> ASSISTANT PROFESSOR, COMMUNITY STUDIES
>
> Cape Breton University (CBU) is located on Cape Breton Island, Nova
> Scotia's tourism centrepiece and home to rich Celtic, Mi'kmaq, and Acadian
> culture. CBU has a reputation for small class sizes, strong community
> involvement, and strong internal support for faculty research.
>
> The Department of Community Studies at CBU invites applications for a
> tenure-track position in Community Studies at the rank of Assistant
> Professor to commence July 2013, subject to budget approval.
>
> Community Studies courses encourage interdisciplinary, collaborative, and
> experiential learning where process and content are equally valued. A small
> group format is central to our pedagogy, bringing theoretical foundations
> and practical applications together to build skills in problem solving and
> working for positive social change. Our goal is to help students develop
> proficiency as motivated, creative community members with an understanding
> of the applicability of their experiences in the larger world. This
> pedagogy is foundational to the teaching and learning in Community Studies
> courses that form the core of the Bachelor of Arts Community Studies
> program.
>
> The successful candidate should have a PhD although ABD candidates will be
> considered. The PhD may be in any discipline; however, the School's
> Academic Plan identifies areas for future growth that include: Heritage
> Studies, Social Justice, and Sport & Human Kinetics. Expertise in any of
> these areas would be considered an asset.
>
> The successful candidate will have a record demonstrating university
> teaching experience using a process education model where the professor
> functions as an advisor and co-learner rather than a lecturer. The teaching
> load may include both on campus and online courses. The successful
> candidate will have an established research program. Research should focus
> on issues related to community development, community based research, or
> other related topics. In addition, there must be a strong commitment to
> service as demonstrated through a record of community involvement within
> the university, the discipline and the broader community.
>
> Applicants are expected to demonstrate potential and commitment with regard
> to teaching, research/creative/scholarly activities and service to Cape
> Breton University, community and profession.
>
> The union affiliation of this position is with the Cape Breton University
> Faculty Association.
>
> Qualified candidates should send a letter of application quoting the
> reference number (COM1301), a complete dossier including curriculum vitae,
> copy of academic transcripts, evidence of teaching effectiveness, a sample
> of scholarly writing and three current letters of reference (sent directly
> to CBU) to the Human Resources Department. Applications must be received by
> 4:00 p.m. November 30, 2012. Email applicants will receive a return email
> confirming receipt.
>
> All qualified candidates are encouraged to apply <
> http://www.cbu.ca/content/assistant-professor-community-studies-0#> ;
> however, Canadian citizens and permanent residents will be given priority.
> CBU is an equal opportunities employer. CBU encourages applications from
> qualified Aboriginal People, African Canadians or other persons from a
> visible minority group, persons with disabilities and women. Applicants who
> wish to be considered for this initiative should self-identify in their
> cover letter.
