The Physics Department at the University of Arkansas,
Fayetteville, is looking for a person committed to undergraduate
physics teaching to fill a Visiting Assistant Professor position.
This is a 3-year renewable appointment, with a 9-month base salary
of $32K/year; the possibility also exists of teaching summer
courses and/or online courses for extra compensation.
Applicants should have a Masters' (minimum) or Ph.D. (preferred)
degree in Physics or a closely related discipline, and must be able
to teach undergraduate courses and labs, such as algebra-based
physics and physics for non-science majors; the ability to teach
upper-division courses is a plus. There are no research duties
associated with this position, but the department has an active
Science Education Research team and collaboration with it would
certainly be welcome. The position will be effective August 15,
2013.
Applicants should submit a CV, including prior teaching experience
and evidence of teaching effectiveness, a statement of their
teaching philosophy, and names and addresses of three references,
as a single PDF file, to: Visiting Position Search (physics@uark.edu).
Review of applications will begin April 1, 2013.
Completed applications received by April 30, 2013
will be assured full consideration. Late applications will be
reviewed as necessary to fill the position.

action institution. All applicants are subject to public disclosure
