Job Description
Assistant Professor of Public Administration with focus on Emergency Management

The Department of Political Science and Public Administration at the University of North Carolina, Pembroke seeks an assistant professor of public administration with the ability to teach in the area of emergency management. This position will be responsible for teaching a mix of courses in emergency management and public administration at the graduate level, methodology courses at the graduate and undergraduate level, and at least one of our general education courses (Introduction to Political Science, American National Government, or State and Local Government and Administration).

The area of teaching and research specialization is open. Preferences will be given to candidates who are focused clearly on the administration side of the discipline and to those who can teach methodology. Preferences will also be given to candidates who show how their research may connect and enhance community resiliency through emergency preparation at all government levels. Successful candidates must show excellence in both online teaching as well as in the traditional classroom since this position will require the candidate to consistently teach in both learning platforms. While the teaching load for the university is 4-4, course release time is provided for those who teach graduate courses. The expected teaching for this position is three to five graduate courses each year and one or more undergraduate course each year, with most courses offered on a predictable rotation.

UNCP is a regional university serving rural North Carolina that emphasizes excellence in teaching. The Department of Political Science and Public Administration serves several programs including a B.A. program with four different concentrations and a Master of Public Administration program with four different concentrations. Additionally, the department actively contributes to a growing B.I.S. program in Public and Non-profit Management and Administration. Courses for the department are offered both on campus and in online formats. As such, relocation to the area is expected.

To apply, applicants must complete the application for employment form found at https://jobs.uncp.edu where they will be instructed to submit a CV, a writing sample, and a teaching portfolio that demonstrates competence in online teaching and in person, as well as past course evaluations (if applicable). Candidates who are selected after the first round of consideration will be asked to submit three letters of recommendation for consideration. For questions, please contact the chair of the department, Dr. Emily Sharum (emily.sharum@uncp.edu).
