About the role
The Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering at the University of Bath is seeking to appoint a Lecturer in Biomedical Engineering or Human Augmentation to undertake excellent research and deliver high-quality teaching. We are looking for an outstanding researcher to enhance our portfolio in areas such as implantable and wearable devices, assistive technologies, and neurotechnoloy. We want you to join an expanding and ambitious department, and to shape the technology of the future in a vibrant and inclusive environment.
The University hosts both the Centre for Bioengineering and Biomedical Technologies (CBio) and the Bath Institute for the Augmented Human (IAH) and you will be expected to contribute significantly to the success of either one or both of these exciting new research entities.
About CBio
CBio’s mission is to improve health and wellbeing through world-leading bioengineering research, with a vision to foster and develop transdisciplinary and translatable research that addresses the grand challenges in human health and wellbeing. CBio builds on the strong international reputation of the previous Centre for Biosensors, Bioelectronics and Biodevices (C3Bio), and extends its remit to include ground-breaking research in biomedical technology and bioengineering. This includes emerging strengths in robotics and autonomous systems for healthcare.
About the IAH
The IAH is the University’s newest research Institute, established in 2023, as an innovative and agile leader in Human Augmentation R&D in the UK and Internationally. Our vision is a complete multidisciplinary training and innovation ecosystem that revolutionises the way that humans’ interface, interact, improve, and evolve with technology. The Institute is a unique body of interdisciplinary research focusing on research excellence and developing researchers that have the skills to develop, trial, regulate and deploy human augmentation technologies.
About you
You will have track record in applied Biomedical Engineering and teaching, with the potential to develop a significant research portfolio. In particular, you should ideally have experience (or potential) in research encompassing biomedical engineering and human augmentation technologies - for example neurotechnology or brain-computer interfaces.
You must hold a PhD and an undergraduate degree in Electronic and Electrical Engineering or a very closely related subject. Through your research and teaching, you will be passionate about addressing the global challenges and educating the next generation of engineers.
This role will suit you if you:
Working with us
You will be joining a progressive and thriving academic environment and will benefit from the collaborative and well-established Department and Faculty systems at the University of Bath. This includes a strong mentoring and personal & professional development environment in the Department, and the University’s professional development programme for new lecturers. The lifestyle advantages of working and living in one of the most beautiful and accessible areas in the UK are an added attraction.
