This includes local industry experts who are interested in teaching advanced evening classes in cutting‑edge new areas.

The CS department also offers online M.S. and post-baccalaureate degrees and is looking for instructors who can deliver these courses; all applicants will be considered for these positions as well. We encourage individuals outside the Boston area to consider applying if interested in online teaching.
