Interpersonal Communication/Public Health (Tenure-Track)
The Department of Communication Studies at The College of New Jersey (TCNJ), Ewing, New Jersey, invites outstanding applications for a full-time, tenure-track Assistant Professor position in Interpersonal Communication to begin in Fall, 2017.
The successful applicant will have a Ph.D. in Interpersonal Communication and work closely with TCNJ's new interdisciplinary major in Public Health, as well as the post bachelor's and post master's certificate program in Public Health. In addition to a teaching and research specialization in Interpersonal Communication, candidates are required to have expertise in an area that can contribute to teaching and scholarship within Public Health. These areas include but are not limited to: family communication, health communication, population health, or crisis communication. These areas also include but are not limited to research specializations in health disparities in underprivileged populations, end-of-life/palliative care, loss and grief communication, doctor/patient communication, social support, health information technology, or communication related to various health contexts. Preferred candidates will be able to teach our introductory course in communication theory. A typical semester teaching load is three courses, although TCNJ provides opportunities for faculty to earn a one-course teaching release annually to support student and faculty research. A doctorate is required for appointment (ABD status will be considered; however, degree must be conferred prior to start date).
