Location: Philadelphia, PA
Open Date: Sep 25, 2026
Deadline:
The Department of Electrical and Systems
Engineering is soliciting applications for multiple
tenured or tenure-track positions at all levels. Candidates must
hold a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering,
Systems Engineering, or a related area.
The department seeks individuals with exceptional promise for, or
proven record of, research achievement, who will take a position of
international leadership in defining their field of study and who
will excel in undergraduate and graduate education. Leadership in
cross-disciplinary and multi-disciplinary collaborations is of
particular interest. We are seeking exceptional candidates in all
areas of electrical and systems engineering, with emphasis on
Decision Systems, Artificial Intelligence, and Computer
Engineering. We are particularly interested in AI methods that
strongly connect to real-world application domains (e.g., energy
systems, transportation, healthcare) or directly inform operational
or strategic decisions in complex systems. In computer engineering,
we are particularly interested in digital design, computer
architecture, and programming systems that permit the joint
optimization of hardware and software.
We are especially interested in candidates with a diversity of
experiences and perspectives. Penn Engineering strongly supports
dual career couples, and we welcome and encourage inquiries about
dual career assistance (for academic and non-academic
opportunities) at an early stage of the recruitment process.
Interested persons should submit an online application and include
curriculum vitae, research, and teaching statements, and at least
three confidential letters of recommendation.
Review of applications will begin on December 1, 2026.
