Teaching Track Opportunities 2012-2013

Applications are invited for two teaching-track positions in Computer Science, beginning Fall 2013. This is a renewable, career-oriented position with an initial appointment for three years. We seek highly qualified applicants with a strong commitment to excellence in teaching and the ability to teach at all levels in the undergraduate curriculum.

Applicants for the position must have a Ph.D. in Computer Science or a related field, and demonstrated excellence in teaching Computer Science courses. Teaching-track appointments are typically at the rank of Assistant Teaching Professor, with the possibility of promotion to the ranks of Associate Teaching Professor and Teaching Professor. None of these teaching-track ranks are tenured. Applicants seeking a tenure-track position at a research university are not a good match for the needs of this position.

In order to receive full consideration, applicants should submit a letter of application, curriculum vitae, a statement of teaching philosophy, and the names and email addresses of three or more individuals whom the applicant has asked to provide letters of reference. Applicants should arrange for reference letters to be sent directly to the contact below. This information should be sent by January 31, 2013.

Additionally, applicants are encouraged to submit a video sample of their teaching. This enables applicants to add another dimension to their application. Since the person who will eventually fill this position will be expected
to be an excellent classroom teacher, the video sample is an opportunity for candidates to show off their talents in a way other than traditional on paper means.
