MILITARY FACULTY

Military Positions | Military FAQ | Advanced Degree Sponsorship

The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (DFCE) needs instructors in Construction, Environmental Engineering, Structural Engineering, Geotechnical Engineering, and Architecture. 75% of our faculty are military officers who hold a Master’s or Doctorate Degree in one of those disciplines. Each year we also sponsor Air Force officers for advanced degrees and instructor preparation through the AFIT/CI program.

Timeline
Packages should ideally be submitted by August 1st to begin school the following summer/fall. These deadlines are definitely not firm and will be modified depending on the number and quality of applicants.
