About The Position

The University of North Texas College of Engineering is hiring a full professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering as part of a 13-position, cross-college faculty cluster hire. The position focuses on semiconductors, including devices, circuits, and systems. The successful candidate is expected to be a leading member of the Center for Microelectronics in Extreme Environments (CMEE), which manages the UNT cleanroom, and to have a distinguished collaborative research record appropriate for holding the Lupe Murchison Foundation Professorship in Engineering, an endowed faculty position.

Areas of interest include wide-bandgap and ultra-wide-bandgap semiconductor technologies for high-power, high-frequency, and extreme-environment applications; micro/nanoelectronic device design and fabrication; advanced packaging and heterogeneous integration; analog and mixed-signal circuits for AI hardware, RF/mmWave devices, and next-generation wireless front ends; and integrated device-circuit-system design for computing, communications, sensing, and other emerging technologies. The cluster collaborates with the Department of Materials Science and Engineering and the Department of Physics in the College of Science.

The appointee will teach undergraduate and graduate courses, mentor graduate students and trainees, foster interdisciplinary collaborations, and contribute service to the university, profession, and broader research community. The role may involve conducting research on, working on, or having the ability to access critical organizational infrastructure; the employee must maintain the security and integrity of infrastructure related to the role. The position is based at the University of North Texas in Denton, Texas. Work schedule varies based on assignment.
