Qualifications: Highly qualified candidates with a Ph.D. and an outstanding research record are invited to apply. A commitment to excellence in teaching at both the undergraduate and graduate levels is essential. Appointment is contingent on the university’s verification of credentials and other information required by law and/or university policies, including but not limited to a criminal background check.
