About us

QUT is a major Australian university with a global outlook and a 'real world' focus. We are an ambitious and collaborative institution that seeks to equip our students and graduates with the skills they will need in an increasingly disrupted and challenged world.

The School of Mechanical, Medical and Process Engineering delivers education and research into the design, manufacture and operation of Biomedical, Chemical and Mechanical systems and processes. The School works across all scales, from nanoscale to personal devices to industrial complexes – building pilot plants to put our research into action. The School builds on the engineering principles of Mechanics, Thermodynamics and Materials Engineering to create new and emerging technologies including Biofabrication, Advanced Manufacturing and Chemical Processing. We work with partners to build new, and improve existing, systems and technologies across mechanical, medical, mining, food and beverages, oil and gas, energy, waste, sugar, and chemical engineering industries. The School’s research is well aligned with the University’s real-world positioning, through partnerships across internal and external boundaries.


What you need to succeed

  1. Completion of a Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) qualification with a major in Mechanical Engineering (or relevant engineering discipline) and a PhD qualification in Mechanical Engineering (or closely related field).
  2. Demonstrated capacity to undertake high quality learning and teaching at a tertiary education level including the ability to implement innovative teaching practices, such as blended learning and authentic assessment. At Level C, the candidate will have demonstrated experience in co-ordination and lecturing of tertiary level units.
  3. Demonstrated academic research experience in mechanical engineering, specifically, thermofluids, fluid dynamics, renewable energy, energy systems, or a highly related field, including a track record in producing high quality publications, securing external research funding, and the supervision of undergraduate and postgraduate students. At Level C, the candidate will have demonstrated independent leadership in developing and managing research projects. 
  4. Strong interpersonal and communication skills including the demonstrated capacity to collaborate with internal and external stakeholders. Experience working directly in industry and/or undertaking university-based industry research with an external partner is highly desirable.  
  5. Demonstrated ability to effectively work independently and as a member of a multidisciplinary team to deliver outcomes.
