Primary Purpose of Organizational Unit
The Hussman School affirms that the hiring, tenure, and promotion decisions should be the purview of the faculty and appropriate university bodies. We are a diverse, collaborative group of researchers and practitioners who address questions in political, social, and strategic communication; media processes and production; legal and regulatory issues in communication; media uses and effects; and health communication. The assistant or associate professor will become part of a vibrant team of researchers and professionals who contribute innovative ideas and solutions to the academy, classroom, and the practice.
We are also diverse in methodological approaches and welcome scholars who bridge methodological and theoretical traditions. We have strong interdisciplinary partners within the School of Information and Library Science and Gillings School of Global Public Health. In partnership with the School of Law, we operate the UNC Center for Media Law and Policy, which includes a graduate-level dual-degree program. We also have ties with Computer Science, Political Science, Psychology, Sociology, Women's and Gender Studies, Business, Public Policy and other departments and schools at the university.
In addition to robust undergraduate programs in public relations, advertising, and journalism, the Hussman School offers a Ph.D. in Media and Communication, an online M.A. in Digital Communication, and a two-year residential M.A. in Media and Communication with a focus on theory and research. The School also offers two new one-year M.A. programs in Strategic Communication and Journalism.
Position Summary
The Hussman School of Journalism and Media at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill seeks a leading strategic communication, advertising, or public relations scholar/teacher to join the faculty in Fall of 2025. The ideal candidate will have a proven research record and help to meet the high demand for strategic communication, public relations, and advertising courses among our undergraduate, master's, and doctoral students.
This tenure track/tenured position is open at the assistant or associate professor level. Initial rank and salary will be commensurate with qualifications and experience. Successful candidates for associate professor with tenure will bring academic credentials that will qualify them to earn tenure at a top-tier Research 1 public university, such as UNC Chapel Hill. Applicants at either level must hold a Ph.D. or will have completed a Ph.D. before hire and have teaching experience as an instructor of record. This nine-month position carries the possibility of additional employment during the summer months. Summer teaching is not guaranteed.
The duties for this assistant or associate professor on the research track will include conducting research in the area of strategic communication, advertising, and/or public relations. The teaching commitment would include four (4) courses per academic year (two courses per semester) at the undergraduate and graduate levels. The faculty member is expected to have an active research portfolio with publications in leading media and communication journals and presentations at leading research conferences and will be expected to mentor and advise students at the graduate and undergraduate levels, as well as chair doctoral dissertations and master's theses. Undergraduate courses may include public relations writing, principles, research, case studies, and campaigns. Graduate-level courses may include public relations theory and practice; qualitative and/or quantitative research approaches; reputation management; case studies and management; strategic writing; or insights and analytics. The assistant or associate professor also will be encouraged to develop new courses to diversify the curriculum and to reflect the fast-moving fields of public relations, advertising, and/or strategic communication.
In addition to research and teaching, service contributions include activities addressing the general needs of UNC Hussman and UNC-Chapel Hill, such as serving on committees and engaging in outreach and development. This person will also have active participation and leadership potential in national and international research and professional associations such as AEJMC, ICA, NCA, AAA, Public Relations Society of America, and the Institute for Public Relations.
