The UCLA Samueli School of Engineering invites applications for an open Assistant Professor position to begin on July 1, 2025. We welcome applications from outstanding candidates in any subfield of engineering whose research, teaching, and/or mentoring has strong ties to Pacific Islander experiences in the United States. The position is joint with the Asian American Studies Center at UCLA, and builds upon UCLA's commitment to foster an inclusive environment and promote the success of underrepresented students. Applicants for the position must have a demonstrated record of excellence in, or show exceptional promise for, high-quality research, teaching, and professional development.
As part of the Chancellor's Native American and Pacific Islander Bruins Rising Initiative, the Office of the Chancellor and the Executive Vice Chancellor & Provost have sponsored this search in order to recruit exceptional scholars whose research, teaching, scholarship and/or mentoring has strong ties to Pacific Islander experiences in the United States. This search is conducted in partnership between UCLA Samueli and the Asian American Studies Center. Faculty hired through this search are expected to maintain an active affiliation with the Asian American Studies Center and encourage the success of Pacific Islander scholars. In addition, applicants must have a demonstrated record of interest in, and commitment to, the mentorship of and/or outreach to students from underrepresented and underserved populations. The successful candidate will be expected to advance their active mentoring activities and participate in programs that provide research and professional development opportunities for our diverse student body (such as our Center for Excellence in Engineering and Diversity, our Women in Engineering program, and our student organizations listed at https://samueli.ucla.edu/equity-diversity-and-inclusion/). Teaching and service expectations will not exceed those of other faculty positions.
UCLA and the Samueli School of Engineering are firmly committed to the principles of equity, diversity, and inclusion. Therefore, we ask each applicant to submit a statement that addresses their past efforts and future plans to advance equity, diversity, and inclusion in their scholarship, teaching, and service. The application should contain the following documents: 1) letter of interest, 2) a curriculum vita, 3) a statement of research interests, 4) the aforementioned diversity statement, 5) evidence of teaching excellence, 6) reference check authorization form, and 7) a list of 3-5 reference contacts. Letters of recommendation will be solicited from references following an initial screening review. To ensure full consideration, the online application should be submitted online through https://recruit.apo.ucla.edu/JPF09749 by December 1, 2024. After the initial review date, new applications will be considered only at the discretion of the search committee.
Applicants must have an earned PhD by the date of hire in a field related to one of the Engineering Departments: Bioengineering, Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, Civil and Environmental Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical and Computer Engineering, Material Science and Engineering, and Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering. The faculty appointment will be made to a particular Department within Samueli Engineering, as appropriate to the candidate's research background and interests.

The University of California is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer.

The University of California is committed to creating and maintaining a community dedicated to the advancement, application, and transmission of knowledge and creative endeavors through academic excellence, where all individuals who participate in University programs and activities can work and learn together in a safe and secure environment, free of violence, harassment, bullying and other demeaning behavior, discrimination, exploitation, or intimidation. With this commitment as well as a commitment to addressing all forms of academic misconduct, UCLA conducts targeted employment reference checks for finalists to whom departments or other hiring units would like to extend formal offers of appointment into Academic Senate faculty positions. The targeted employment reference checks involve contacting the finalists' current and prior places of employment to ask whether there have been substantiated findings of misconduct that would violate the University's Faculty Code of Conduct. To implement this process, UCLA requires all applicants for Academic Senate faculty positions to complete, sign, and upload the form entitled 'Authorization to Release Information' into RECRUIT as part of their application. If the applicant does not include the signed authorization to release information with the application materials, the application will be considered incomplete. As with any incomplete application, the application will not receive further consideration. Although all applicants for faculty recruitments must complete the entire application, only finalists (i.e., those to whom the department or other hiring unit would like to extend a formal offer) considered for Academic Senate faculty positions will be subject to targeted employment reference checks.
