    The College of Engineering at the University of Houston invites applications for a non-tenure- track (NTT) faculty in the rank of Instructional Assistant Professor to begin in the academic year.

    Successful applicants will join the First Year Experience (FYE) faculty team, whose main role is two-fold: (i) teaching the common first-year curriculum in the Cullen College, and (ii) contribute to the various student success initiatives in the college, which include the Program for Mastery of Engineering Studies (PROMES), the Honors Engineering Program (HEP), and the National Academy of Engineering Grand Challenges Scholars Program (NAE-GCSP).

    This faculty team works closely with the college's academic advisors, our various student organizations, and with faculty in many departments with the goal of equipping our students for success in their full academic journey.

    It is a very high priority for the college to provide a positive and supportive environment where students are enabled to succeed academically while gaining an understanding of the engineering profession and its disciplines, and our instructional faculty play a key role in this enterprise.


    DUTIES
    The main responsibility of these positions is teaching.

    At the same time, there is an expectation that our instructional faculty will also contribute to service and administrative tasks as required in the college.

    The annual teaching course load is twelve contact hours per semester, often with several sections of the same course in any semester.

    Course assignments will be at the undergraduate level, focusing on first-year engineering courses and a limited number of sophomore engineering courses as well.

    While most of the teaching duties will be at the main campus of UH, we expect that some teaching would be delivered online or at the UH-HCC (Houston Community College) Engineering Academies at Katy and at HCC-Southeast.

    The FYE faculty work as a team, developing course curriculum and content, along with working together during the semesters on delivery and student interactions.

    These courses emphasize design and problem-solving using engineering tools and software.

    TERMS
    This is a full-time, benefits eligible, non-tenure-track position, as an instructional assistant professor. Appointments are made on an annual 9-month basis, salary commensurate with experience.

    APPLICATION SUBMISSION
    Applications will be accepted until the position is filled.

    Candidates are required to submit a cover letter highlighting the candidate's strengths and interest in the position, curriculum vitae, statement on teaching philosophy, and the names of three professional references.

    To apply, please go to complete your on-line application.

    The University of Houston is a Carnegie-designated Tier One public research university recognized with a Phi Beta Kappa chapter for excellence in undergraduate education.
