Invitation for faculty position applications

UC Berkeley is one of the world’s leading public universities, and Berkeley Engineering consistently ranks among the top engineering programs nationwide—public or private. Situated in the heart of California’s tech industry, Berkeley Engineering fosters a vibrant and growing community of faculty and students and maintains strong partnerships with National Laboratories, NASA, UC San Francisco, Silicon Valley, and beyond. Our commitment to advancing technologies that improve society and quality of life is reflected in both our people and our environment. We offer dynamic, interdisciplinary, hands-on education; challenge conventional thinking; and champion collaboration, creativity and innovation in research and teaching.

At the core of Berkeley Engineering’s mission are values that drive us to educate inclusive leaders and create knowledge equitably in service of a diverse society. Our excellence can only be fully realized through faculty, students and staff who share our commitment to these values. As a nationally and internationally recognized leader in engineering education, we seek candidates whose dedication to mentorship and service complements their excellence in research and teaching. We especially welcome those with a demonstrated commitment to equity and inclusion. UC Berkeley is an Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander-Serving Institution (AANAPISI) and is working toward becoming a Hispanic-Serving Institution (HSI), reflecting the diversity of California’s population. Resources are available to pursue activities that help accelerate our efforts to achieve greater inclusion and belonging in engineering, with the full backing of the College. Examples of ongoing programming at Berkeley Engineering to promote equal opportunity and belonging are available on our website.

Berkeley Engineering is also committed to addressing family needs, including dual career couples, single parents and those who provide elder care. For more information, please visit the UC Berkeley Office for Faculty Equity & Welfare.

We invite applications to open faculty positions in Berkeley Engineering and strongly encourage a wide range of qualified candidates to apply.
