Eindhoven, Nederland TU Eindhoven Voltijd

**Job description**:
**The Research Group Concrete Structures**
Concrete Structures is one out of four research groups in the unit SED, next to the groups of Applied Mechanics, Steel and Aluminium Structures, and Sustainable Structural Design. The concrete group’s research lines consist of 3D Concrete Printing (3DCP) and Sustainment of Concrete Structures, with a shared/common interest on sustainability.

The Concrete Structures group at TU/e is highly interdisciplinary, combining principles of materials science, structural engineering, and advanced manufacturing technologies. Both research lines are dedicated to pushing the boundaries of structural engineering through cutting-edge research and collaboration with industry partners, striving to develop sustainable, efficient, and resilient concrete structures for the future. The research activities are supported by the SED laboratory, equipped to test structural elements, components, and large scale systems under different conditions, and houses large
- and small-scale robotic facilities and 3D printers.

Our way of working is systemic, integrating research on innovative design methods, manufacturing techniques and material development. Far-reaching innovation is our goal to accelerate a transition towards higher construction productivity and a lower environmental footprint.

The newly appointed professor of Structural Design of Concrete Structures will lead the research group and professionally holds a strong CV on structural design of concrete structures. We expect the newly appointed professor to initiate cross-over collaborations with other research groups in the unit of SED and with the other units in the department acting in the disciplines of architecture, building physics, building information modelling, materials and urbanism as well as with impactful industrial partners.

**Our expectations**
As a full professor, you hold a strong profile in research. You initiate new research ideas, based on the profile of the research group, and you write research proposals to acquire (inter)national funding, with support of the research group and the departmental research support team. You coach the members of the research group in writing research proposals. You supervise master and PhD students in the position of chair of a master graduation supervision committee and in the position of promotor, respectively.

And you participate in, or encourage activities for, demonstrating the impact of newly developed technology or other initiatives related to bridging the gap from academia to industry, including support of entrepreneurship, like start-ups coming from your own students.

Finally, we expect leadership skills. For us this means taking responsibility for your own tasks and those of your research group, taking your role in supervising students and assisting/supporting colleagues, and participating in managerial tasks of the department.

**Job requirements**:

- Commitment to solving the environmental and productivity challenges in concrete structures and the construction industry by innovation, and willingness to push the boundaries of structural design and assessment of concrete structures through innovative research, education, and impactful industry collaborations.
- Passion for modern methods of construction and willingness to build on the existing research line that explores digital fabrication, such as 3D concrete printing, to improve efficiency and reduce labour costs, from a structural design perspective.
- Sustainability is at the core of your research, focusing on creating environmental friendly concrete structures that reduce carbon emissions and resource consumption.
- Motivated researcher, with a PhD in structural engineering, preferably concrete structures, or a comparable domain.
- Ability to conduct high quality academic research, reflected in demonstratable outputs.
- Ability to teach, demonstrated by experience or assistance in teaching. Informed vision on teaching and learning within your own discipline.
- Strong cooperation skills and ability to work in an interdisciplinary team.
- Effective communication and leadership skills, including coaching and mentoring of students and staff, leading a project or chairing a group.
- Excellent (written and verbal) proficiency in English.

**Conditions of employment**:
A meaningful job in a dynamic and ambitious university, in an interdisciplinary setting and within an international network. You will work on a beautiful, green campus within walking distance of the central train station. In addition, we offer you:

- A full-time position (0.8-1.0 FTE) in a dynamic and ambitious university with a broad (inter) national network.
- Access to first class laboratory facilities, including laboratory on structural design, acoustics, materials, building physics, BIM (VR/AR) and robotics, including large scale 3D print facilities.
- The opportunity to focus your career on education, research or impact. You can
