University of Washington Hiring for Assistant Teaching Professor – Aeronautics & Astronautics at Seattle, WA Full Time

The University of Washington’s William E. Boeing Department of Aeronautics & Astronautics (A&A) invites applications for a
full-time Assistant Teaching Professor position. Assistant Teaching Professors are non-tenured faculty members who are hired on multi-year
appointments with a 9-month service period (September 16 through June 15) that may allow for additional opportunities to teach during the
summer. The anticipated start date is September 1, 2022. The initial appointment duration and compensation will be commensurate with the
applicant’s qualifications.

The expected teaching responsibility portfolio for the Assistant Teaching Professor position is
variable based upon assigned combination of lecture courses, laboratory courses, service and curriculum management. Opportunities exist for
coordinating and delivering project-based learning curricula. Educational and manufacturing activities are supported by a full-time
instructional machine shop supervisor and a full-time instructional lab manager. A&A offers a highly collaborative culture, with a range
of teaching and curriculum-development opportunities in undergraduate and master’s level courses. 

UW faculty engage in
teaching, research, and service. While Assistant Teaching Professor at UW are primarily evaluated with regard to their teaching and service,

across the College of Engineering and the three UW campuses.

multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary ground-breaking research, instruction, and collaboration in controls and autonomous systems, fluids,
plasma science and space systems, and materials and structures. (For more information on our research and labs, please visit https://www.aa.washington.edu/research/areas.) We
also routinely engage in research projects with affiliates from the region’s noted high-tech industry. In addition, the successful
candidate will be expected to:

• engage in project-based, multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary teaching,
• teach and
  mentor students, and
• implement a thoughtful strategy for teaching and service that supports our commitment to diversity and
  inclusion.
