CLINICAL ASSISTANT PROFESSOR
Department of Environmental Studies
ARTS AND SCIENCE
New York University

The Department of Environmental Studies invites applications for the position of Clinical Assistant Professor. The appointment will begin September 1, 2017, pending administrative and budgetary approval. The successful applicant will help to administer a new M.A. in Animal Studies that will launch in the fall of 2018, teach graduate and undergraduate courses, advise students, conduct research, fully participate in and contribute to the development of the Department of Environmental Studies, and provide other service to the University. The Department of Environmental Studies currently offers a major and minor in Environmental Studies and an undergraduate minor in Animal Studies (one of the first in the country). It is in the process of developing other graduate programs.

QUALIFICATIONS
We welcome candidates from a broad range of academic backgrounds. We are especially interested in candidates with research interests in Animal Studies that are integrated with broad environmental concerns. Primary academic training need not be in Animal or Environmental Studies, but there must be demonstrable evidence of a sincere and substantive commitment to working in these fields. Administrative experience in program organization and coordination, and experience in teaching graduate students, are desirable, though not necessary for appointment.

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
Candidates should apply with a cover letter, CV, three (3) confidential letters of recommendation, a teaching statement, and a writing sample. Review of applications will begin on January 10, 2017, and will continue until the search is complete. More information on applying is available at http://animalstudies.as.nyu.edu/page/employment.
