The English Department at the Brooklyn campus of Long Island University
anticipates, pending budget approval, a September 2009 opening for a
tenure-track Assistant Professor in Composition and Rhetoric, with
experience in Writing Center or Writing Program administration.
Candidates with a background in Classical Rhetoric preferred. A Ph.D.
in Composition and Rhetoric or English with specialization in
Composition and Rhetoric is required.
At LIU Brooklyn, the Directors of the Writing Center and Writing Program
rotate in three-year terms. We are seeking a colleague who will become
the WC or WP Director within 1-2 years of being hired. All faculty are
expected to teach composition as well as advanced undergraduate and
graduate courses. The position of Assistant Professor requires nine
credit-hours of teaching per semester, research and publication, and
active service to the University. The Directors of the WC and WP teach
six credits per semester.
Long Island University is a private, non-sectarian university located in
the heart of revitalized downtown Brooklyn. The Brooklyn campus is home
