California Polytechnic State University SLO Assistant Professor Journalism - Ethics and Emerging Media in San Luis Obispo, CA [1]

[]

Date: 2023-12

The Journalism Department in the College of Liberal Arts at California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo, is seeking applications for a full-time, academic-year, tenure-track Assistant Professor to begin September 16, 2024.

Primary duties include teaching ethics and media law. The successful candidate could also teach and develop courses in one or more areas of the journalism curriculum: media and society, news reporting and writing, and emerging technologies.

The ideal candidate will have professional media experience, university-level teaching experience and relevant scholarship. We are seeking applicants with a terminal degree in mass communication or a media-related field, or juris doctorate. We will also consider candidates nearing completion of a doctorate or outstanding candidates with a master’s degree and significant professional media experience, including practical knowledge and application of media ethics and law. Facility with multiple media platforms is preferred. Candidates are expected to demonstrate a commitment to teaching excellence; diversity, equity and inclusion; and scholarly/creative activity at the university level.

Although Cal Poly is primarily a teaching university, our faculty are expected to balance teaching with an active program of research/professional development (including publication), student supervision and advising, and participation in service activities at the department and college/university level. The typical teaching load is 12 units (three courses) per quarter, with a reduction in course load in each of the first two years to help new faculty establish an active program of research and professional development. Cal Poly strongly values diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), especially in the classroom and among its areas of study.
