The Dwight Look College of Engineering, Texas A&M University, invites applications and nomi­ nations for the position of head of the Artie McFerrin Department of Chemical Engineering. The department is experiencing an excit­ ing period of growth, reflected in the hire of 17 new faculty members in the last five years as well as a move to a new building. The new department head will be expected to build upon these developments and con­ tinue the department's momentum. Oppor­ tunities exist for expanding interdisciplinary research in innovative energy alternatives and unconventional energy sources at Texas A&M, and interaction with life sciences and nanomaterials initiatives. In November 2004, the department moved into the new Jack E. Brown Engineering Build­ ing, which was built at a cost of $38 million. This 205,000 square-foot facility includes state-of-the-art research laboratories and classrooms as well as a 356-processor super­

computer cluster. The department currently has 26 full-time faculty members and over 140 graduate students. It has an endowment base that includes two endowed chairs, seven endowed professorships, three endowed graduate fellowships, and more than 100 un­ dergraduate scholarships. In 2005, the depart­ ment received a $10 million endowment and was named the Artie McFerrin Department of Chemical Engineering. The department has strong programs that cover a broad spectrum of traditional, emerging, and interdisciplinary areas that include biomedical and biomolecular engineering; complex fluids; computa­ tional chemical engineering; environmental engineering; kinetics, catalysis, and reaction engineering; materials; microelectronics; molecular electronics; microfluidics; nanotechnology; process systems engineering; thermodynamics; and the nationally recog­ nized Mary Kay O'Connor Process Safety

Center. The National Science Foundation's rankings of total dollar volume of research places the Artie McFerrin Department of Chemical Engineering third nationally with over $10 million. The university and college provide a strong base of support for the department, and sup­ port from industry and alumni is exceptional. Texas A&M, a land-grant, sea-grant, and space-grant institution, is one of the six larg­ est universities in the United States and has over 46,000 students, including nearly 9,000 engineering students in twelve departments. Approximately 20 percent of the engineering students are graduate students. US News & World Report ranks the engineering gradu­ ate program and undergraduate program eighth among public U.S. universities. Texas A&M is located in Bryan/College Sta­ tion, Texas, a community of about 150,000 in the center of the triangle formed by Dallas/Ft. Worth, Houston, and San Antonio.
