Assistant, Associate, Full Professor, Department of Engineering and Computing Education

The Department of Engineering and Computing Education (DECE) in the College of Engineering and Applied Science (CEAS) at the University of Cincinnati (UC) invites applications for multiple tenure-track positions at all ranks. Candidates will be expected to conduct research in Engineering or Computer Science (CS) Education. The program is open to diverse research areas and approaches within these fields, such as but not limited to workforce development (i.e., engineering education research with an industry focus) or P-12 education.

The Department of Engineering and Computing Education was created in 2007 with the goals of delivering the highest quality teaching and learning experience for the CEAS students, as well as advancing the scholarship of teaching and learning through a rigorous research enterprise. The department provides undergraduate students with tutoring, mentoring, advising and other support services, as well as valuable research opportunities. Graduate students learn about conducting fundamental research on engineering learning and bridging research and practice by defining effective practices, identifying the reasons why they work, developing curricula, assessing how students learn, and potentially moving those findings into future engineering classrooms. Faculty in the department teach fundamental courses in undergraduate engineering, as well as graduate courses in the discipline of engineering education. DECE is currently undertaking a significant restructuring of its first-year engineering program through support from the National Science Foundation. The University of Cincinnati is the birthplace of the cooperative education (co-op) program and CEAS holds the largest public mandatory cooperative education program at a public university in the United States. The CEAS total undergraduate and graduate enrollment is 7,000 students.

• Develop (or advance) a nationally/internationally recognized, externally-funded research program in engineering/CS education (evidenced by grantsmanship and/or published refereed journal/conference papers, commensurate with rank);
• Advise graduate students;
• Teach graduate and undergraduate courses in engineering education (including, but not limited to, first-year engineering courses);
• Assist with first-year engineering restructuring as appropriate;
• Perform service at the Department (e.g., student career mentoring, advising of student organizations, service on committees), College, University, and professional societies levels (including peer review for journals or funding agencies);
• Nurture collaborations across the college and campus; and work to achieve departmental, college, anduniversity strategic goals;
• Further the department's goals of developing and sustaining premier research programs and preparing students to become high-performing professionals in the workplace through collegial collaboration and teamwork within the Department of Engineering and Computing Education, with other CEAS departments, and other UC Colleges.

Prior to the effective date of appointment, must hold a Ph.D. degree in Engineering Education, or a related discipline.
