Assistant Professor of Mechanical
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "Current Employees: If you are currently employed..."? That's internal instruction; maybe considered application instructions? It's about internal application process; likely considered application instruction, so remove. Also remove "Please see the curriculum As Listed In Thecatalog." maybe keep? It's a reference; but it's vague. Might be considered not substantive? It says "Please see the curriculum As Listed In Thecatalog." That's a pointer; maybe we can keep as part of responsibilities? It's not specific content; better to drop. Also remove EEO statements, criminal background check, etc. Also remove "For full info follow application link." etc.
We need to extract substantive content:
Position Summary: The Mechanical and Industrial Engineering department seeks three full-time, tenure-track Assistant Professors in Mechanical Engineering. This is a full-time, benefit-eligible position with a 9-month academic appointment. Salary for these positions start at $76,000, commensurate with experience and Qualifications. University Of Wisconsin Platteville Is Part Of The Universities of Wisconsin, which has anationally top ranked retirement plan and a comprehensive benefits package.

Key Job Responsibilities: Responsibilities include teaching undergraduate engineering courses and labs, engaging in professional development activities, and providing services to the department and the university. The department offers a broad spectrum of courses from foundational level courses at the freshmen level to advanced technical electives at the senior level. The department also offers courses in the Biomedical Engineering Minor and the Manufacturing/Design Emphasis. Primary consideration will be given to candidates whose expertise aligns with the department's immediate needs in Manufacturing, Materials, and Mechanics, including a willingness to develop courses in emerging areas of Manufacturing and Mechanical Design and the ability to teach one or more of the following: Manufacturing Processes, Engineering Materials, and Design of Machine Elements. Candidates with strong qualifications in other areas of engineering that support the department's broader educational mission will also be considered.

Demonstrated ability to utilize pedagogies that are proven to increase students' engagement and retention. Excellent oral and written communication skills. Record of professional development, or willingness to develop in areas related to teaching, research, or scholarly work.
About Mechanical and Industrial Engineering... (maybe we can include as "About the role"? Actually "About Mechanical and Industrial Engineering" is a section heading but content is truncated; we have no details. So we should not include a section if content is placeholder. So skip.
Benefits: mention "benefit-eligible position", "nationally top ranked retirement plan", "comprehensive benefits package", "Relocation assistance and Trailing Partners Engagement Program are available." So we can create Benefits section with those details.
Pay: Salary start at $76,000, commensurate with experience and qualifications. Since it's specific (starting salary) we can include Pay section.
Schedule: 9-month academic appointment. That's schedule info. So include Schedule section.
Requirements vs Qualifications: The posting has "Required Qualifications". Could treat as Requirements or Qualifications. We need to decide. The instruction: use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We have Responsibilities, we have Qualifications (PhD etc). We might also have Requirements (maybe same as Qualifications). To avoid duplication, we can put the PhD etc under Qualifications. Requirements could be empty; better not to include Requirements heading if no distinct content. So we will have sections: Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Also maybe About the role? We have Position Summary which could be About the role. That's substantive. So include About the role.
Skills: Not explicitly listed; we have "Excellent oral and written communication skills." That's a skill. Also "Demonstrated ability to utilize pedagogies...". Could be under Skills. But we already have Qualifications covering PhD etc. Skills could be separate. However we might combine. The instruction: prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we include Skills as part of Qualifications? But we need to follow headings list; we can include Skills if we have content. We have communication skills and pedagogical ability. That's skills. So we can create Skills section.
Thus sections: About the role (position summary), Responsibilities, Qualifications (PhD etc), Skills (communication, pedagogical), Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
Now we need to output HTML fragment only, using for each section heading, - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
We need to decide what is list vs prose. Responsibilities: multiple items; could be list. Requirements/Qualifications: list. Benefits: list. Skills: list. Pay and Schedule: maybe prose (single sentence). About the role: prose.
We must preserve all substantive information; not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the text.
Let's extract each piece.
About the role (Position Summary):
"The Mechanical and Industrial Engineering department seeks three full-time, tenure-track Assistant Professors in Mechanical Engineering. This is a full-time, benefit-eligible position with a 9-month academic appointment. Salary for these positions start at $76,000, commensurate with experience and Qualifications. University Of Wisconsin Platteville Is Part Of The Universities of Wisconsin, which has anationally top ranked retirement plan and a comprehensive benefits package. Relocation assistance and Trailing Partners Engagement Program are available."
Note: Salary and benefits also appear elsewhere; we might duplicate if we also have Pay and Benefits sections. But we must preserve all substantive info; duplication is okay? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." It doesn't forbid duplication, but we should avoid unnecessary duplication? It says remove duplicated lines. So we should avoid duplicating the same exact lines. However the salary appears in position summary and also we will have Pay section. That's duplication of same info. Might be considered duplicated lines? It's same content but in different sections. Might be considered duplication; better to not repeat salary in About the role if we have Pay section. But the instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; if we omit salary from About the role, we still have it in Pay section, so it's preserved. So we can remove salary from About the role to avoid duplication. Similarly benefits mention in About the role duplicates Benefits section; we can remove that sentence from About the role. Also "benefit-eligible position" maybe part of Benefits? Could keep in About the role as it's about employment type; but we have Benefits section. Might be okay to keep "full-time, benefit-eligible position" as part of About the role; but Benefits section will list benefits. Not duplicate exact phrase. The phrase "benefit-eligible position" is not a benefit list; it's about eligibility. Could keep.
Thus About the role: "The Mechanical and Industrial Engineering department seeks three full-time, tenure-track Assistant Professors in Mechanical Engineering. This is a full-time, benefit-eligible position with a 9-month academic appointment." (We removed salary and benefits specifics.)
Now Responsibilities: list items:
- teaching undergraduate engineering courses and labs
- engaging in professional development activities
- providing services to the department and the university
- The department offers a broad spectrum of courses from foundational level courses at the freshmen level to advanced technical electives at the senior level.
- The department also offers courses in the Biomedical Engineering Minor and the Manufacturing/Design Emphasis.
- Primary consideration will be given to candidates whose expertise aligns with the department's immediate needs in Manufacturing, Materials, and Mechanics, including a willingness to develop courses in emerging areas of Manufacturing and Mechanical Design and the ability to teach one or more of the following: Manufacturing Processes, Engineering Materials, and Design of Machine Elements.
- Candidates with strong qualifications in other areas of engineering that support the department's broader educational mission will also be considered.
We need to keep all details. Some are sentences not just bullet points; but we can still put each as

Qualifications: list:
- PhD In Mechanical, Aerospace Engineering, Biomedical Engineering or a closely related field, earned by the start date of position.
- Demonstrated ability to utilize pedagogies that are proven to increase students' engagement and retention.
- Excellent oral and written communication skills.
- Record of professional development, or willingness to develop in areas related to teaching, research, or scholarly work.
Skills: we could separate communication skills and pedagogical ability; but they are already in Qualifications. Might be redundant. Better to not have Skills section if content overlaps. The instruction: prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we can omit Skills section and keep those under Qualifications. However we already have Qualifications covering PhD etc. The communication skills and pedagogical ability are qualifications/skills. So we can keep them under Qualifications. So we will not have separate Skills.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
Now Benefits: list:
- benefit-eligible position (maybe already mentioned)
- nationally top ranked retirement plan
- comprehensive benefits package
- Relocation assistance
- Trailing Partners Engagement Program
We need to preserve all specifics. Also "benefit-eligible position" maybe already in About the role; but we can keep it here as part of benefits. Might be duplication but it's a benefit aspect. To avoid duplication, we could keep it only in Benefits and remove from About the role. Let's adjust About the role to not mention benefit-eligible. So About the role: "The Mechanical and Industrial Engineering department seeks three full-time, tenure-track Assistant Professors in Mechanical Engineering. This is a full-time position with a 9-month academic appointment." (Removed benefit-eligible). Then Benefits section includes benefit-eligible.
Now Pay: Salary start at $76,000, commensurate with experience and qualifications.
Schedule: 9-month academic appointment.
