The Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering (MAE) at Princeton University invites applications for a tenured Associate or Full Professor in aerospace engineering and sciences. We welcome applications addressing grand challenges in aerospace that build new synergies or establish new directions, especially in emerging space-related research areas. Applicants must hold a Ph.D. in engineering or a related subject in the sciences and mathematics and have a demonstrated record of excellence in research.

We strongly encourage applications from members of groups historically underrepresented in mechanical and aerospace engineering. We seek creative and enthusiastic candidates with the background and skills who can bridge the disciplines and research initiatives in MAE, the School of Engineering and Applied Science and the University beyond. To ensure full consideration, applications should be received by January 15, 2025.
