Job Description:
Title:
Adjunct Instructor in Physics
Department:
Physics
Reports To:
The Department Chair
Position Type:
Faculty
Position Summary:
The NJIT Department of Physics is recruiting a pool of applicants
interested in teaching classes in the Physics program on an ongoing
basis. The goal of the department is to educate the next generation
of scientists, engineers, and scientifically informed citizenry
through research intensive education in the physical sciences and
related technologies. In these days of rapid changes in science and
technology, we are also faced with the fact that progress requires
interdisciplinary approaches: many advances in science and
technology are not within one discipline but occur at the
boundaries of many disciplines. To maintain our leadership in the
forefront of scientific research in diverse fields such as
solar-terrestrial and astrophysical research, photonics, imaging,
and optical science, biophysics, material science, microelectronics
etc., we continue our research efforts in the direction of
applications of basic principles and the development of new
devices. By its very nature the Physics Department at New Jersey
Institute of Technology is an Applied Physics Program as opposed to
a traditional theoretical physics program. Qualified applicants not
able to take on a class in a particular semester would continue to
be considered in future semesters. Adjunct instructors will be
given the learning objectives and requirements for each class
assigned.
Essential Functions:
- Teach the assigned course as required.
- Integrate core concepts from past courses into the one being
taught.
- Communicate with students, faculty and administration on student
progress throughout the semester.
Prerequisite Qualifications:
- MS in Physics or closely-related field.
- Ph.D. in Physics or closely-related field. Prior teaching
experience is particularly welcome.
- At the university's discretion, the education and experience
prerequisites may be exempted where the candidate can demonstrate
to the satisfaction of the university, an equivalent combination of
education and experience specifically preparing the candidate for
success in the position.
