Tenured or Tenure-Track Cluster of Assistant, Associate, or Full Professor Positions in Water R

Location

This role is in-person at North Campus Edmonton.

The Faculty of Engineering at the University of Alberta invites applications for a faculty position as part of a coordinated cluster of five positions focusing on infrastructure resilience, environmental sustainability, and responsible resource development. The cluster brings together expertise in Geotechnical Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Water Resources Engineering, and Mining Engineering to address challenges at the interfaces of earth systems, water resources, and the built environment.

Faculty hired through this cluster are expected to engage in cross‑disciplinary collaboration, joint supervision of students, and development of integrated research initiatives across these themes, leveraging advanced sensing, data science, AI/ML, and digital tools.

A full‑time, tenure‑track Assistant, Associate, or Full Professor position in Water Resources Engineering is available. The successful candidate will develop and teach courses in Water Resources and Environmental Engineering and pursue research in surface water hydrology, hydrologic modelling, cold regions hydrology, hydroclimatic extremes, socio‑hydrology, and watershed‑scale contaminant transport. Candidates are also expected to develop and sustain externally‑funded, collaborative research programs that strengthen partnerships with the Geotechnical Centre, the Water Research Centre, and the Centre for Computational Geostatistics, as well as industry partners.

These positions are part of the University of Alberta’s priority to build a diverse faculty; thus, candidates from underrepresented groups are strongly encouraged to apply.
