Assistant Professor in Communication



The Communication program at Purchase College, SUNY seeks candidates for an
open, tenure-track position beginning in the fall semester, September 2018
subject to budgetary approval.  Application deadline is March 22, 2018.



The undergraduate Communication program (BS) prepares students seeking a
foundation in communication studies broadly and particularly as applied to
the television, public relations and advertising industries across the
commercial and non-profit sectors. We seek candidates with a solid academic
background in communication as well as professional experience in
television/multimedia production. Duties include a 3/3 teaching load that
will include video production, audience and industry courses (e.g., Video

as well as courses in the department’s undergraduate core (e.g., TV Lab). A
course release each year is provided for service as the coordinator of the
communication program.



As part of their required courses, full-time faculty supervise student
internships and senior capstone projects.  The successful candidate will
also be expected to offer electives in specific areas of expertise and
contribute to general education through courses available to non-majors.
All faculty members at the College participate in academic advising and
community service (e.g. committee work as well as College, School, and
Board of Study governance).

state-supported public institution which comprises 64 campuses.  Located 25
