Adjunct Faculty Position in Mechanical Engineering Institution: Hubei Polytechnic University Location: Huangshi, China Category: Faculty-Engineering-Mechanical Engineering Application Due: Open Until Filled Type: Adjunct/Part-Time Hubei Polytechnic University (HBPU for short) invites applications for part time instructors to teach undergraduate course in Mechanical Engineering in Fall 2024. Candidates will be working in Huangshi, Hubei Province, China, in a joint program with a U.S. university. Course Description:

1. Physics I（96 teaching hours, 8 weeks, between September-November, 2024） – Part-time instructor to teach one or more courses. First semester of a one-year calculus-based introduction to physics. Topics normally include vectors, kinematics, Newton’s laws of motion, work and energy, momentum, rotational and orbital motion, torque, angular momentum, and oscillations.
2. Introduction to Engineering（96 teaching hours, 8 weeks, between September-November, 2024）– Part-time instructor to teach one or more courses. This course provides engineering students with the communication skills needed in college and throughout their careers, and introduces them to the profession of engineering, computer skills, report generation, public speaking, leadership and teamwork skills are covered. This course is the introductory course taken by all Engineering majors, and along with a general introduction to engineering tools concepts of voltage, current, resistance and reactance are covered. Applications covered include basic circuits including power and energy calculations.
3. Digital Fundamentals（96 teaching hours, 8 weeks, between September-November, 2024） – Part-time instructor to teach one or more courses. The design and analysis of digital systems that the bit, gate, flip-flop level with particular emphasis on the application of digital systems. Topics include Boolean algebra, logic gates, and integrated circuit design including the use of Karnaugh maps to minimize the number of gates; combinational systems such as arithmetic circuits, decoders, encoders, and multiplexers, and dynamic logic blocks as latches, Flip-Flops, counters and shift registers. Laboratory projects will involve designing, building, and testing of some digital systems.
