Job description: With the strong backing of the Dean of Humanities and the Provost, the Rice University department of philosophy will make several tenure-track appointments, at various levels, in the next three years. We are looking for an accomplished and internationally recognized philosopher to play a leading role in this process, eventually assuming the office of department chair. Building on one area of recent strength, we seek a specialist in the philosophy of mind with a broad vision of the field – from its neurological to its phenomenological aspects – and of its place within the wider philosophical and scientific landscape. Standard course load is two courses per semester, and candidates should understand that there is an expectation of continuing excellence in scholarship, teaching, and service to the department, school, university, and profession. Rice University is committed to diversity in hiring; women and members of under-represented groups are strongly encouraged to apply. Applicants should send a letter of interest and curriculum vitae that includes the names and affiliations of three to five potential references. This should include an e-mail address and phone number at which the candidate may be reached. Applications may be sent by e-mail to [email protected] (subject line: Search A), or by mail to Search Committee A, Department of Philosophy (MS 14), Rice University, 6100 Main Street, Houston TX 77005. Electronic submissions preferred. Review of applications will begin immediately and will continue until the position is filled, but early application is encouraged.
