Position Summary

Great BayCommunity College seeks a qualified instructor to teach three non-credit courses: CBAM110M: Industrial Print Reading; NCBM111 Metrology Fundamentals; NCBM 112 Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing (GD&T) Fundamentals. These hands-on courses introduce students to mechanical measurement techniques and engineering blueprint reading. The instructor will guide students through interpreting mechanical drawings including tolerances welding symbology and Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing (GD&T) and performing precise measurements using a range of industry-standard instruments preparing them for quality inspection and manufacturing roles.

Scope of Work

The instructor will be responsible for:

• Delivering instruction across all course topics including:
  • Engineering drawing standards visualization line usage drawing layout and notes
  • Orthographic projection and multi-view drawings
  • Reading and interpreting dimensions tolerances and drawing annotations per ASME Y14.5
  • Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) reading and application
  • Reading assembly drawings and parts lists
  • Welding processes and interpreting welding representations/symbols
  • Reading and interpreting thread specifications and annotations
• Leading hands-on lab instruction in the use of measurement tools and gaging methods including:
  • Calipers (6) scales tape measures protractors and micrometers (including depth micrometers)
  • Height gages surface and angle plates
  • Various dial and other indicators
  • Thread gages
  • Attribute gaging (Go/NoGo) and sized gages such as blocks and pins
• Planning and facilitating a blend of in-class/online lecture discussion and lab activities (2 theory hours 3 lab hours weekly)
• Designing collaborative and individual projects in-class activities and real-world inspection scenarios
• Teaching students to compare blueprint dimensions/tolerances against physical part measurements to verify compliance with design specifications
• Instructing students on defining appropriate inspection methods for a given mechanical component and drawing
• Guiding students in preparing clear accurate inspection reports documenting measurement results and interpretations
• Incorporating relevant technology including word processing spreadsheets presentation platforms and CAD software where applicable
• Developing and administering reading activities with quizzes lab reports and (optionally) practical exams
• Providing timely constructive feedback on student work and inspection reports
• Evaluating student progress against the 7 stated course objectives (drawing interpretation GD&T dimensioning measurement/inspection compliance tool proficiency reporting inspection method selection)
• Maintaining course records grades and attendance in accordance with college policy
• Ensuring proper safety and handling procedures for precision measurement tools and lab equipment

Minimum Qualifications

• Associates degree in Mechanical Engineering Manufacturing Technology Quality Assurance Drafting/Engineering Design or a closely related field (Bachelors degree preferred)
• Demonstrated experience reading and interpreting engineering blueprints including tolerances GD&T and welding symbols per ASME Y14.5 standards
• Hands-on professional experience using precision measurement instruments (calipers micrometers height gauges dial indicators gaging equipment) in a manufacturing quality control or inspection setting
• Working knowledge of orthographic projection multi-view drawings and dimensioning practices
• Experience conducting or overseeing part inspection against engineering specifications
• Ability to teach both foundational and applied metrology and print-reading concepts to students with little to no prior experience
• Strong communication and hands-on lab facilitation skills
• Prior teaching training or mentoring experience preferred (college-level instruction a plus)
• ASME GD&T certification (e.g. GDTP) preferred but not required
• Familiarity with CAD software and quality documentation practices (inspection reports SPC) is a plus

Application Process

1. Submit an application online including:
   • Cover letter describing relevant SolidWorks/CAD and teaching or training experience
   • Current resume or CV
   • Contact information for two to three professional references
   • Optional: portfolio or samples of CAD/design work (models drawings or projects)
