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

From 28/05/2025 to 28/05/2025, a Tropical Depression (maximum wind speed of 102 km/h) ONE-E-25 was active in EastPacific. The cyclone affects these countries: [unknown] (vulnerability [unknown]). Estimated population affected by category 1 (120 km/h) wind speeds or higher is 0 (0 in tropical storm).

Engineers have developed a real-life Transformer that has the ‘brains’ to morph in midair, allowing the drone-like robot to smoothly roll away and begin its ground operations without pause. The increased agility and robustness of such robots could be particularly useful for commercial delivery systems and robotic explorers.
