The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE) at Vanderbilt University invites applications for a tenure-track faculty assistant professor position in environmental engineering beginning Fall 2026. The area of specialization is at the intersection of energy and environment, including but not limited to nuclear environmental engineering, socio-physical systems, materials for energy and environmental systems, mitigation of environmental and health impacts from energy production and use, and other emerging environmental challenges.

A PhD in environmental engineering, civil engineering or a closely related discipline must be in hand at the time of the appointment.
