Job Description
** The Opportunity
** The Aerospace Engineering Department in the College of Engineering at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University (ERAU) – Daytona Beach invites applications for a non-tenure-track (NTT) faculty position in the area of Space Systems.  It is anticipated that this teaching faculty position will be filled at the Assistant or Associate Professor level, although more experienced candidates may be considered. Candidates must hold a terminal degree in engineering, with preference given to those candidates who hold a Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering.  

For this position, however, the Ph.D. degree could be replaced by an M.S. and substantial industry experience.  Preference will be given to a candidate who will lead a student-based, small satellite (e.g., Cube Sat) development program with a regular cadence. Therefore, the program will encompass the full life cycle of small satellite development to include conceptual and hardware design, fabrication and testing, spacecraft deployment and operations, and ultimately, decommissioning.

The successful candidate will also teach related undergraduate courses in the astronautics track, such as Spacecraft Design, Spacecraft Systems, and Space Environmental Applications. The department seeks candidates who can expand its expertise in small satellite development, deliver student-centered teaching, and who have a keen interest in undergraduate student engagement.
