Open Rank - Professor -Tenure Track - Chemical Engineering

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we need to use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections when posting has real specific content. We need to extract content: The job posting includes: - Job title: Open Rank - Professor -Tenure Track - Chemical Engineering (but we don't repeat as heading) - Department: CEC Mechanical Engineering? Actually says Department: CEC Mechanical Engineering (maybe mis-typo). But we can include in a short paragraph. - Advertised Salary Range: To commensurate with qualifications (that's placeholder, not specific, so we should NOT create Pay section because it's not specific. - About UofSC: description of system. - Advertised Job Summary: details about position, location Columbia, SC, start date Fall 2027, etc. This could be "About the role" or "Responsibilities"? Actually responsibilities are not listed explicitly; they talk about expectations: develop and sustain internationally recognized research program, focus on advanced battery science and engineering, specific research areas. That's more like responsibilities/duties. - Required Education And Experience: details about PhD, etc. - Preferred Qualifications: Knowledge skills and experience in advanced battery science and engineering (repeated). Also maybe other preferred qualifications? Not much. - Benefits: list of benefits: Health and Life Insurance, Retirement Programs, Paid Tuition, Dependent Scholarships, Annual Leave, Sick Leave, 13 Paid Holidays (including an extended December holiday), Paid Parental Leave, Professional Development Opportunities. - Pay: not specific. - Schedule: not mentioned (full time indicated but not schedule details). Could we include Schedule? The posting says Part/Full Time: Full Time. That's schedule info. So we could include a Schedule section with "Full Time". That's specific enough. - Also we have "Review of applications will begin on December 1st, 2026, and continue until the positions are filled. The expected start date is August 16, 2027." That could be in About the role or maybe a separate section like "Important Dates". But we only have allowed headings; we could put that info in About the role or Responsibilities. Probably About the role. - Also "Applicants must apply with the following information: (1) a letter of intent, (2) curriculum vitae, (3) a concise description of research and teaching plans, and (4) names and contact information of at least three references." That's application instructions, which we must remove per instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we should drop that. - Also "Positions are advertised for a minimum of forty-five (45) days on our job website..." etc. That's also application instructions/boilerplate; remove. - Also benefits link etc. Remove. - Also EEO statement: remove. Thus we keep substantive info: About UofSC (maybe as About the role?), Job Summary (responsibilities), Required Education and Experience (requirements/qualifications), Preferred Qualifications (skills), Benefits, Schedule (Full Time). Also maybe we could include "About the role" heading with description of the position (location, start date, focus areas). Let's decide. We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. Use

for section headings. We'll produce something like:

About the role

The Molinaroli College of Engineering and Computing at the University of South Carolina is expanding its tenured and tenure-track faculty. This position is for a tenured or tenure-track Professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering, located in Columbia, SC, with an expected start date of August 16, 2027. The focus of the search is advanced battery science and engineering, including electrochemical modeling (with machine learning/AI), battery safety and reliability, novel recycling approaches, and new chemistries and active materials.

Responsibilities

• Develop and sustain an internationally recognized research program in advanced battery science and engineering.
• Conduct research in electrochemical modeling (preferably with advanced machine learning and AI), battery safety and reliability, novel recycling approaches, and new chemistries/active materials.
• Contribute to teaching and mentoring of undergraduate and graduate students.
• Participate in service activities within the department, college, and university.

But we need to ensure we don't invent details not in posting. The posting didn't explicitly mention teaching and mentoring or service, but those are typical for faculty. However we must not invent. The posting says: "Successful candidates will be expected to develop and sustain an internationally recognized research program." It also mentions focus areas. It doesn't explicitly mention teaching duties, but as a faculty role, teaching is implied. However we should not invent. Better to stick to what is stated: develop and sustain research program, focus areas. Could also mention that applicants must demonstrate potential for excellence in teaching and research (for Assistant Professor). That is in Required Education And Experience. So we can include teaching expectation there. Thus Responsibilities could be: develop and sustain internationally recognized research program; focus on advanced battery science and engineering including specific areas. That's it. We can also include location and start date in About the role. Now Requirements/Qualifications: We have Required Education And Experience: PhD in chemical engineering or related field by time of appointment; demonstrate potential for excellence in teaching and research; for Associate/Full Professor also years of relevant academic experience commensurate with academic policy; strong sustained record of excellence in teaching and research; expected to develop and sustain internationally recognized research program. We can put that under

Requirements

with

• ...>. Preferred Qualifications: Knowledge skills and experience in advanced battery science and engineering. That's it. Skills: maybe we could combine Preferred Qualifications as Skills section. But we already have Preferred Qualifications; we could use Skills heading for that. Benefits: list as
  . Schedule: Full Time. We must not include headings with empty or placeholder content. Ensure each heading has substantive content. Now produce HTML fragment only. Let's craft:

  Check for any duplicated content: We have repeated "develop and sustain an internationally recognized research program" in Responsibilities and Requirements; that's okay as it's from posting. We removed application instructions, EEO, boilerplate, etc. We didn't include Pay section because not specific. We didn't include any placeholder like "commensurate with qualifications" etc. We kept all substantive info: About UofSC description? Actually we included a brief About the role that includes some of the UofSC description? We omitted the longer description of the system. The posting had a paragraph about UofSC system. Should we preserve that? It's substantive information about the institution. The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we should include that description somewhere. Could be part of About the role or a separate section like "About the institution". But we only have allowed headings; we could include it under About the role as part of the description. However we omitted it. We need to include that description. Let's incorporate the UofSC system description into About the role. The description: "From the Upstate to the Lowcountry, the University of South Carolina system is transforming the lives of South Carolinians through the impact of our eight institutions and 20 locations throughout the state. More than 50,000 students are enrolled at one of eight institutions, including the research campus in Columbia and comprehensive four-year universities in Aiken, Upstate and Beaufort. In addition, our Palmetto College campuses in Salkehatchie, Union, Lancaster and Sumter enable students to earn associate or bachelor's degrees through a combination of in-person, online or blended learning. All of our system institutions place strong emphasis on service — helping to build healthier, more educated communities in South Carolina and beyond." We should include that. Thus About the role paragraph will be longer, combining both. Let's rewrite About the role:

This position is for a tenured or tenure-track Professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering, located in Columbia, SC, with an expected start date of August 16, 2027. The search focuses on advanced battery science and engineering, including electrochemical modeling (preferably with machine learning/AI), battery safety and reliability, novel recycling approaches, and new chemistries and active materials. The University of South Carolina system serves over 50,000 students across eight institutions and 20 locations, from the Upstate to the Lowcountry, with a strong emphasis on service to build healthier, more educated communities in South Carolina and beyond.

  That captures the UofSC description. Now ensure we didn't miss any other substantive info: The posting also mentions "Review of applications will begin on December 1st, 2026, and continue until the positions are filled." That's substantive but is application instruction/timeline. The instruction says to remove application instructions. However is that considered boilerplate? It's part of the process but maybe considered application instruction. The instruction says: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we should remove that line. Also "The expected start date is August 16, 2027." We already included start date. Good. Also "Applicants must apply with the following information: ..." removed. Also "Positions are advertised for a minimum of forty-five (45) days..." removed. Also "This employment site is updated on a regular basis." removed. Also "The length of the recruitment and screening process may vary..." removed. Also "Should review of your qualifications result in a decision to pursue your candidacy, you will be contacted by phone or email." removed. Also the
