POWER/ENERGY

RF/MICROWAVES/ELECTROMAGNETICS

COMMUNICATIONS/SIGNAL PROCESSING

The Department of

Electrical and
Computer Engineering
at the University of Utah

seeks applications to fill one or more tenure-track positions at all levels. Exceptional candidates in all areas
of ECE, including interdisciplinary areas, are invited to apply. We have particular interest in candidates
working in research areas that require expertise in power/energy, RF/microwaves/electromagnetics,
or communications/signal processing. Faculty responsibilities include developing and maintaining an
internationally recognized research program, effective classroom teaching at the undergraduate and graduate
levels, and professional service.
Fueled in part by strong support from the State of Utah, the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering
has experienced significant recent growth. Our graduate program rankings in the past five years have increased
at one of the fastest rates of any program in the nation, and we expect our rapid ascent to continue. The
department currently has 29 tenured and tenure-track faculty, ~$10M in annual research expenditures and
~90 doctoral students. Current ECE faculty have founded or co-founded 15 companies, part of the unique
entrepreneurial spirit at the University of Utah, which for two years running has spun off more startup
companies than any other school in the nation. The department attracts world-class students and faculty in
part because of Salt Lake City's outstanding quality-of-life and natural beauty. Seven world-class ski resorts are
within a one hour drive, and Utah has five national parks.
Applicants should apply online at http://utah.peopleadmin.com/postings/18983. Résumés with names
and contact information for at least three references, a statement of research, and a teaching statement should
be included with the online application. Applications will be reviewed starting December 1, 2012, and will be
accepted until the positions are filled. Applicants must hold a Ph.D. by the time of appointment.
The University of Utah is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action employer and educator. Minorities, women, and
persons with disabilities are strongly encouraged to apply. Veterans preference. Reasonable accommodations
provided. For additional information: http://www.regulations.utah.edu/humanResources/5-106.html.

backgrounds, and possess a strong commitment to improving access to higher education for historically
underrepresented students.
