The Civil & Environmental Engineering Department (CEE) is a joint department in the School of Engineering and the Doerr School of Sustainability. Stanford Engineering (SOE) has been at the forefront of innovation for nearly a century, creating pivotal technologies that have transformed the worlds of information technology, communications, health care, energy, business and beyond. Our faculty and students are creative risk-takers who pursue excellence across a breadth of disciplines. Our alumni include some of the world’s most successful leaders in technology and business. The Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability (SDSS) strives to create a future when humans and nature thrive in concert and in perpetuity. The school is dedicated to creating and supporting a diverse, equitable, and inclusive environment, and to creating solutions that benefit all people, particularly those most affected by environmental damage and climate change.
The research group of Dr. Meagan Mauter seeks a Life Science Research Professional (LSRP1) to oversee and conduct research focused on developing a risk aware demand response bidding strategy for a generic water resource recovery facility. The Water & Energy Efficiency for the Environment (WE3) Lab’s ongoing research efforts include (1) developing automated, precise, robust, intensified, modular, and electrified (A-PRIME) water desalination technologies to support a circular water economy; (2) optimizing the coordinated operation of decarbonized water and energy systems; and (3) supporting the design and enforcement of water-energy-food policies.
