ADRIAN — Adrian College is seeking a full-time engineering faculty member for a newly established engineering department beginning in the fall.

The new department of engineering will offer in-person courses that fulfill requirements for six dual-degree engineering programs offered in partnership with the University of North Dakota in biomedical, chemical, civil, electrical, mechanical and petroleum engineering. 

“We’ve watched engineering grow faster than any program launched in recent memory,” Andrea Milner, vice president and dean of academic affairs, said in a news release. “The full-time faculty member will play a central role in building a hands-on, student-centered engineering class that responds to what students are telling us they want and what employers are telling us they need.”
