  • Professor of Teaching Position in Mechanical Engineering (Open Rank)
    Mechanical Engineering
    University of California, Riverside



    The Department of Mechanical Engineering (ME) in the Bourns College of Engineering (BCOE) at the University of California, Riverside (UCR) invites applications for a Professor of Teaching position (Open Rank) beginning in the 2025/2026 academic year. Preference will be given to candidates with expertise in manufacturing. Exceptional applicants in other areas of Mechanical Engineering may also be considered.


    Appointment as an Assistant Professor of Teaching requires evidence of exceptional undergraduate teaching, professional achievement, and service to the academic community. An Assistant/Associate/Full Professor of Teaching is expected to teach undergraduate and graduate courses and to provide university and public services related to the undergraduate program, including curriculum development, student advising, ABET accreditation, and recruitment outreach.


    The Marlan and Rosemary Bourns College of Engineering is a well-established, rapidly growing college at UCR. Ranked in the top 50 best public research universities for engineering by U.S. News & World Report, BCOE has over 140 faculty members, more than 3,700 undergraduate students, 1,100 graduate students, and more than $44 million in total annual research expenditures. The college has five departments, 11 undergraduate degree programs, 10 graduate degree programs, and 11 research centers


    Preferred qualifications include:
    • A minimum of 3-5 years of experience and demonstrated record of high-quality and innovative teaching in a wide variety of undergraduate Mechanical Engineering courses in an ABET-accredited program.
    • A demonstrated record of teaching capstone senior design courses and experimental laboratory courses, as well as successful engagement with external sponsors to generate support for senior design projects.
    • A demonstrated record of developing curriculum that tightly integrates hands-on use of various manufacturing facilities (e.g. Machine Shop, Makerspace, Cleanroom, etc.) to provide substantive practical educational experiences for students.
    • Experience in advising undergraduate student clubs (e.g., ASME, SAE, SHPE, NSBE, SWE, etc.), and their participation in prestigious national competitions (FSAE, EcoCAR EV, NASA Micro-g NeXt, etc.).
    • Experience in advising undergraduate students in course selection and career development.
    • Demonstrated commitment to promoting diversity and inclusiveness in teaching, research, and service, in particular to broadening participation for women and other underrepresented groups.


    Appointments are expected to begin July 1, 2025. A B.S. and Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering is required at the time of employment. Salary will be commensurate with education and experience. Advancement through the faculty ranks at the University of California is through a series of structured, merit-based evaluations, occurring every 2-3 years, each of which includes substantial peer input.


    The posted UC salary scales set the minimum pay determined by rank and/or step at appointment. See Table(s) 3. The salary range for this position is $103,700 - $224,900. “Off-scale salaries” and other components of pay, i.e., a salary that is higher than the published system-wide salary at the designated rank and step, are offered when necessary to meet competitive conditions. See the campus compensation page for additional information.


    To apply for the position interested individuals are required to submit a cover letter, a curriculum vitae, three letters of reference or contact information for three references, a Statement of Teaching, an optional Statement of Research, and a Contribution to Diversity Statement to the AP Recruit website at https://aprecruit.ucr.edu/JPF01993. Inquiries should be directed to mesearch@engr.ucr.edu.


    Priority will be given to applications received by January 1, 2025; however, subsequent applications may be reviewed until the position is filled. For more information regarding the specific areas of interest and application procedures, please visit http://www.engr.ucr.edu/hireme
