Department of Engineering Technology
The Department of Engineering Technology seeks to develop a pool of candidates for possible temporary/nontenured faculty to teach on a per course capacity.
Temporary/nontenured per course faculty are appointed to teach up to two courses per semester. Teaching appointments are based upon student demand on a semester by semester basis. Eligibility for annual reappointment is contingent upon satisfactory annual performance evaluations during the term period, in addition to continuity of funding and departmental need. Successful candidates may teach at the San Marcos and Round Rock campuses and/or online, depending on the needs of the academic department.
Please note that this posting is not intended to convey that such a need currently exists. Applicants applying for a pool faculty position will be available to the departmental search committee for consideration as the need arises.
Specific educational requirements vary by position, but a minimum of a master’s degree with 18 graduate hours in the teaching field is generally required.
Previous teaching experience is preferred.
The Department of Engineering Technology will accept applications from qualified applicants on a continual basis. Only applications submitted through the Texas State University website will be accepted and considered. Interested individuals should submit a current CV, letter of interest outlining specific academic and professional experiences relevant for appointment, unofficial transcripts, and two letters of recommendation. As part of our application process, we are requesting contact information for three academic references who can provide information about the applicant’s skills and experiences. Please provide the names and email addresses for your academic references in the Reference Letter section of the employment application. Candidates selected for hire will be required to provide official transcripts from all degree granting universities.
