Candidates with experience teaching and industry experience in recognized engineering professional qualifications will be especially welcomed.

The role places a strong emphasis on effective pedagogy, clear and rigorous assessment design, the integration of digital and information systems perspectives where appropriate, and meaningful student support. The postholder will also contribute to program development, quality assurance, and other academic responsibilities within the Electronics & Communication Engineering program.
