Synopsis
Program Mission:
The IUCRC program catalyzes breakthrough pre-competitive research by enabling close and sustained engagement between industry innovators, world-class academic teams, and government agencies. IUCRCs help industry partners and government agencies connect directly and efficiently with university researchers to achieve three primary objectives: 1) Conduct high-impact research to meet shared and critical industrial needs in companies of all sizes; 2) Enhance U.S. global leadership in driving innovative technology development, and 3) Identify, mentor and develop a diverse, highly skilled science and engineering workforce.
Program Overview:
The IUCRC program provides a structure for academic researchers to conduct fundamental, pre-competitive research of shared interest to industry and government organizations. These organizations pay membership fees to a consortium so that they can collectively envision and fund research, with at least 90% of Member funds allocated to the direct costs of these shared research projects.
IUCRCs are formed

The Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering (ChBE) at Tufts University has an opening for a part-time lecturer position. The anticipated start date is September 1, 2025.
The lecturer search is for a graduate course on Advanced Kinetics and Reactor Design. It is a core course in the Chemical Engineering MS and PhD programs, typically taken by each student in their first year. In this course, we review and build upon prior knowledge of chemical reaction kinetics and reactor design to address more complex scenarios beyond the conventional. While the specific content is negotiable, prior iterations have focused on: reaction stoichiometry with multiple reactions, chemical equilibrium, analytical reactor material balances, numerical reactor solutions, energy balances in reactive systems, non-ideal mixing behaviors/residence time distributions, kinetics of elementary reactions, kinetics of heterogeneous catalytic reactions, and coupled reaction/diffusion. Iterations focused primarily on reactor design or reaction kinetics are also
