About you

The University values trust, accountability and excellence. As such, we see the importance of recruiting talent aligned to these values. You will develop an independent research program and engage in collaborations within and outside the University, across biomedical engineering, medicine, biology, and industry, including local and wider health districts and hospitals. You will contribute to curriculum development and delivery in biomedical engineering and relevant topics at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels and contribute to leadership of the School/Faculty.

The School of Biomedical Engineering is seeking Academics of all levels who can demonstrate:

• a PhD in a relevant field such as biomedical engineering, computer science, electrical/electronic engineering, mechanical engineering, material engineering, chemical engineering, medical science and biology. Applicants who have submitted their PhD for examination or will do so in the immediate future can be considered
• a strong track record in biomedical engineering involving leveraging advanced science and technologies to enhance various aspects of healthcare, including diagnosis, treatment, prevention, drug discovery, biomedical signal processing, bioinformatics and more.
• a strong research track record (or for junior applicants demonstrating potential) for publishing high quality papers and securing fundings
• ability to teach, engage, and support the learning of students using innovative and modern pedagogies, including the organisation and delivery of a unit of study
• outstanding communication skills and collegiality
• high-level problem-solving skills with the ability to address complex issues as they arise.

The School of Biomedical Engineering seeks to increase the gender equity and diversity of its academic staff and strongly encourages women and candidates from underrepresented groups in Engineering to apply.
