| The Department of Bioengineering at Northeastern University is seeking outstanding individuals to fill a full-time non-tenure-track faculty position at the rank of Assistant/Associate/Full Teaching Professor with a focus in Bioengineering.
The main responsibility of the non-tenure-track teaching faculty is high-quality student-centered teaching, including course preparation, delivery, and assessment. The annual course responsibility is six courses. The Assistant/Associate/Full Teaching Professor also participates in department, university, and professional service activities and will be engaged in a modest level of scholarship for their own professional development around education and pedagogy.
Course assignments may be at both the undergraduate and graduate levels within the Bioengineering department with primary emphasis on core topics within the department. We are seeking a dedicated teaching faculty member with expertise in various laboratory-based courses and techniques, as well as capstone design projects, focusing on the following interconnected topics:
Teaching a wide range of lab-based courses covering mammalian cell culture, microbiological culture techniques, agarose gel electrophoresis, SDS-PAGE, PCR, ELISA assays, and microscopy.
Exploring cell and tissue engineering approaches, such as stem cell research, cellular reprogramming, 3D cell culture systems, bioprinting, and scaffold design.
Delving into the intricacies of cellular signaling, communication, and interactions within engineered tissues to better understand tissue development and function.
Familiarity with bioreactors and dynamic culture systems for the maturation and conditioning of engineered tissues, as well as other tissue engineering applications in the rapidly advancing field of regenerative medicine.
In addition to teaching, the position may require industry outreach to support experiential components of degree program curriculum within Bioengineering and course development. |
