Assistant/Associate Professor of Electrical Engineering (broad area search)

The Department of Electrical Engineering at Stanford University (http://ee.stanford.edu/) invites applications for a tenure-track faculty appointment at the junior level (Assistant or untenured Associate Professor) in the broadly defined field of electrical and computer engineering. The department is especially interested in candidates in computer architecture, embedded systems, autonomous systems, and energy systems. Priority, however, will be given to the overall originality and promise of the candidate’s work over any specific area of specialization.

Applicants should have an earned Ph.D., evidence of the ability to pursue an independent program of research, a strong commitment to both graduate and undergraduate teaching, and the ability to initiate and conduct research across disciplines. A successful candidate will be expected to teach courses at the graduate and undergraduate levels and to build and lead a team of graduate students in Ph.D. research.

Applications should include a brief research and teaching plan, a detailed resume including a publications list, and the names and email addresses of at least five references.

Applications will be accepted through December 15, 2015.  Apply

Lecturer/Senior Lecturer

The Department of Electrical Engineering at Stanford University invites applications for a Lecturer or Senior Lecturer position depending upon the candidate’s seniority and level of experience. This is a non-tenure line, full-time position that is renewable in subsequent years.

The candidate is expected to organize and coordinate the introductory and core undergraduate courses, along with teaching some subset of them on regular basis (typically teaching four courses during the three quarters of the regular academic year and the summer quarter). Demonstrated competencies include: analog circuits, digital systems, and continuous- and discrete-time signal processing. A strong “hands on” project-based experience is particularly desirable. The candidate is also expected to provide undergraduate student advising and to help coordinate periodic programmatic reviews and the preparation of material thereof.

Applicants should have a strong commitment to and demonstrated aptitude for excellent teaching. All candidates must hold a PhD degree in electrical engineering or a closely related discipline and have a minimum of five (5) years teaching experience at a university or a college with a strong EE program. Further information about the Stanford Department of Electrical Engineering can be found at: http://ee.stanford.edu.

Applications should include a cover letter, curriculum vitae, teaching statement, material relevant to evaluating the applicant’s teaching abilities, and the names of at least three references.

Postdoctoral Fellowship

Stanford University invites applications for the 2015 Nano- and Quantum Science and Engineering Postdoctoral Fellowships. We seek candidates with research interests at the interface between engineering and physical sciences, in particular in the area of nano- and quantum science and engineering. We are especially looking for candidates who will build a clear bridge between physical sciences and engineering applications.

Candidates are encouraged to contact faculty members from the participating departments (Electrical Engineering, Applied Physics, Materials Science, and Physics) to discuss possible research areas prior to submitting an application. The initial appointment includes 2 years of support with an annual salary of approximately $60,000 and benefits.

Applicants should submit the following online at https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/6478:

• Cover Letter
• Curriculum Vitae
• two page Research Statement
• Publication List
• three Reference Letters (to be submitted by the reference writers at https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/6478).

Applications and supporting credentials must be submitted online at https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/6478. For queries, please contact Teresa Nguyen (teresan@ee.stanford.edu).
