The Faculty of Industrial Design Engineering is world-leading in design education and research, integrating design knowledge about people, technology and business into solutions that are desirable, feasible and viable. The Faculty consists of 25 full Professors, 120 faculty members, 120 PhD students and about 2000 Bachelor and Master students. At IDE we believe that by creating insights into people and society, and by developing foresights on how technology can improve our future, we enable designers to be inspirational yet realistic leaders that can move the needle towards a better future.
Job description
The Faculty of Industrial Design Engineering at Delft University of Technology invites applications and nominations for full Professors (m/f) in any of these areas: 1) Advanced Manufacturing, including designing in networked manufacturing systems, digitalisation of manufacturing processes (robots as ’production tools’), designing the engineering workflow (design, engineering, planning, service and maintenance integration based on ICT), and additive manufacturing (3D printing); 2) Circular Product Design, including circular design strategies, such as product life-extension, reuse, remanufacturing and recycling, and consumer attitudes and behaviour related to multiple lifecycle products; 3) Emerging Materials, including designing e.g. with smart materials that can sense and interact with the user, materials containing graphene, and with advanced bio-based plastics; 4) Internet of Things: exploring new opportunities for designing networked products, based on communication technologies and on behavioural knowledge generation technologies that are both fixed and ad hoc, and both wired and wireless. We are seeking candidates (m/f) who are used to setting up new initiatives in multi-disciplinary contexts as they are expected to open up new knowledge spaces on the intersections of emerging technologies.
Requirements
Applicants should have a proven academic track record and are expected to build a strong, externally funded research programme. A doctoral degree is required as well as experience in design or design engineering. A competitive start-up package will be available for the positions.
Conditions of employment
The positions offered are permanent.
TU Delft offers an attractive benefits package, including a flexible work week, free high-speed Internet access from home, and the option of assembling a customised compensation and benefits package (the ’IKA’). Salary and benefits are in accordance with the Collective Labour Agreement for Dutch Universities.
TU Delft sets specific standards for the English competency of its teaching staff. TU Delft offers training to improve English competency.
Inspiring, excellent education is our central aim. If you have less than five years of experience and have not yet obtained your teaching certificate, we allow you up to three years to complete this.
Information and application
Screening of applications will begin in October 2014 and will continue until the positions are filled. The anticipated starting date is as soon as possible. For assistance and other information regarding this position, read more at www.io.tudelft.nl/de or contact Prof. Jo Geraedts, J.M.P.Geraedts@tudelft.nl. Candidates should submit a CV, a research plan, a list of publications and the names and e-mail addresses of at least three international references preferably before October 1st to Mrs. Mandy Tamerus, HR Manager, M.J.M.Tamerus@tudelft.nl. When applying for one of these positions, please refer to vacancy number AT/IO-0690.
