New York University Senior Teaching Fellow in Computer Science and/or Electrical Engineering in United States

NYU London invites applications for a Senior Teaching Fellow position in Computer Science and/or Electrical Engineering to begin in August 2026. The appointed faculty member will support students participating in the NYU Global Gateway Program in London (https://www.nyu.edu/admissions/undergraduate-admissions/london-global-gateway-program.html) . NYU London (NYUL) is the hiring employer. This is a one-year appointment that is renewable, depending upon department need and satisfactory performance. Teaching commences in the Autumn term (Sept-Dec 2026).

Responsibilities

  • Teach two undergraduate courses in computer science or electrical engineering each semester (Fall and Spring) from among:

  • CS-UY 1114 Introduction to Programming

  • Introduction to Engineering and Design

  • Data Structures and Algorithms

  • Object Oriented Programming

  • Introduction to Computer Science

  • Introduction to Electrical and Computer Engineering

  • Engage in 1 on 1 and group activities supporting students’ academic achievement at NYU London (Year-round)

  • Assist with coordination of other Computer Science and Electrical Engineering courses

  • There are no formal research expectations in this role, but selected candidates are expected to engage in the intellectual life at NYU London and Global Programs

  • Advise independent research as needed for upper class students

    Overview of CS and Engineering curriculum for LGG first-years:

This faculty position involves delivering a comprehensive curriculum that bridges foundational scientific theory with hands-on technical application across the computer science and engineering disciplines. Instruction focuses on developing core competencies in software development—ranging from introductory programming and computer science principles to complex data structures, algorithms, and object-oriented paradigms—integrated with a rigorous mathematical sequence including Calculus for Engineers and Discrete Mathematics. Furthermore, the role encompasses teaching introductory engineering design, mechanics, and electrical engineering, requiring a pedagogy that emphasizes experiential learning, collaborative projects, and the synthesis of mathematical analysis with physical prototyping to prepare students for the multifaceted challenges of a modern engineering career.

Teaching Information

Instructors are encouraged to use a variety of pedagogical techniques within the course guidelines that will be shared with successful candidates. These typically include a combination of lecture-, discussion-, and workshop-based class sessions, as well as various student activities.

Instructors are expected to teach in person unless there is a university or location specific change in academic delivery required by outside circumstances (i.e. transportation strike, public health emergency, or major building renovations).

Expectation of Hours

Courses are 4 credits each, corresponding to approximately 50 hours per semester. The semesters are 15 weeks long (14 weeks of teaching plus an exam week) and there are 2hrs 30 minutes of classroom instruction each week per courseIn addition to the time required for instructor development, course preparation, classroom instruction, and marking and providing feedback to students, the instructor is required to hold a minimum of two set 60-minute “office hours” at NYU London per week which will include two 20-minute meetings with each student per semester.

Contract Information

Teaching fellow is contracted with NYUL, on a fixed term from 1 August to 31 May. Fellows would teach up to 5 courses or equivalent per academic year on a fixed salary basis, equivalent to 0.8 FTE, 4 days per week. NYUL reserves the first right for course scheduling as the primary (though not necessarily exclusive) employer.

Applicants should have a PhD in computer science, electrical engineering, mathematics, or an equivalent relevant field. It is expected that the post-holder will ideally have 2 to 3 years of effective experience teaching at the university level; experience teaching American undergraduates is helpful.

Please submit a 1-page cover letter, CV, Teaching Evaluations, 1-page Teaching Philosophy Statement, 1-2 pages of teaching materials for a class you have taught (either a lesson plan, assignment prompt, or writing resources) that are suggestive of your pedagogical values, and the names and contact information for three references, via Interfolio at apply.interfolio.com/180109 .
