The Department of Communication at the University of Massachusetts Amherst invites applications for a tenure-track Assistant Professor position to begin September 1, 2014, with responsibilities for teaching and supervision at the undergraduate and graduate levels. The Department offers BA, MA, and PhD programs on a multi-cultural campus. For both positions, the ability to collaborate on and eventually lead interdisciplinary, grant-funded projects is desirable.

POSITION: SOCIAL INTERACTION AND CULTURE
We invite applications from scholars who theorize and conduct research at the nexus of communication and the environment, health, the family, religion, or related social concerns. Expertise in qualitative methodology is required, including the ability to instruct and supervise graduate research. The successful applicant's work will complement current faculty strengths in the ethnography of communication, social interaction, and intercultural communication.
Review of applications will begin on October 15, 2013 and will continue until the positions are filled. Applications should include a letter of interest, a CV, evidence of teaching effectiveness, one article-length example of research, and three letters of reference. All materials should be submitted through the Academic Jobs Online website at www.academicjobsonline.org/ajo<https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo>.  A completed PhD in Communication or closely allied field is required by the start of the appointment.
