The School of Electrical and Computer Engineering announces the following faculty openings. Georgia Tech is an equal opportunity, affirmative action employer.
Faculty Position in Educational Technology and Cognitive Engineering
The Georgia Tech School of Electrical and Computer Engineering has an opening at the assistant professor level for faculty specializing in educational technology and cognitive engineering. The School is ranked in the top 10 nationally, and has a broad and diverse faculty and a vital research program. We have an established research thrust in educational technology, including the Arbutus Center for Distributed Engineering Education, and have extensive developments in a wide range of educational technology using advanced computational, signal processing, networking and/or database technologies. The position will be within the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering; the faculty member will require degrees in Electrical and Computer Engineering or related fields, and demonstrated ability and interest in contributing to the teaching and research activities of at least one of its technical interest groups, including disseminating research findings to the Electrical and Computer Engineering community.
This faculty position is intended to complement Arbutus’ current educational technology programs by providing the opportunity for a young faculty member to research how these technologies can best be applied to improve teaching and learning in a variety of educational settings, including on-campus and distance university education, self-directed learning for adults, and K-12. Thus, this faculty member should also have demonstrated research ability and interest in examining when and how technology can contribute to educational systems and its impact on the organization of education systems, instructional pedagogy, and student learning. The faculty member should be prepared to establish a research program which may include controlled studies of learning using educational technology, longitudinal studies and ethnographic observations of instructor and student needs in educational technology, and cognitive engineering models of educational systems, in support of improving the design, deployment and integration of technologies contributing to education.
It is anticipated that this faculty member will participate in Georgia Tech’s new interdisciplinary Cognitive Engineering Center as its lead in the domain of education, complementing its other thrusts in aerospace and biomedical engineering. This center will provide an additional community for this faculty member to collaborate in development of cognitive engineering methods and models and their application to education. It is anticipated that the faculty member will also join in teaching interdisciplinary graduate courses in cognitive engineering, and is invited to develop a new graduate course and, ultimately, graduate programs, in the design of technology to support educational systems.
