[acc-cca-l] Reminder: Tenure Track Position in English with expertise in digital literature and new media studies

[Christian Riegel]

[△EXTERNAL]


This is a reminder that we will begin reviewing files soon for our tenure track position as noted below. Campion College is academically fully integrated with the University of Regina. Faculty members teach on a 2-2 load with one extra course every fourth year (2-2, 2-2, 2-2, 2-3) and there is significant opportunity for a new faculty member to build a strong research career. We currently have multiple faculty holding more than one Tri-Council grant (SSHRC, NSERC), CFI, and SHRF (Sask Health Research Fund) grants, and there are internal U of R and Campion College research grants available as well. The city of Regina has a reasonable cost of living compared to other cities in Canada, especially as regards housing, and schools and other services are excellent. I will not claim that the weather is lovely all the time, however! Wikipedia erroneously claims that Campion College is a private college, but we are indeed a publicly-funded institution. As chair of the search committee, I am happy to answer questions but keep in mind that once the deadline passes I will be limited in what responses I can give.
Best wishes, Christian Riegel

Campion College at the University of Regina invites applications for a probationary tenure-track appointment at the rank of Assistant Professor in English, with expertise in digital literature and new media studies, to begin July 1, 2025. An asset will be period and/or area specialization with further expertise in Social Justice (Race, Gender, Feminisms, Disability).
Campion College seeks applicants with a strong commitment to excellence in undergraduate teaching, and a demonstrated record of excellence in research. The successful candidate will teach regularly introductory courses in English and have the opportunity to teach and develop senior undergraduate and graduate courses in their area(s) of expertise. A Ph.D., at or near completion, evidence of teaching effectiveness, and an active research program are required.
Campion College is a Jesuit Catholic community of learning dedicated to the development of the whole person – intellectually, spiritually, and socially – for service within society. Located in Regina’s scenic Wascana Park, Campion College offers courses in the humanities, social and natural sciences, and fine arts within the framework of the University of Regina. The College is a fully accredited member of the Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada and its graduates receive University of Regina degrees. Campion faculty are voting members of their respective Faculties (i.e., Arts; Science; Media, Art, and Performance).
Campion College is committed to ensuring equal opportunities for all employees and applicants for employment at the College. To that end, the College is seeking candidates who belong to designated groups, including Indigenous people, persons with disabilities, women, and members of visible and non-visible minorities. Applicants are invited to identify in a separate document how they have incorporated EDI (equity, diversity and inclusion) practices into teaching, research and service activities.
This position is intended to augment current program offerings in the English program at the University of Regina; applicants are asked in a one-page document to briefly outline courses within their expertise that could be offered at the 200 and 300-levels. The potential for cross-listing and/or interest to students outside the major and honours streams should be noted.
Interested candidates should forward an application (including a letter of application, curriculum vitae, graduate transcripts, evidence of teaching effectiveness, sample of scholarly work, and the documents noted above) in a single PDF file to:
Dr. Tom Phenix, Dean of Campion College
Campion.Dean at uregina.ca<mailto:campion.dean at uregina.ca>
Candidates should also arrange for the submission of three confidential letters of reference, either to be sent separately in PDF format to Campion.Dean at uregina.ca<mailto:campion.dean at uregina.ca>, or as part of a package by those using Interfolio or a similar service.
Review of applications will begin October 25th, 2024, and will continue until suitable candidates have been identified. Salary is commensurate with qualifications and experience. All qualified candidates are encouraged to apply; however, Canadians and permanent residents will be given priority.
