To facilitate this highly interactive faculty/student relationship, the typical teaching load is three 4 credit-hour courses per semester. Student advising is supported by professional staff. Undergraduate faculty share in the delivery of the general education program, most often by teaching within the university's interdisciplinary core. Evidence of successful teaching, or a strong potential for successful teaching, is required for all positions. Experience teaching at a smaller, private institution is highly preferred.

  • Substantive, relevant professional experience.
Responsibilities:

The successful candidate should be prepared to teach across the undergraduate and graduate Criminal Justice programs. Applicants should show excellence in teaching and a commitment to mentoring students. In addition to teaching, candidates for this position will engage in other duties of full-time faculty, including service and professional activity.

Review of applications will begin immediately and continue until the position is filled.

All benefit-eligible faculty positions offer a competitive salary and excellent benefits including health, dental, vision, life, long term disability, a 403(b) retirement plan through TIAA, and tuition remission.
