About Binghamton University:
Binghamton University is a world-class institution that unites more than 130 broadly interdisciplinary educational programs with some of the most vibrant research in the nation. Our unique character - shaped by outstanding academics, facilities and community life - promotes extraordinary student success.

Beyond their talent, these classmates share a desire to shape the future through technology, insight, intellectual exploration and community service.
Job Description:
The Engineering Design Division (EDD) runs the 1st-year engineering program in the Watson College of Engineering and Applied Science. The program has over 300 1st-year students, who take four engineering courses taught by EDD faculty: Introduction to Engineering Design and Engineering Communications I in the fall semester; and Introduction to Engineering Analysis and Engineering Communications II in the spring semester. Each semester, the two courses each count as 50% of the first-year program and the students receive the same grade for both courses. The Engineering Communication courses are project-based where students work on two engineering projects in the fall and a single, semester-long project in the spring. All projects are done in small groups. Students write reports and give presentations about their projects. Engineering communications, teamwork and project management are a central focus of the projects. Instruction in technical writing, oral presentations, and research methods is provided. The Communication courses meet for two hours, once each week. Technical instruction to aid with the projects and help students decide on an engineering major is provided in the Introduction to Engineering Design and Analysis courses. These courses have one or two hours of lecture each week and a two-hour laboratory. More details about EDD can be found at: https://www.binghamton.edu/engineering-design/index.html.
EDD is committed to diversity, inclusion and a working environment that enhances productivity, creates personal and professional opportunities, and unleashes everyone's full potential. We hold the organization and each other to the highest standards of integrity, accountability, and ethical behavior.
