Job description
As part of the growth of the Department of Engineering, we are seeking applications for a Senior Lecturer in Mechanical Engineering with research in advanced multi-scale simulation and modeling in areas such as solid mechanics, mechanics of materials / structures, continuum mechanics, dynamical systems , and energy materials.
We are creating a vibrant Department that looks to lead innovation in education and research at one of the world's leading universities. To support our ambition, King's is investing in new multi-million pound teaching and research laboratories in excess of 3000 sqm for the Department at heart of its Strand campus.
In moving our ambition forward, we are appointing academics to join us in shaping the future of education and research for King's Engineering.
Our courses incorporate an innovative pedagogy involving integrated design and project-based teaching while embedding team-working, leadership and system thinking into our students to prepare them for their future careers. It is essential that applicants have the enthusiasm and commitment needed to ensure the success of these programs.
We welcome applicants who will build on their track record by actively pursuing new research opportunities and collaborations within the Department and externally. We are developing a strong research profile with current activities in mechatronics, sensors, signal and information processing, control, and wireless communications.
Recent appointments have broadened our portfolio to include manufacturing, energy, systems engineering, and heat transfer. Our research links extend across the College and beyond. King's is part of the London Center for Nanotechnology with shared research and facilities between King's, UCL and Imperial. All of these foster an active, vibrant, and collaborative research environment.
