The faculty member will teach in-person undergraduate and graduate courses focusing on space systems, astronautics, and astrodynamics. Additional duties include providing student academic advising, designing curricula, and supporting academic administration.
Candidates must hold a master's or doctoral degree in aerospace engineering or a related field with demonstrated excellence in teaching and research. Experience in orbital mechanics, space mission design, and mentoring diverse student populations is required.
Approval of remote and hybrid work is not guaranteed regardless of work location. For additional information on remote work at Penn State, see Notice to Out of State Applicants.
This is a term position; length of the term will be discussed during the interview process. Continuation past the term length discussed will be based on university need, performance, and/or availability of funding.
The Department of Aerospace Engineering at The Pennsylvania State University invites applications for a full-time, non-tenure-line, professional track teaching faculty position focusing on space systems, particularly in astronautics, astrodynamics and space systems design.
Successful candidates will teach in-person courses in astronautics, astrodynamics and space systems design required in the undergraduate and graduate programs at the University Park campus, will provide student academic advising, course and curricular design, and may support academic administration, during both the academic year and the summer.
The successful candidate will hold a master's or doctoral degree in aerospace engineering or a closely related field and be qualified to teach one or more of the courses required by the undergraduate program. Specifically, this position requires demonstrated experience in research and undergraduate and graduate instruction in areas supporting Space Systems, including astronautics, orbital mechanics, space mission design and analysis, and space system design.
Candidates must demonstrate teaching excellence. Candidates are also expected to demonstrate enthusiasm for interacting with and mentoring a diverse student population and contributing to all students' sense of belonging.
The appointment will be at the appropriate faculty rank of Lecturer, Assistant Teaching Professor, Associate Teaching Professor, or Teaching Professor. Rank and length of term will be determined based on education and experience. Please see Policy AC21 for the definition of academic ranks and promotional opportunities for non-tenure-line professional track faculty.
To apply, please submit a single PDF file (5MB max) that includes a cover letter articulating teaching interests and experience (please specifically note those AERSP courses that the candidate is qualified to teach out of the department undergraduate and graduate curriculum guide, particularly within this list of courses: AERSP 309, 401A/B, 450, 458 and 550), curriculum vitae, and contact information for three references. Review of applications will begin immediately and continue until the position is filled .
The mission of the Penn State Department of Aerospace Engineering is to nurture and grow aerospace engineers capable of addressing the emerging needs of the aerospace industry. Our vision is to use our collective technical ability and our collective passion for flight to grow thought leaders and technical innovators in our field and to create an environment in which: our faculty are the top scholars and creative leaders in our field, and our students are steeped in an inclusive culture valuing a rigorous approach to tough problems faced by the Aerospace Industry.
We have crafted this mission and vision to reflect both our passion for the field of aerospace engineering, and our chosen strategy of contributing to the field by nurturing and supporting people in all their career stages - undergraduate students, graduate students, and faculty - and the community within which we operate. We believe that we have a unique competitive advantage in our emphasis on supporting people and community: we attract faculty who want to work together in a collegial environment with all the benefits this brings to faculty productivity and inter-disciplinary efforts; our instruction is based on a vision of supporting the whole person; and inclusivity is vital to our community.
Our community includes 6 teaching faculty, 20 tenure-line faculty, and numerous active emeritus faculty, research faculty, and collaborators in other engineering departments and in the Applied Research Lab. Excitement for our undergraduate program is strong and our enrollment is growing steadily year-on-year. We seek to grow our professional faculty to support this enrollment growth without losing the personal touch and hands-on experiences we value in our undergraduate program, while also addressing critical gaps in our graduate instruction.
