Scientists have developed a chromium-molybdenum-silicon alloy that withstands extreme heat while remaining ductile and oxidation-resistant. It could replace nickel-based superalloys, which are limited to about 1,100°C. The new material might make turbines and engines significantly more efficient, marking a major step toward cleaner, more powerful energy systems.

Department of Aerospace Engineering – Open Rank Faculty Search
The Grainger College of Engineering
University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign

The Department of Aerospace Engineering in The Grainger College of Engineering at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign invites applications for one open-rank (assistant, associate, or full professor level) tenure-track, full-time faculty position. Emphasis will be placed on expertise in aerothermodynamics modeling and simulation, gas-surface thermochemical interactions, including quantum-mechanical and other fundamental treatments, high-temperature physics and ablation processes, and plasma physics, as related to hypersonic flight and atmospheric entry. Candidates in other areas relevant to Aerospace Engineering that will complement the department’s current strengths are also welcome to apply.

Successful candidates must be able to teach in these and other areas while also contributing to the excellence of our programs through research and service efforts. Candidates are expected to establish and maintain an active and independent research program, teach
