The Department of Design, Manufacturing and Engineering Management (DMEM), Faculty of Engineering, University of Strathclyde, wishes to appoint a highly motivated individual to new and exciting roles of Teaching Associates/Assistant Engineering Design with research. The position in Engineering Design is for 2 years and includes teaching as well as research and administrative support duties for the Head of Department. Whether Teaching Associate (Grade 7) or Teaching Assistant (Grade 6) will depend on experience. Due to the nature of the post with teaching as well as research and administrative activities, this position can be seen as a postdoctoral role with teaching responsibilities that can lead to further academic or teaching roles. The position is envisaged to start in July 2023 or as soon as possible thereafter.

You will be fluent in engineering design. This includes, but not limited to, engineering design methods and processes, digital design, computational engineering design, mechanics, mechatronic design, mechanical component and system design, design for manufacturing processes, and systems engineering.

In these roles, you will deliver teaching, teaching support and other activities to ensure that a world-class student experience is enabled for undergraduate and taught postgraduate students, through the delivery of lectures, other classes, workshops, tutorials and project supervision. You will also be expected to undertake scholarly and research activities aligned with teaching activities. You will be an ambassador of our Department, the Faculty of Engineering, and Strathclyde, and be responsible for developing our Department’s reputation in its teaching activities both internal and external to our University.

You will work as part of a team specifically focused on developing our students’ core professional engineering skills of design, experimentation, engineering management and the ability to apply fundamental engineering principles to real-world engineering problems. The role requires delivery of a variety of types of teaching within the core modules of our established portfolio of integrated engineering programmes. The key focus of the role is delivering the very best student experience and giving our graduates industrially-relevant engineering skills. You will be expected to teach both on-campus and online using the full range of university digital systems and tools.

Informal enquiries about the post can be directed to Professor and Head of Department Anja Maier at anja.maier@strath.ac.uk or DMEM Director of Teaching & Learning Dr Hilary Grierson h.j.grierson@strath.ac.uk

Formal interviews for this post will be held during May 2023 or as soon as possible thereafter.
