Seaver College of Science and Engineering at Loyola Marymount University (LMU) is continually seeking applications for part-time faculty instructors in the Department of Mechanical Engineering. There may not be openings at this time, but your application will be kept on file. Applications will be reviewed as specific openings occur. The position, when needed, is assumed to be a one-semester appointment, and will typically involve teaching 1-2 courses. Part-time faculty may be needed in the following areas of mechanical engineering: dynamical systems, manufacturing, materials, mechanical design, solid mechanics, and thermal fluid systems. The department currently offers programs leading to the B.S.E. (ABET accredited), M.S., and combined B.S.E.+M.S. degrees in mechanical engineering and has six full-time faculty members, numerous adjunct faculty who work in industry, and approximately 160 undergraduates and 20 graduate students. The department is committed to offering pedagogically effective, engaging, and transformative learning opportunities for our students in both the practical and theoretical aspects of the field. Undergraduates complete a one-year, hands-on capstone design sequence and most participate in faculty-mentored research and/or student-led design clubs, including ASME, SAE student design competitions. Graduate students participate in faculty-mentored research through a thesis degree option. Students are supported personally and professionally through several first-to-go programs, the thriving Society of Women Engineers, and the National Society of Black Engineers.
