Assistant Professor, Group 3
Explanation:
3系 is basically the third group within a larger group. There should be a way each university/department refers to this in English.
助教 is a rank of university faculty members roughly equivalent to an assistant professor. Professor (教授) - associate professor (准教授) - 助教. This is usually not a time-limited contract position hired by each professor (not by the university) such as research associate.
