At Olin
Olin College is advancing Engineering for Everyone through Impact-centered Education. Located outside Boston, Olin was founded in 1997 with a mission to develop students as exemplary engineers, to drive positive change in engineering education, and to do good in the world.
In this short amount of time, Olin College has become recognized as a leader in engineering education: Olin’s graduates are recognized for their creativity, initiative, and ability to make a difference, and Olin collaborates with other institutions and individuals around the world to change engineering education. At the core of our Strategic Plan is Impact-centered Education driven by our Vision of Engineering for Everyone. We’re focused on achieving equity both within and through engineering. Would you like to join us in shaping Olin’s next chapter?
engineering
Impact-centered Education decenters both the faculty member and the student, instead aligning both around purpose, meaning, and community through making impact—together. Olin’s mission is transforming engineering education toward a world in which engineering serves everyone.
Our approach to engineering education erases boundaries between disciplines, encourages students to take control of their learning, and emphasizes human-centered design and entrepreneurship. There are no departments at Olin. Faculty not only teach in their disciplines, but also work together to co-design transdisciplinary, experimental, experiential, learning opportunities. We delight in involving students in our research, teaching, consulting, and other forms of professional work.
is for everyone.
We believe engineering education must be accessible and welcoming for people from all backgrounds, and that engineering should serve not only individuals but also society and the planet.
Today engineering education fails to address the systemic challenges that exclude so many promising young people from the engineering profession. Today engineers too often ask “How can we design it?” before asking “Should we design it?” These failures perpetuate deep inequities and addressing them will require questioning how we teach and how we do engineering, as well as who is included in these conversations. This won’t be easy. It will require collaboration, humility, and diverse ways of thinking; it also will require a willingness to take risks and think big. And that’s why we’re excited to embrace this challenge.
Join us.
Are you passionate about equity and access? Do you want to join us in reframing who can be engineers and what counts as engineering? Do you want to mentor students to better integrate engineering and other fields as they study and tackle complex technical systems and societal challenges? Come join our team.
We have multiple full-time faculty positions available at all ranks, including an open position for candidates from all disciplines, an Electrical Engineering position open to all subfields, and an Applied Mathematics position. We welcome candidates who prioritize innovative teaching and learning pedagogy research and practice. We encourage applicants to highlight how their current work aligns with or how they could contribute to Olin’s new multi-year initiative, College as a Living Lab (CaLL) focused on 1) sustainability, 2) equity, diversity and inclusion, and 3) exploration of emerging technologies to support innovative and holistic engineering education.
We plan to hold virtual events at which you can connect with Olin faculty and get to know more about our community. If you would be interested in attending any of these events, we invite you to provide us with your email address in this form. We look forward to connecting with you
We invite you to apply by providing an Olin-specific cover letter and a current CV (or resume or portfolio as appropriate). In your Olin-specific cover letter, we invite you to share why you are excited to join our community, what impact-centered education means to you, and how our Strategic Plan resonates with you. We also invite you to comment on the work you have done that relates to our College as a Living Lab (CaLL) initiative, and how you might contribute to these areas in the future. We’d like to hear about this work in regard to both the internally facing aspects of your engagement with our community and your externally facing professional work (such as research, consulting, entrepreneurship, art, etc.). Please consider your cover letter as a way for us to imagine how you might collaborate with our faculty, students, and staff as both an educator and a lifelong learner.
We will review application materials as they are received. If we find a potential match, we may contact you to request additional materials. First consideration will be given to applications received by November 15, 2024, but applications will be considered until December 15. For questions, please contact faculty.search@olin.edu. We look forward to hearing from you
