Purpose of Position
The Department of English at the University of North Dakota is seeking a full-time Teaching Assistant Professor to teach first-year writing, beginning August 16, 2024. This is a 9-month non-tenure track position, contingent upon the availability of funding.

Established in 1883, the University of North Dakota is the oldest research university in North Dakota. It is the state's flagship university and is classified by the Carnegie Foundation as having high research activity. Founded with a strong liberal arts foundation, UND has grown into a prominent scientific research university and was recently ranked among the top 100 public and top 25 most innovative universities in the country by U.S. News and World Report and is widely regarded as among the top universities in the American Northern Plains region. UND offers degrees in more than 225 fields of study with nearly 14,000 students. It is the home of the state's only School of Law. The School of Medicine has major initiatives in rural and public health, and Aerospace is home to one of the first and largest unmanned aerial vehicle programs in the world.

Duties & Responsibilities
With a Composition Program that supports a high-impact educational experience for all UND undergraduates, we seek candidates who have academic knowledge of the teaching of writing, recent experience teaching composition at the undergraduate level, and extensive experience using teaching technologies in both face-to-face and online instruction. Candidates must present evidence of effective teaching and thoughtful engagement with student learning.

This Teaching Assistant Professor will teach four sections each semester in the academic year for 8 total sections. Each semester, depending on Departmental need, a portion of those sections may be taught as asynchronous online sections with the remainder to be taught on the UND campus.

The successful candidate will have a Master's Degree in English, recent experience teaching College Composition, and will teach the following courses offered by UND's Composition Program: English 110 (an introduction to academic writing, reading, and critical thinking) and English 130 (a research writing course that highlights audience and purpose as students write for public audiences). As part of the composition program, this instructor will work closely with the directors of composition and the department's office manager to meet programmatic goals and university requirements, including use of learning management technologies and digital tools.

Minimum Requirements
Master's Degree in English by August 15, 2024.
Recent experience teaching College Composition.
Successful completion of a Criminal History Background Check
In compliance with federal law, all persons hired will be required to verify identity and eligibility to work in the US and to complete the required employment eligibility verification form upon hire. This position does not support visa sponsorship for continued employment.

Preferred Qualifications
Evidence of effective teaching and commitment to active, individualized student learning, including an emphasis on writing as revision and student conferences.
Evidence of effective online writing instruction and demonstrated understanding of best practices for online asynchronous writing instruction.
Familiarity with—and evidence of effective use of—digital technologies for teaching.
Demonstrated effectiveness in responsible course management: meeting deadlines and program requirements; effective communication with students and program administrators; punctual evaluation of student work.
Academic knowledge of Composition Studies, including an understanding of rhetorical approaches to the teaching of writing. Familiarity with Graff and Birkenstein's They Say/I Say is desirable.
Evidence of effective teaching of composition and close reading using complex, non-literary academic texts.
Evidence of effective teaching of academic research writing, with emphasis on teaching information literacy and effective use of library resources.
