The Communication Studies Department and the Center for Communication and Information Technology (CCIT) seeks to fill a tenure track position at the assistant professor level in the area of New Media.

The ideal candidate should be able to teach a combination of undergraduate and graduate courses, which will not only develop both beginning and advanced practical skills, but will also examine the theoretical dimensions of New Media. In addition, the candidate should be able to situate technical developments in New Media within broader cultural and societal domains, and be prepared to educate students for global and multicultural communities.
