Part Time Instructors and Adjunct Faculty

The Department of Computer Science and Engineering is looking for instructors to teach courses in software engineering, real-time operating systems, real-time software development, embedded systems, and others, both at the undergraduate and graduate level. Some of these courses are required for our new Computer Engineering degree programs. A brief description of these courses can be found on our website. The schedule of these classes can be negotiated to permit those who have a full time employment elsewhere.

A PhD in Computer Science, Computer Engineering or related field is required for teaching graduate level courses. An MS and at least 18 hours of graduate level coursework in Computer Science or Computer Engineering is required for teaching undergraduate level courses.

UNT will pay $4500-$5000 per each class. If interested, please forward your resume, cover letter, and 3 reference letters to the department, or send an email to Sally.Pettyjohn{at}unt.edu.
