| Seeking visionary leader to serve as Director of the Institute of Northern Engineering (INE) at the University of Alaska Fairbanks College of Engineering and Mines (CEM). As the research arm of CEM, INE is home to several distinct research centers and provides facilities and support to dozens of researchers working in conjunction with the College.
