EXPEDITED SEARCH -- Re-posted The Department of Philosophy at California State University, San Bernardino, is hiring a full-time, academic-year, tenure-track Assistant Professor. The area of specialization is Ancient Greek or Roman Philosophy. The area of concentration is Open, with a preference for candidates who can help the department diversify its course offerings. (So, for example, we would be pleased to see candidates who can offer courses in African, African American, East Asian, Indigenous American, Islamic, South Asian, or other less commonly taught philosophies.) Since almost all our courses are designated “Writing Intensive,” preference will be given to candidates who demonstrate commitment to and success in helping undergraduates develop as writers. TYPICAL ACTIVITIES The successful candidate will teach undergraduate classes for the university’s General Education program and for the Philosophy major. Service responsibilities in the department, including academic advising for our majors, are shared equally among all tenure-line faculty. To earn tenure, the candidate must also demonstrate increasingly intensive service at the college and university level. The department and the university expect the successful candidate to undertake a program of original research as part of achieving tenure and maintaining currency in the field.
