Here's the full posting:

*New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts’ Game Design Department
seeks to fill two full-time** faculty positions** for the 2015-2016
academic year.*

Experienced faculty applicants or seasoned professionals will be considered
for Associate Arts Professor track or Assistant Arts Professor track
depending on qualifications and interests.

Join the NYU Game Center – a passionate community of game creators,
researchers, and educators who are committed to building the world’s
greatest game design program, teaching the next generation of game
innovators, and contributing to the evolution of games as a cultural form
and game design as creative practice.

*Qualifications:*
We are seeking applicants with experience in one or more of the following
domains: game design, game development, game scholarship, and/or game
education.

As part of Tisch School of the Arts, Game Center faculty are expected to
combine teaching with an active, ongoing professional practice and/or
research in the world of games. We are looking for candidates who are
active participants in the field, doing original and innovative work as
creators and/or scholars, and who are able to draw on their professional
experience to create a compelling and effective learning environment.

Whether you are an industry veteran with triple-A experience who wants a
chance to share your knowledge of the complex craft of game development, an
independent developer exploring the experimental edge of game aesthetics,
or a critical theorist asking questions about the fundamental nature and
cultural context of games and play, we want to talk to you about joining
the NYU Game Center.

Previous teaching experience is not a requirement, but it is a strong plus.

*Duties:*
Duties include teaching five courses a year, student advisement, and
participation in departmental and school-wide committees. On-going
professional work while teaching is expected. Salary, to be negotiated,
includes an excellent benefits package.

*Deadline:*
Applicants must provide a cover letter, full C.V. and three letters of
recommendation.
All materials must be submitted by December 1, 2014.
  Finalists will be asked to submit creative work.
