Preference will be given to candidates that have completed a post-doctorate and can teach both theoretical and applied courses in interactive media, and hence practical experience in the field will be considered an advantage.

Only candidates that are expected to have completed their Ph.D. by October 2015 will be considered. While a Ph.D. in communication is preferred, excellent candidates in related fields will also be considered. The language of instruction at the University of Haifa is Hebrew, but a period of adjustment is an option.
