The successful applicant will have a strong foundation in hydrodynamics and control of surface or sub-surface vessels, marine structures and materials, electrified vessel power and propulsion systems, or instrumentation and ocean observation systems.

The successful candidate will have demonstrated potential to form a research program that combines mastery in underpinning fundamentals such as fluid mechanics, dynamics and control with application of recent advances in artificial intelligence, machine learning and multidisciplinary design optimization for the synthesis of next-generation autonomous ocean and marine systems.

The successful applicant will:

• be appointed to the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the rank of Assistant Professor;
• expand the faculty’s portfolio of industry and defense research partnerships and interface ocean and marine technology innovations with regional and national initiatives to grow a blue economy;
• contribute to the design and delivery of course based curricula for the Mechanical Engineering undergraduate and graduate degree programs.
