As part of a recruitment process which will yield several tenure-track appointments over the next three years, the Rice University philosophy department has been authorized to fill a tenure-track line in the normative areas of philosophy (ethics, social/political philosophy) at the associate professor or beginning or advanced assistant professor level.

The successful candidate will teach two courses per semester, one of which is typically a graduate seminar, will perform departmental and university service, and will conduct research leading to publication in philosophy. She or he will be able to take advantage of, and contribute to, some of the many opportunities for collaboration both on campus and beyond (for instance, with the Baylor College of Medicine), will contribute to the university’s entrepreneurship and leadership initiatives, and will be an enthusiastic partner in charting the department’s future course.

Applications should include a (1) letter of interest, (2) curriculum vitae, (3) writing sample, (4) research statement, (5) teaching statement, and at least three letters of reference. Optional attachments include (1) documentation of teaching effectiveness and (2) course syllabi.

Applications received by October 16th are assured full consideration. Applications will remain open until the position is filled.

Rice University is committed to diversity in hiring; women and members of under-represented groups are strongly encouraged to apply.
