Job Description:
The Russ College of Engineering and Technology’s Mechanical Engineering Department at Ohio University has occasional need for adjunct instructors to teach or co-teach classes for engineering students.

Adjunct instructor responsibilities usually include leading class sessions, grading student work, participating in course assessment activities, and responding to student questions in a timely manner.
