teaching and service record will be considered at all levels. We are seeking a highly motivated and interdisciplinary researcher with a strong background and experience in chemical and environmental engineering, with an interest in pursuing solutions to global
grand challenges. The successful candidate is expected to launch and maintain an independent, externally funded research program within the Chemical and Environmental Engineering Department, with a preference for expertise in the broader field of water quality
engineering. Multiple, campus-wide collaborative initiatives are available for further leverage, including the College of Engineering’s Center for Environmental Research and Technology (CE-CERT), the Center for Agriculture and Food Enterprise (CAFÉ), and
UCR’s new School of Public Policy. <u></u><u></u></p>

and service loads of the University Senate. Specifically, candidates should be able to teach chemical and environmental engineering courses at undergraduate and graduate levels. We seek candidates who are firmly committed to both undergraduate and graduate
education, and who will engage in a rigorous research program. Additionally, the Department intends to further develop a water technology center that will make UCR the leader in novel, sustainable technological approaches for water use, recovery, and reuse
for Southern California and beyond, and this hire will play a crucial role in this undertaking.<u></u><u></u></p>
