization over complex interdisciplinary multi-objectives, including human factors, able to address future challenges related to climate change and natural hazards, population growth, and optimal life-cycle performance. The future of civil infrastructure systems in the face of evolving hazards may enable cross-campus interdisciplinary collaborations with faculty in other departments and colleges at SDSU.  

Qualifications
Applicants should have a demonstrated record of excellence and show exceptional promise for high-quality research, teaching, and professional development that could contribute to advancing structural engineering practices and enhance community resilience of systems against both single and cascading hazards, including expertise in: (a) structural reliability and risk assessment seismic analysis; (b) integration of advances in computational modeling and physics-informed analytics; (c) structural assessment with interactive workflows and data-driven rehabilitation processes; (d) hybrid structural testing; (e) performance optimization for complex multi-objective resilient structural systems in light of cascading hazards.SDSU is a large, diverse, urban university with a commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusive excellence, which embraces the teacher-scholar model.
