Tenure Track Position in Astronomy

Campion College at the University of Regina invites applications for a
probationary tenure-track appointment in astronomy at the rank of
Assistant Professor in the Department of Physics to begin July 1, 2019.
The successful candidate will have a PhD in astronomy and have a record of
a strong commitment to excellence in undergraduate teaching. Teaching
duties will primarily involve introductory and intermediate classes in
astronomy. There are also opportunities to develop higher level
undergraduate courses, and to supervise special-case graduate students,
although the Department of Physics offers neither an undergraduate major
nor a graduate program in astronomy. Excellence in research, in any area
of astronomy, and a proven ability to contribute to a team environment is
also essential.

humanities, and fine arts. The College is a fully accredited member of the
Associations of Universities and Colleges of Canada, and its graduates
receive University of Regina degrees. Campion faculty are voting members
of their respective faculties (e.g., Science, Arts, Graduate Studies) of
the University of Regina.

application, a curriculum vitae, transcripts, and evidence of both
teaching effectiveness and scholarly activities) in a single PDF file to
Dr. Allison Fizzard, Dean of Campion College, at campion.dean@uregina.ca.

letters of reference, either to be sent separately in PDF format to
