Note: This is a separate department from Sociology and is housed in a different College than Soc. These positions are in addition to the two positions in Soc.
The Division of Criminology and Criminal Justice (CCJ) in the College of Urban & Public Affairs at Portland State University invites applications for three tenure track Assistant Professor positions to begin September 2016. The three positions are open as a result of two retirements and a new position awarded to CCJ by the Dean of the College.
The area of specialization for one position is open. For the two remaining positions, preference will be given to candidates whose substantive research and teaching strengths are in either: a) GIS crime mapping/crime analysis, or b) courts/law.
Minimum Qualifications
Ph.D. in Criminology, Criminal Justice, or closely related field (ABD with strong assurance of completion by Summer 2016 will be considered)
University teaching experience and willingness to teach in an online format
Evidence of peer-reviewed publication agenda and policy-oriented research focus
About Criminology & Criminal Justice at PSU
The goals of the CCJ Division are to improve criminal justice related policy and decision- making (1) through rigorous research and analysis of important policy issues and (2) through the training of engaged students equipped with high-quality analytic, creative problem-solving, and critical thinking skills. In service of these twin goals, CCJ faculty actively seek out and participate in partnerships with practitioners, community organizations, public agencies, and policymakers to identify and address crime problems and improve public service delivery.
While CCJ faculty members are well-represented within the academic literature, the Division also values their tangible contributions to local, state, and national crime and crime control policy and practice. The CCJ Division offers a master’s of science degree and houses a large undergraduate program, offered in both a campus-based and a fully online format. It houses the Criminal Justice Policy Research Institute, a mechanism for fostering and disseminating faculty research, and the Portland Crime Data website, a crime analysis partnership with the Portland Police Bureau.
Portland State operates on a three-term schedule during the academic year, which commences in late September and ends in early June. The typical teaching load is 2 classes per term. Nine- month faculty positions run from September 15 to June 15, annually.
Review of applications will start September 16, 2015 and continue until all positions are filled.
To Apply
Applicants should submit a cover letter, curriculum vita, and three letters of recommendation. The cover letter should describe in some detail your research/publication agenda, teaching experience and interests, and your potential fit with the CCJ Division’s goals (as described above). Full position details and complete application instructions are available on PSU’s Employment website.
Applications can only be accepted through Portland State’s Employment website: jobs.hrc.pdx.edu/postings/16423. To learn more about CCJ visit: www.pdx.edu/hatfieldschool/criminology-criminal-justice
