This position is renewable based on performance, with an initial appointment of up to three years. The Department has a history of welcoming and valuing long-term instructors. The expected teaching load is six semester courses per year. Review of applications will begin on December 15, 2021 and initial interviews will be conducted remotely in early January.

This information will be kept confidential and viewable only by the search committee. See Application Requirements and Instructions below.

The Department recognizes that our effectiveness and creativity are strengthened by contributions from a broad range of perspectives.
