Assistant Professor in Manufacturing, Materials, or Mechanics
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info. Remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "How To Apply", "Diversity", "Employment Requirements", "About University Of Minnesota" etc unless they contain substantive content relevant to sections? The instructions: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we should strip those sections.
We need to extract content: About The Job (intro). That could be "About the role". Provide prose.
Responsibilities: Not explicitly listed; maybe implied? The posting mentions "Successful candidates will complement our department’s current expertise and grow strategic synergistic collaborations across the department and the University. The candidate will also be considered for a graduate appointment in the Chemical Engineering and Materials Science Department." That's more about role expectations. Could be responsibilities. Also "A successful candidate is expected to have the potential to conduct vigorous, innovative research and to effectively teach graduate- and undergraduate-level courses to a diverse group of engineering students." That's responsibilities.
Qualifications: There's a Qualifications section with Required and Preferred.
Skills: Not explicit; maybe we can infer from qualifications? But we should not create sections without real specific content. So if no explicit skills list, we omit Skills.
Benefits: There's Pay And Benefits section with details about benefits. So we can have Benefits heading with list of benefits.
Pay: There's Pay Range: $115,000 - $130,000 annually ; depending on education/qualifications/experience. Also note about initial pay may not reach maximum. So we can have Pay heading with that info.
Schedule: There's Time Appointment: 100% Appointment Position Type: Faculty and P&A Staff. That's schedule info (full-time). So we can have Schedule heading.
We must not include headings with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual content.
We need to use for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep details like Ph.D. by August 2027, etc.
We need to remove duplicated lines. Ensure not to include navigation etc.
Let's extract substantive content:
From "About The Job":
- The Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities (UMN ME) invites highly qualified applicants for a full-time, tenure-track assistant professor position in manufacturing, materials, or mechanics.
- Successful candidates will complement our department’s current expertise and grow strategic synergistic collaborations across the department and the University.

- The candidate’s research and teaching activities should enhance the department’s mission (link). (We can keep the URL maybe as plain text? It's substantive; we can keep as is.)
We could keep the link as plain text inside
.
From Qualifications:
- Required Qualifications: A Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering or a related field, or evidence of completion of Ph.D. requirements by August 2027.
- Preferred Qualifications: An established track record of publication in peer-reviewed journals; experience in teaching or serving as a teaching assistant for engineering courses; experience in preparing proposals or/and fellowship applications.
From About The Department (maybe not needed for sections but could be part of About the role? It's descriptive of department; could be included in About the role prose. It's substantive. We'll include it in About the role.
From Pay And Benefits:
- Pay Range: $115,000 - $130,000 annually ; depending on education/qualifications/experience
- Time Appointment: 100% Appointment
- Position Type: Faculty and P&A Staff
- The University Offers a Comprehensive Benefits Package That Includes Competitive wages, paid holidays, and generous time off
- Continuous learning opportunities through professional training and degree-seeking programs supported by the Regents Tuition Benefit Program
- Low-cost medical, dental, and pharmacy plans
- Healthcare and dependent care flexible spending accounts

- Employee wellbeing program
- Excellent retirement plans with employer contribution
- Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) opportunity
- Financial counseling services
- Employee Assistance Program with eight sessions of counseling at no cost
- Employee Transit Pass with free or reduced rates in the Twin Cities metro area
- While our salary ranges provide a framework, it is important to note that most of the time, the initial pay may not reach the maximum of the range. This approach ensures that compensation reflects the value and unique contributions of each candidate while maintaining equity within our organization.
- As part of our commitment to fair and equitable compensation, please be aware that the salary offered to incoming candidates will be based on their individual credentials and experience.
We need to separate Pay and Benefits sections.
Pay: include Pay Range and note about initial pay may not reach maximum, salary based on credentials.
Benefits: list all benefits.
Schedule: Time Appointment: 100% Appointment; Position Type: Faculty and P&A Staff (maybe schedule). Could also include that it's full-time tenure-track assistant professor.
We'll create sections:
About the role
with containing the About The Job paragraph plus department description maybe.
Responsibilities
with containing expectations: complement expertise, grow collaborations, considered for graduate appointment (not joint), conduct vigorous innovative research, effectively teach graduate and undergraduate courses, enhance department’s mission.
We could also make a
for responsibilities if multiple items. But we can keep prose.
Requirements
maybe same as Qualifications? The instructions list Requirements as a possible heading. We have Required Qualifications. Could put under Requirements. But we also have Qualifications heading. To avoid duplication, we need to decide: The instructions say use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have both Requirements and Qualifications if content differs. We have Required Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications. Could treat Required as Requirements, Preferred as Qualifications? Or combine both under Qualifications. Safer: Use Qualifications heading for both required and preferred, and omit Requirements if no separate content. But we have required qualifications content; we could put under Requirements heading. Then Qualifications heading could be for preferred? But that splits. Better to follow typical: Requirements = required qualifications; Qualifications = preferred qualifications or additional qualifications. We'll do that.
Thus:
Requirements
with - for required: Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering or related field, or evidence of completion of Ph.D. requirements by August 2027.
Qualifications

Then sections.
Make sure to preserve all substantive info: include link to department mission (https://cse.umn.edu/me/about). Include note about not joint appointment. Include Ph.D. by August 2027. Include details about department size etc.
Let's write About the role paragraph:
"The Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities (UMN ME) invites highly qualified applicants for a full-time, tenure-track assistant professor position in manufacturing, materials, or mechanics.

The candidate’s research and teaching activities should enhance the department’s mission (https://cse.umn.edu/me/about). UMN ME provides a high-quality student experience grounded in a research-integrated education, with learning opportunities that leverage the unique aspects of our department and state. Our research encompasses all areas of mechanical engineering and addresses societal challenges in energy transition, environment and sustainability, human health, next-generation manufacturing, and robotics and mobility. The department is home to 44 faculty members, 247 graduate students, and 458 undergraduate students. It is part of the College of Science and Engineering, a highly interdisciplinary college comprising 12 departments. The University is among the largest public research universities in the country, offering a multitude of opportunities for study and research. Located at the heart of one of the nation’s most vibrant, diverse metropolitan communities, students on the campuses in Minneapolis and St. Paul benefit from extensive partnerships with world-renowned health centers, international corporations, government agencies, and arts, nonprofit, and public service organizations."
