We are looking for a senior lecturer in Mechanical engineering for a fixed-term position at the School of Science and Technology. The position is a temporary position while the recruitment of a permanent senior lecturer is ongoing.

Subject area
The subject area for this position is mechanical engineering.

Background
The Mechanical Engineering Unit at Örebro University is responsible for the teaching courses in the subject within the Master of Science and Bachelor of Science in Engineering education programs. Research within the subject is concentrated in a couple of different areas. One of these is focused on production systems and modelling of reliability and availability of such systems, and by filling this vacancy we intend to further strengthen our capacity and competence in this area of research and teaching.

Duties and responsibilities
At Örebro University, a senior lecturer is expected to spend their working hours on teaching at all levels, research, and any associated public engagement activities. In addition to education, research and collaboration, duties and responsibilities include development work, administration and continuing professional development. Moreover, teaching encompasses tutoring, examination, course development, planning and evaluation.

The candidate is expected to carry out teaching and research in the areas of production development.

The successful candidate will contribute to the development and teaching of courses on production development with an emphasis on the use of discrete event simulation and analysis of system availability modelling.

The research work involves collaborations with industrial and academic partners to develop state-of-the-art simulation models of the operation of production systems to predict system availability and costs. The research will involve joint work with academic and industrial partners to develop the modelling and its software implementation so that it supports increased sustainability in production through improved decision support. The candidate should have an engineering or computer science background and demonstrate strong competences in the reliability modelling, simulation, and optimization of production systems. The candidate should be experienced in the application of system reliability modelling and optimization methods for complex systems. Experience with developing and implementing discrete event simulation models of production systems using object-oriented programming languages is also essential. A suitable candidate has competences covering most of the above-mentioned requirements.

Qualifications
Those qualified for appointment as a senior lecturer are applicants who have demonstrated teaching expertise and been awarded a doctoral degree in a subject matter relevant for the position or have the corresponding research competence or other professional expertise that is of value in view of the subject matter of the position and the duties that it will involve.

A general eligibility criterion for teaching staff at Örebro University is that they have completed courses on teaching and learning in higher education corresponding to 10 weeks. Knowledge and skills equivalent to such courses may also be assessed to establish whether these provide eligibility.
