Those interests would be demonstrated in both the person’s teaching assignments and research/ creative work. We seek to educate students to value the traditions of a free and responsible media that support a democratic society, and to become ethical and productive members of the news media and their communities.

This colleague will teach two courses per semester in the newsgathering and media studies sequences at both the undergraduate and graduate levels and serve on graduate committees. For this position a Ph.D. is preferred and professional experience in journalism with a new media emphasis is highly desired. Candidates holding a master’s degree with extensive professional experience in digital media will be considered. Any candidate appointed will have demonstrated an ability to think through larger conceptual issues raised by digital media and have a clear agenda for peer-reviewed research publications and/or juried creative production that can lead to tenure.
