Faculty Job

Hot off the press is the following job within our department. If you know anyone who is qualified for this position, please feel free to contact me for a chat. Please do note, however, that this is only a one-year position for a faculty member on research leave. I don't believe that there is an opportunity to stay beyond one year. Nevertheless, it should be an excellent opportunity for a young scholar wanting some teaching experience.
