but are not limited to, neural interfacing, neural prostheses,
functional neural stimulation, and neural imaging.



Successful candidates will be affiliated with the newly-established
Center for Neuroengineering, and will have their tenure home in an
academic department. Such candidates are expected to establish a
vigorous, externally-funded research program,  have a genuine
commitment to undergraduate and graduate education, and to
collaborative program development.



The requirements for these positions include an earned doctorate in an
appropriate discipline at the time of the appointment and outstanding
academic and research records. Rank and salary will be commensurate
with the qualifications and experience of the candidate.



Review of applications will commence immediately and will continue
until the positions are filled. Submit applications, including
curriculum vitae, statement of research and teaching interests, and
names of three references to ITN Neuroengineering Faculty Search
Committee at cne AT umn DOT edu.  The applications should also be
simultaneously registered with personal information on-line at
http://employment.umn.edu. Tenure-track position applicants should use
requisition number #153840. Tenured position applicants should use
