Chair & Professor
Cleveland State University
Cleveland, OH
The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering in the Washkewicz College of Engineering at Cleveland State University (CSU) invites applications for appointment as Chair and Professor of the Department beginning July 1, 2026. The Department is searching for a forward-thinking leader capable of cementing and further enhancing its stature as an authority in research, scholarship, and education. As a key member of the Washkewicz College of Engineering (WCE) leadership team, the Chair will champion the department's interests to the university leadership and external partners, while providing strong guidance in fulfilling and executing its mission. The ideal candidate will support all the department's subdisciplines and promote excellence in research, teaching, mentorship, and service; deepen relationships within and beyond the university; encourage innovation and industry engagement across all disciplines; drive the expansion of both undergraduate and graduate programs; and nurture a culture of collaboration and mutual support within the department. Birthplace to the Order of the Engineer, the Washkewicz College of Engineering (WCE) is home to 6 departments and several distinct undergraduate and graduate programs. The Civil and Environmental Engineering department's areas include Structural Engineering and Materials, Construction Engineering and Management, Geotechnical Engineering, Environmental Engineering and Water Resources Engineering, and Transportation Engineering. Notably, the department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at CSU houses two undergraduate programs - a well-established Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering program (BSCE) that started with the launch of WCE as Fenn College in 1923 and graduated generations of capable professionals in the field; and a very promising new Bachelor of Science in Construction Management (BSCM) that was industry demanded and funded in 2024. The new Bachelor's in Science program in Construction Management was launched with a Digital Construction focus that integrates cutting-edge techniques and technologies such as Building Information Modeling (BIM), automation and modular construction, and data analytics to prepare students for the future of the industry. In addition, to the Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy in Civil Engineering offered within the department, the Washkewicz College of Engineering is planning an expansion of our offerings with a proposed multidisciplinary master's in Program and Project Management, designed to develop industry leaders who can navigate complex, large-scale capital projects. The establishment of the dynamic academic program in Construction and Project Management were done in tandem with an industry focused Project Delivery Institute that works synergistically with local and national industry partners to bridge the industry academic gap and transfer knowledge via well-established collaborative platforms to enhance the precompetitive collaboration in capital intensive projects.
