Tenure-Track Assistant Professor
Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE), together with the Schwarzman College of Computing (SCC) at MIT in Cambridge, MA, seeks candidates for a tenure‑track Assistant Professor position beginning July 1 2026 or on a mutually agreed date thereafter.
We seek candidates who can make foundational contributions at the intersection of computing and one of two domains: (i) ecosystem and biodiversity modeling, such as computational tools for conservation planning, species and ecosystem monitoring, and sustainable agriculture, or (ii) sustainable infrastructure and urban systems, such as AI‑augmented planning for electrification, renewable integration, and climate‑resilient energy and water systems. In both cases we are interested in candidates who are advancing the domain through the use and development of modern AI and machine learning techniques.
Shared Appointment The successful candidate will have a shared appointment in both the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE) and the Schwarzman College of Computing (SCC) in either the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS) or the Institute for Data, Systems, and Society (IDSS), depending on best fit.
Responsibilities
Faculty duties include teaching at the undergraduate and graduate levels, advising students, conducting original scholarly research, and developing course materials at the graduate and undergraduate levels.
Teach in both the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering and educational programs of SCC.
Normal teaching load is two subjects per year.
Qualifications
PhD degree in civil and environmental engineering, mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, biological and bioengineering, electrical engineering or computer science, earth science, computing, ecology, environmental biology, or a related science or engineering field.
A PhD is required by the start of employment.
Compensation The salary range for a 9‑month academic appointment at the entry‑level Assistant Professor rank (excluding summer salary) is $140,000 – $150,000. The pay offered will be based on factors such as the scope and responsibilities of the position, the candidate’s work experience and education/training, internal peer equity, and applicable legal requirements.
Application Process
Employment is contingent upon the completion of a satisfactory background check, including verification of any finding of misconduct (or pending investigation) from prior employers.
Applications should include curriculum vitae, research statement, and a teaching and mentoring plan.
Provide the names and contact information of three reference letter writers who should upload their letters of recommendation by the application deadline.
Submit online applications to https://school-of-engineering-faculty-search.mit.edu/cee-scc. Applications must be completed by December 1 2025 for full consideration.
