The Department of Communication Studies at The College of New Jersey 
(TCNJ), Ewing, New Jersey, invites outstanding applications for a full 
time, tenure-track Assistant Professor position in Interpersonal 
Communication to begin in Fall, 2017.


The successful applicant will have a Ph.D. in Interpersonal 
Communication and work closely with TCNJ’s new interdisciplinary major 
in Public Health, as well as the post bachelor’s and post master’s 
certificate program in Public Health.  In addition to a teaching and 
research specialization in Interpersonal Communication, candidates are 
required to have expertise in an area that can contribute to teaching 
and scholarship within Public Health.  These areas include but are not 
limited to: family communication, health communication, population 
health, or crisis communication.  These areas also include but are not 
limited to research specializations in health disparities in 
underprivileged populations, end-of-life/palliative care, loss and grief 
communication, doctor/patient communication, social support, health 
information technology, or communication related to various health 
contexts.  Preferred candidates will be able to teach our introductory 
course in communication theory.  A typical semester teaching load is 
three courses, although TCNJ provides opportunities for faculty to earn 
a one-course teaching release annually to support student and faculty 
research.  A doctorate is required for appointment (ABD status will be 
considered; however, degree must be conferred prior to start date).


TCNJ is a highly selective, public institution that has earned national 
recognition for its commitment to excellence. TCNJ emphasizes the 
residential experience for its 5,900 undergraduate students, who benefit 
from a 12-to-1 student-to-faculty ratio and an average class size of 
only 20 students. TCNJ is one of only five public institutions included 
on Barron's Profiles of American Colleges list of the 75 "Most 
Competitive" colleges and universities in the United States, and of 
those five, TCNJ is the only primarily undergraduate institution 
included. TCNJ's campus encompasses 289 beautiful tree-lined acres in 
suburban Ewing, NJ, which is located between Trenton and Princeton in 
the historic Delaware Valley, and is convenient to Philadelphia, New 
York, the Jersey shore, and the Pocono Mountains.


To apply, send a letter of interest, curriculum vitae, a brief teaching 
statement, and the contact information for three references to the chair 
of the search committee, Dr. Keli Steuber Fazio, Department of 
Communication Studies, The College of New Jersey, 2000 Pennington Road, 
Ewing, NJ 08628. Email applications to: (commip /at/ tcnj.edu)

Review of applications begins immediately, but the deadline for initial 
consideration is October 1, 2016. To enrich education through diversity, 
The College of New Jersey is an Equal Opportunity Employer. The College 
has a strong commitment to achieving diversity among faculty and staff 
and strongly encourages women and members of underrepresented groups to
