- POSITION ANNOUNCEMENT: Multiple Teaching / Professional Track Faculty Positions, NC State Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering
The Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at NC State University seeks highly qualified candidates to fill
multiple professional track (non-tenure track) teaching faculty positions. Successful candidates are expected to teach undergraduate- and/or graduate-level chemical engineering courses, perform internal and external professional service at a level commensurate with rank, and establish a national or international reputation in engineering education, outreach, and/or extension. Review of application materials will begin on
October 18, 2024. For more information or to apply, please see

- POSITION ANNOUNCEMENT: McCormick Teaching Excellence Institute Associate Director at Cornell University
The College of Engineering and Bowers College of Computing and Information Science at Cornell University invite applications for an Associate Director for the McCormick Teaching Excellence Institute (MTEI,
https://mtei.engineering.cornell.edu/). MTEI’s mission is collaborative, developing teaching excellence in a time-efficient manner for faculty. The Associate Director will be a non-tenure track faculty member at the rank of Lecturer/Senior Lecturer, depending on experience and qualifications. Depending on the successful candidate’s background, there is a possibility of working with an engineering or Bowers CIS department to occasionally teach or co-teach a course. The position has the flexibility to be either an academic year (9-month) or full year (12-month) appointment with an initial appointment of 3 to 5 years, renewable.
MTEI currently employs a full-time Director, an Administrative Assistant, and several Faculty Teaching Fellows who have 10% appointments in MTEI (while full-time teaching in departments). In addition, MTEI-affiliated Faculty Research Fellows are fully embedded in engineering departments as tenure-track faculty with research specialization in engineering education topics.
The Associate Director will contribute to MTEI programs and work with faculty on improving and innovating in teaching across the departments in both colleges. Tasks will include a mix of writing teaching tips, leading workshops, observing classes and providing pointers to faculty, reviewing student course feedback to support course improvements, and working with faculty on course design or redesign efforts. MTEI especially works with new faculty to ensure they have a strong start to teaching. The Associate Director and the instructors who will use MTEI as a resource will be teaching a highly diverse student population, so inclusive teaching is essential.
The successful candidate must have the following qualifications:
– PhD in engineering or computer science, information sciences, statistics, or a closely related field such as physics, math, chemistry, or engineering education
– 3 years teaching experience at the college level as a full course instructor
– A knowledge base of STEM Education Research and resulting best practices
– Demonstrated use of research-informed practices
– Strong communication skills in English
– Ability to work collaboratively as part of a team engaging with both faculty and staff
– Service-oriented with an ability to provide feedback gently and succinctly with a goal of actionable suggestions for improvement
– Must be available to work predominantly in-person
For questions about the position, please contact MTEI Director, Dr. Kathy Dimiduk (
klc78@cornell.edu).
- POSITION ANNOUNCEMENT: Postdoctoral Scholar, Department of Engineering Education, The Ohio State University
The post-doctoral research associate position is supported by the National Science Foundation funded project,
‘Trust but Verify: The Use of Intuition in Problem Solving’ (EEC-2325524). The project is led by a multi-institutional team that includes scholars from Bucknell University (Dr. Elif Miskioğlu), Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, Prescott (Dr. Kaela Martin), and The Ohio State University (Dr. Adam Carberry). The position is physically located at Ohio State with remote options possible depending on location (in-person preferred).
The project’s primary goal is to examine the application of intuition by engineering practitioners to generate knowledge that promotes professional formation and development of a stronger engineering workforce using cognitive task analysis (CTA) to elicit expert knowledge. Candidates will be responsible for collaborating with the investigator team, conducting CTA research, writing manuscripts, presenting on and off campus, and mentoring undergraduate research assistants. An adaptable mentoring plan has been devised by the team to support the career and professional aspirations of the identified post-doc.
