About the role

Boise State University invites applications for a Chair of the Department of Civil Engineering to lead a forward-looking strategic vision, drive growth in research programs, and expand external partnerships in a thriving Boise metro area. The Chair will mentor faculty, oversee budgeting and ABET processes, and foster a culture of accountability and shared governance to advance the department’s impact in teaching, research, and community engagement. Applicants should hold a Ph.D.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
