Adjunct Instructor - MGT 103 (Education)
Job Description
An Adjunct Instructor will be hired to teach two sections of MGT 103 Introduction to Entrepreneurial Thinking. Each section of MGT 103 meets once a week for two hours, typically on Fridays, for the full Spring semester. This course is an
introductory course for Engineering majors and some Science majors at Stevens and augments their technical design courses with introductory business lessons that underpin the entrepreneurial mind.
As one of the first courses in the Stevens Engineering Core, MGT 103 is fundamental to the Charles V. Schaefer, Jr. School of Engineering and Science's commitment to instilling a sense of engineering mastery, interdisciplinary, project management, teamwork, and specific engineering skills required of the modern engineer in its Engineering graduates. It also underscores their ability to communicate the
technical aspects of a project properly and clearly. The Engineering Core is a series of courses that continue through an Engineering students' senior year.
This is an interactive, project-based, experiential class with heavy emphasis on developing and identifying business models, finding product-market fit, tailoring solutions to specific problems, and directing customer discovery. To accomplish these goals, students engage in a variety of active discussions, hands-on projects, case studies, and computer simulations. An excellent candidate is passionate about engineering education and interested in sharing that passion with others. A stellar applicant has received a degree in and has work experience in the business edge of technology, though these are not requirements.
This applicant is expected to work on-campus with students and TAs, with certain tasks such as grading student work and providing feedback on student projects extending throughout the week.
This is a fixed-term assignment for the Spring 2025 semester at Stevens Institute of Technology. Engagement in subsequent academic terms will be considered on a case-by-case, as-needed basis.
