DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNICATION
ONE OR MORE TENURE��TRACK POSITIONS AT THE ASSISTANT, ASSOCIATE OR FULL 
PROFESSORSHIP

THE SCHOOL OF COMMUNICATION AND INFORMATION at Rutgers, The State University of 
New Jersey, invites applications from scholars who value a climate of 
cross��departmental collaboration and interdisciplinary commitment to the 
development of discoveries and new ideas in response to local and global 
challenges. Global media and democracy, social media interaction and 
collaborative design, and health and wellness are school��wide initiatives 
recently introduced. The school embraces Rutgers' goals of diversification of 
its communities and programs and encourages applicants who would address these 
goals. The school offers six degree��granting programs of study and is home to 
more than 50 faculty within its three academic departments--Communication, 
Journalism and Media Studies, and Library and Information Science.

THE DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNICATION invites applications that complement the 
faculty's synergies in the areas of Community, Connections, and Collaboration, 
which are informed by theory and research in the areas of human communication 
technologies, organizational communication, interpersonal communication/social 
interaction, and health communication. An ideal candidate has an active 
research program that combines two of these four department foci. Candidates 
have the potential to become affiliated with one of our three research centers, 
including the Center for Mobile Communication Studies (CMCS), The Center for 
Organizational Development & Leadership (ODL), and the Center for Communication 
& Health Issues (CHI).

SUBMISSIONS: Applications should be submitted in electronic format. Include 
letter of application, CV, up to three representative publications, and names 
and contact information of three references. The applicant's program of 
research should complement the research foci of current faculty. Senior level 
applicants should provide integrative leadership in research, instruction, and 
external funding. Letter of application should address these points, and 
clearly articulate the candidate's fit to departmental and school��wide 
research interests. Candidates should have a Ph.D. in hand or firmly expected 
by August 2010. Duties of the successful candidate, at both junior and senior 
rank, include departmental, school, and university assignments in teaching, 
scholarship, and service, consistent with university and school policy for 
tenure��track appointments. Submit to: 
http://comminfo.rutgers.edu/facultysearch no later than December 1, 2009.

The school's two other departments are also conducting faculty searches:
THE DEPARTMENT OF JOURNALISM AND MEDIA STUDIES is looking to hire in the 
following two areas: Global Media & Democracy and Digital Media & Society. 
Research foci include, but are not limited to: Social media, transmedia and 
convergence; New media policy; International journalism; Gaming as social 
practice; Networked journalism; Community media and public culture; Global, 
local, and regional cultural production.

THE DEPARTMENT OF LIBRARY & INFORMATION SCIENCE seeks faculty candidates who 
wish to take the future of information and information applications in their 
hands. Areas of particular interest to the department include (but are not 
limited to): Interaction with information at individual, social, and cultural 
levels; Information access in digital environments; Human computer interaction; 
Children, information, schools, and libraries.

Applicants whose research interests fall across departmental boundaries are
