Engineering Chemistry isn’t an elective at SOACET it’s an AICTE-mandated first-year subject that every B.Tech student takes, regardless of branch, which makes the faculty teaching it central to how students form their earliest impressions of technical education. SOACET, Neemrana, Rajasthan, is currently looking to fill an assistant professor chemistry vacancy with someone who can hold that classroom well: covering material properties, reaction chemistry, and lab safety in a way that sticks with students headed into aeronautical, mechanical, and other engineering tracks. If chemistry teaching in a technical-first environment appeals to you more than a pure science department would, this role is built around that exact fit.
The teaching load centers on Engineering Chemistry as delivered to first-year students, with topics including:
Alongside lecture delivery, the role includes running weekly chemistry lab practicals, where students gain hands-on experience with titrations, synthesis experiments, and instrumentation work that requires close attention to lab safety protocols given the first-year audience.
