A demonstrated research and teaching experience is required, and advising experience is a plus. Review of applications will begin January 1, 2018.  We are especially interested in receiving applications from women and minority candidates. Please submit a cover letter, a CV, one writing sample, and three letters of recommendation. To apply, please go to https://apply.interfolio.com/46267.
