Job Description:

The Electrical and Computer Engineering program at York College of Pennsylvania invites applications for a tenure track Assistant Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering beginning in either January or August 2027, with ongoing in-person teaching assignments in the fall and spring terms each year.

Our ABET-accredited Electrical and Computer Engineering program has roughly 100 undergraduate students, five full-time faculty, and three supporting staff members. Our hands-on program is known for small class sizes and extensive student/faculty interaction. Students participate in design/build/test projects throughout the curriculum, culminating in a year-long Capstone Design project. Nearly all of our instruction occurs in versatile state-of-the-art lecture/laboratory spaces. Our two-semester co-operative education requirement is a key component of our overall academic program, and is a substantive expression of our focus on pragmatic applications of concepts and skills embedded throughout our curriculum.
