Lecturer or Senior Lecturer in Engineering AI (Teaching & Research)

About the Role
The School of Engineering & Materials Science (SEMS) is home to the Centre for Intelligent Transport (CIT), which combines complementary strengths in Mechanical and Aeronautical Engineering, Power Systems, Robotics and AI, Digital Design and Manufacturing, and Advanced Materials to drive future transport and mobility technologies that better our world. Research within the Centre focuses on various scientific and engineering problems relevant to future transport systems and spans from Green Propulsion, Robotics, and Autonomous vehicles to Future Mobility with Environmental and Climate technologies. Staff within the Centre for Intelligent Transport are active in delivering research-informed education for our undergraduate and postgraduate students in these broad areas. In REF2021, SEMS was ranked 7th overall and 2nd for the quality of our research outputs.

We are looking for world-leading researchers in the engineering AI area able to complement and expand our engineering AI research and teaching. We are particularly interested in staff whose research aligns with artificial intelligence and optimisation in future transport.
