Job Overview
The Department of Engineering and Computing Education (DECE) in the College of Engineering and Applied Science (CEAS) at the University of Cincinnati (UC) invites applications for multiple tenure-track positions at all ranks.
Candidates will be expected to conduct research in Engineering or Computer Science (CS) Education.
The program is open to diverse research areas and approaches within these fields, such as but not limited to workforce development (i.e., engineering education research with an industry focus) or P-12 education.
The Department of Engineering and Computing Education was created in 2007 with the goals of delivering the highest quality teaching and learning experience for the CEAS students, as well as advancing the scholarship of teaching and learning through a rigorous research enterprise.
The department provides undergraduate students with tutoring, mentoring, advising and other support services, as well as valuable research opportunities.
Graduate students learn about conducting fundamental research on engineering learning and bridging research and practice by defining effective practices, identifying the reasons why they work, developing curricula, assessing how students learn, and potentially moving those findings into future engineering classrooms.
Faculty in the department teach fundamental courses in undergraduate engineering, as well as graduate courses in the discipline of engineering education.
DECE is currently undertaking a significant restructuring of its first-year engineering program through support from the National Science Foundation.
The University of Cincinnati is the birthplace of the cooperative education (co-op) program and CEAS holds the largest public mandatory cooperative education program at a public university in the United States.
The CEAS total undergraduate and graduate enrollment is 7,000 students.
