Teaching Assistant Jobs

The Department of Computer Science (CS) and the Lee J. Styslinger Jr. College of Engineering at The University of Alabama invite applications for a full-time, renewable-contract Teaching Assistant Professor position in Artificial Intelligence, with a focus on Software Engineering, within the CS department. This position is a non-tenure track, three-year appointment that is renewable at the discretion of the University. Primary responsibilities include teaching undergraduate and graduate courses in artificial intelligence, software engineering, and related computer science topics both in person and online; mentoring and guiding students individually as part of capstone or applied project teams; maintaining a visible on-campus presence including regular office hours; innovating curriculum and assessment approaches; and performing service activities for the department, college, and university commensurate with the teaching faculty position. This position is a non-tenure-earning position, renewable on a multi-year basis at the discretion of the University. This appointment is dependent upon meeting the departmental and college performance standards and complying with all faculty and general UA employment policies, with no expectation of continued employment beyond any contract period. Candidates who bring strong classroom teaching skills and a commitment to student success in artificial intelligence and software engineering are encouraged to apply. The department, college and university are also notable for the collegial, welcoming and supportive spirit built into the fabric of who we are and how we interact across our college family of students, faculty, and staff. It is therefore expected that candidates demonstrate an ability to support this important aspect of our community. The CS department and College also pride themselves on the outstanding educational experience provided to their students, and thus faculty candidates must demonstrate an ability to develop and teach courses at both the undergraduate and graduate levels in the faculty member’s area(s) of expertise, as well as to teach courses that support the delivery and accreditation of the CS department’s core degree programs.
