Overview Multiple, Tenured/Tenure-track Faculty Positions in Microelectronics Design and Nanoscale Engineering at Indiana University

Indiana University Bloomington (IUB) is engaged in a multi-year initiative to expand research activities in microelectronics design and nanoscale engineering. The Luddy School of Informatics, Computing, and Engineering invites applications for multiple tenured and tenure-track positions at the assistant, associate, or full professor rank to begin in the Fall of 2026. Appointments will be in the Intelligent Systems Engineering department, or other departments such as Computer Science and Informatics.

We welcome applicants in all areas of microelectronics and nanoscale engineering. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:

Areas of Interest

Low-power microelectronics

Wide-bandgap semiconductors

RF, millimeter-wave, analog, mixed-signal, and digital integrated circuits

Optoelectronics and photonics

Neuromorphic computing, artificial intelligence and machine learning

Quantum and 2D materials technologies & systems

Micro and nanoelectromechanical systems (MEMS/NEMS)

Electromagnetics and energy conversion

Radiation-tolerant devices, circuits, and systems

Sensor systems

Heterogeneous integrated circuits and advanced packaging

Reconfigurable, adaptive, and soft nanomaterials

Nanomembranes and nanodevices

Computational and data-driven modeling for nanomaterials discovery and design

We encourage applications from scholars who apply interdisciplinary perspectives across a variety of these domains and complement existing strengths within the department on radiation effects, reliable microelectronics design, security, trust, nanomedicine, nanobiotechnology, and nanophotonics.

These 10-month appointments would ideally start August 1, 2026, although an earlier or later start date is negotiable.

Responsibilities Tenured/tenure track faculty at Indiana University Bloomington are expected to substantially contribute to the overall academic excellence of their department by developing and/or maintaining a robust research portfolio including pursuing and obtaining major extramural research funding to conduct cutting-edge research both as a corresponding principal investigator and a collaborating investigator; teaching and mentoring undergraduate and/or graduate students as designated by the department chairperson; and actively providing service within the department, school and university alongside active engagement with the profession and/or the community.

These positions are located on the campus of Indiana University, Bloomington (IUB) in Bloomington, Indiana, and successful candidates are expected to work on the IUB campus to allow full engagement with the department, school, campus, and community. Indiana University bases its tenure and promotion recommendations upon performance in the three areas of research, teaching, and service. All individuals hired through this initiative are expected to excel in research and provide strong performance in teaching and service.
