JOB DESCRIPTION AND POSITION REQUIREMENTS: The Department of Agricultural and Biological Engineering at The Pennsylvania State University is seeking an Associate/Full Professor in Safety and Health for Agricultural and BioRenewable Industries. The position will be located at University Park, PA. Position Description: Penn State's Agricultural Safety and Health Program is known throughout Pennsylvania, the Northeast and nationally for its innovative and interactive safety demonstrations and simulators and leadership in these areas. This position provides leadership for research, teaching and Extension/outreach efforts with Pennsylvania farmers, agricultural producers, and first responders. The position oversees and provides leadership to the programs related to interactions with agricultural and food production organizations, medical professionals, high school agricultural education programs, and county Extension Educators in program development and demonstrations. The position also oversees and provides programming vision for the National Safe Tractor and Machinery Operation Program (NSTMOP) student and Instructor Training. Instructors have trained thousands of students enabling them to obtain their US Department of Labor certification to work off their family farm. The NSTMOP material has been used to train adults, such as new and beginning farmers, veteran farmers, women in agriculture, and even used in the prison system to train inmates. The position also has the opportunity to lead the existing Ag Rescue Training Program to engage and train first responders about hazards associated with agricultural operations and proper management of emergencies. The position will be encouraged to develop additional externally funded programs in agricultural safety and health related to the candidate’s specific areas of expertise. The successful candidate will assume leadership of an established group of professional staff. These dedicated personnel will assist in implementing the outreach and research missions. Penn State’s Agricultural Safety & Health team controls a large, dedicated space to house its assets and operations, and oversees an impressive array of equipment to facilitate demonstrations, training and research. Key assets include multiple vehicles, demonstration trailers, fabrication tools, and digital resources. The program also has a strong history of external partnerships. Collaborative arrangements are possible with such entities as the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture and Penn State's Hershey College of Medicine. This position is endowed under the title “Nationwide Insurance Professor of Agricultural Safety & Health”. Appointment to the Professorship requires rank of full Professor and Provost approval. Candidates at the Associate Professor rank will be considered for the position if they are on a strong trajectory toward promotion to Full Professor. The successful candidate will provide leadership in the area of safety and health, with emphasis on identifying and mitigating safety hazards, reducing injuries and fatalities, and improving worker health across the spectrum of production agriculture, forestry, and agricultural/biorenewable systems. This can include machinery; animal, plant, and microbial systems; processing facilities, and human capital and management systems. The appointment will be 60% Extension, 25% Research, and 15% Teaching. The Extension and research program will focus on the integration of applications of engineering and technology solutions to hazards and risks, theory-based educational approaches to safety education, and the promotion of safety and health best management practices to reduce exposure to hazards and risk in agricultural and biorenewable industries. The successful candidate will be responsible for the instruction of one course, BRS 426, Safety and Health in Agriculture and Biorenewable Industries (3 credits). The successful candidate will be expected to build on an existing internationally recognized Extension and research program in agricultural safety and health. Strong Extension and research collaborations within the department and with faculty in other departments and colleges, as well as nationally and internationally, are expected. Securing external grant support for collaborative projects is imperative. The candidate will be expected to advise and mentor graduate students as part of the Extension and research components of the position.

The successful candidate must have sufficient academic accomplishments to be appointed as a tenured Associate or Full Professor. Experience with managing multiple budgets, projects, and teams is required. Excellent English language communication skills, both oral and written, are required.

The ability to engage professionally with a diverse population of faculty, staff, and students across the university, as well as the public served by the Extension program, is required. Because of the vehicle and equipment resources of this position and need for in-state travel, a valid U.S. drivers license is required. The successful candidate must have the desire and ability to conduct research, publish refereed journal articles and refereed Extension/outreach articles, and seek external grant funding. Demonstrated ability to function in a multidisciplinary and transdisciplinary team environment is a requirement. The person should have demonstrated capability to carry out original, independent, and innovative and nationally visible research, teaching and Extension programs.
