Job description

The Department of Computational, Engineering, and Mathematical Sciences is seeking Full/Part-time adjunct instructor(s) needed for teaching undergraduate and graduate courses in computer science, cybersecurity, and cyber engineering technology for Fall 2026. Most courses are taught in person with a few courses taught online either synchronously or asynchronously., A Presidential proclamation issued on September 19, 2025, imposes a $100,000 fee on new H-1B petitions filed after September 21, 2025. Please be advised that Texas A&M University will NOT pay this fee. Therefore, if you need immigration sponsorship for your employment, we recommend that you consult with your private immigration counsel at your own expense to ascertain whether your current immigration status would make a potential offer of employment from Texas A&M University subject to this fee.

In addition, on January 27, 2026, Texas Governor Abbot issued a moratorium on the filing of any new H-1B unless approved by the Texas Workforce Commission. Accordingly, if you will now or in the future require sponsorship for employment visa status, this moratorium may affect our ability to employ you should you be selected as the final candidate.
