The University of Massachusetts Boston welcomes applications for a

potential for securing extramural funding. It would be beneficial for 
these interests to intersect with our current strengths in media, 
interpersonal, health, political, or intercultural communication.

The instructional requirements for the position include developing and

addition to advising undergraduate students in the major, this hire will 
be expected to teach two courses per semester. Additional opportunities 
exist for summer and January session courses. An interest in 
professional and institutional service is required, and professional 
experience in the communication industry could also be a plus.

Members of the Communication Department will be available to answer

begin on December 1 and will continue until a suitable candidate is 
hired. All materials must be submitted electronically; hard copy 
applications will not be considered.

teaching effectiveness and contact information for three letters of 
recommendation online.
