The Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering at Bucknell University invites applications for a Visiting Assistant Professor (VAP) faculty position beginning in August 2018 for one academic year (nine months). VAPs teach six credits over the academic year - each lecture section counts as one credit and each lab section counts as half a credit. A VAP position at Bucknell is not an adjunct position; rather it is a salaried appointment with benefits and funding for professional development. VAPs are considered full members of the Bucknell faculty. While the primary responsibilities are teaching, continued scholarship and collaboration is encouraged for VAPs. Candidates are expected to have a Ph.D. in electrical or computer engineering or a closely related field and have demonstrated they can effectively teach a range of computer engineering courses to a diverse set of undergraduate students.

Bucknell is a highly selective, predominantly undergraduate, private university with approximately 3600 students enrolled in the Colleges of Arts & Sciences, Engineering, and Management. The Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering is a collegial community of approximately ten tenured or tenure track-faculty who collaborate with colleagues across campus. The department has up-to-date undergraduate laboratory facilities. Bucknell University, an Equal Opportunity Employer, believes that students learn best in a diverse, inclusive community and is committed to academic excellence through diversity in its faculty, staff, and students. Thus, we seek candidates who are committed to Bucknell's efforts to create a climate that fosters the growth and development of a diverse student body. We welcome applications from members of groups that have been historically underrepresented in higher education or engineering.

For additional information and to apply, please visit careers.bucknell.edu. Please include a cover letter indicating your interest in and qualifications for the position and a current CV. The cover letter or CV should address the candidate's capability to be an effective teacher. You may address questions about the position to ece@bucknell.edu. Review of applications will begin on April 15th and continue until a pool of qualified applicants is identified.
