The Department of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Massachusetts Lowell seeks a visionary leader for the position of department chair. The new chair will have the opportunity to lead the next stages of academic and research development and advance the reputation of the department. The appointment is expected to be at the level of Associate or Full... Professor with tenure. The Department of Biomedical Engineering is located in UMass Lowell's Francis College of Engineering, a dynamic, growing college that prepares scientists and professionals in a wide range of engineering areas. The department currently has 11 faculty, including five new energetic and engaged tenure-track faculty that have been hired in the last three years. The new chair will contribute to the planned growth of the department and the hiring of new teaching and tenure-track faculty.

The department offers undergraduate and doctoral degrees in biomedical engineering, with concentrations in medical device development, cell and tissue engineering, and biomechanics. Educational strategies include classes taught by highly-qualified faculty, experiential learning, and hands-on laboratory experiences.

The chair's mission is to inspire and promote the academic and intellectual growth of the department, to ensure effective use of resources to meet the college goals, and to promote student success. An ambitious expansion of the research enterprise is a key goal for the new chair. The University of Massachusetts Lowell (UML) is a Carnegie Doctoral High Research (RU/H) university ranked in the top tier of US News' National Universities. The department currently has strong collaborations with the University of Massachusetts Chan Medical School and the Massachusetts Medical Device Development (M2D2) Center.

The department’s research labs were completely renovated in 2019, and the university recently acquired state-of-the-art vivarium and animal imaging facilities with space for additional research labs. The department and college have leadership teams that support the chair in carrying out the academic mission of the department. This support includes two associate chairs, one each for the undergraduate and graduate curriculum needs, and administrative assistant and lab technician support.

UMass Lowell is situated in the heart of New England on the banks of the Merrimack River, a beautiful and culturally diverse area and birthplace of America’s industrial revolution. Cotton mills in Lowell, the only city to be awarded national park status by the U.S. National Park Service, opened in 1814 and the city has been a hub of invention and innovation ever since. UML continues that legacy of innovation throughout the campus. Its location 30 miles northwest of Boston offers unsurpassed enrichment of every type including fine arts, dining, historical sites, and of course sports! Just north of Lowell, the grandeur of New Hampshire’s White mountains unfolds not far from the storied ski lodges of Vermont.

The University of Massachusetts Lowell serves the multicultural population of the Commonwealth, and the College of Engineering has been nationally recognized for its commitment to diversity by the American Society for Engineering Education (https://www.uml.edu/Engineering/).
