Instructional Faculty
CSU-Onb
Instructor job in San Francisco, CA
The following information is a template for the Job Advertisement and information will appear as submitted below. Edit the following information in red as needed before submitting for review and approval by Faculty Affairs.
The purpose of a job advertisement is to:
Describe the kind of person the department/school is looking for.
Communicate who the department/school is, its mission and how it aligns with the values of San Francisco State University and the greater community.
Introduction
We recommend starting with a paragraph that highlights the position as an exciting opportunity with a welcoming tone that connects the applicant to the University.
Include a section about the department-i.e. “who we are”.
We recommend highlighting the existing diversity present in the department and at the University. (See two samples for text).
Sample 1: The Department of Women and Gender Studies at San Francisco State University was founded in 1976, one of the first such departments in the United States. Forged out of transformative activism and scholarship, the department uses interdisciplinary approaches and foregrounds transnational and intersectional relationships among gender, race, sexuality, nation, labor, technologies, and globalization. Our students engage in challenging academics, work closely with professors, and lead community initiatives. We encourage intellectual collaborations within the department, as well as across the profession, and also support applications for internal and external funding to support research productivity.
Sample 2: The Latina/Latino Studies Department (originally Raza Studies) was established in the Fall of 1969, as part of the College of Ethnic Studies, after the longest student strike in the history of the United States. From November 1968 through April 1969 the Black Student Union, the Third World Liberation Front, select staff and faculty, and members from the larger Bay Area community, organized and led a series of actions against systematic discrimination. The College of Ethnic Studies was created as a response to the demands of students as well as community members who called for the creation of academic programs that address the experiences and histories of under-served communities in the San Francisco Bay Area. SF State's Latina/Latino Studies department is the first department of its kind on any four-year college campus.
Responsibilities
Include the special nature of the position if relevant (e.g. cluster hire) at the end of this paragraph.
Qualifications
To optimize the diversity in your applicant pool, we suggest that you keep the required qualifications to a minimum (maybe only the required terminal degree) and expand your preferred qualifications. This approach gives candidates from non-traditional backgrounds an opportunity to distinguish themselves in a variety of ways, and gives the departments the most flexibility in evaluating the applicants. However, this approach will require an in-depth discussion by the committee ahead of time about any weighting of the preferred qualifications, and the development of strong rubric based on all the qualifications in the job ad.
Preferred qualifications: Add additional preferred qualifications.
The job ad and position description complement each other. Both should be posted on the department website as separate materials.
Highlights are required fields and provide departments/schools with options to suit their particular discipline.
