California State University
Channel Islands
Join us in an academic adventure for the twenty-first century!
FACULTY POSITIONS AVAILABLE
California State University Channel Islands (CSUCI), which will open the fall of 2002, became the twenty-third campus of the California State University system in October 1998. This "green" campus is situated in a valley among the hills west of Camarillo, close to the Pacific Ocean, between Santa Barbara and Los Angeles. Among the many attractive features of this new university is the affordable on-campus faculty housing projected to be completed in 2002.
CSUCI is committed to implementing, supporting, and rewarding approaches through which excellence in teaching and learning occurs, research is applied, scholarship is defined and redefined, and service is rendered. CSUCI is also committed, through partnerships with its community, to developing programs that address the academic, economic, community, and social needs of Ventura County.
This new campus will begin, in 2002, with the admission of cohorts of community college transfer students into an array of new undergraduate programs, and post-baccalaureate teacher preparation programs.
About twenty-five (25) full-time faculty members will be hired onto the tenure track in spring 2001 to begin work in fall 2001
to plan and implement the curriculum development efforts necessary to have the newly designated CSUCI programs ready for fall 2002, and to develop a small, upper-division general education program for 2002. The new faculty will work closely with teams of faculty consultants from other CSU campuses and with administrative staff, may of whom, in each group, have been working for two or more years on this project. The first group of faculty will play an important role in the hiring of the following year's faculty. When the curriculum is implemented, all faculty will assume a normal teaching load.
Faculty appointments will be made on a variety of bases, including tenure/tenure track, lecturer positions, and full-time or part-time visiting appointment at the Assistant, Associate, or Full Professor level. All faculty members in the CSU are covered by a collective bargaining agreement.
CSUCI hires on the basis of merit, and encourages qualified minorities, women and persons with disabilities to apply.
The exact mix among the 25 full-time faculty who will appointed during this initial cycle will, in part, depend upon the strengths of the various pools of candidates and upon the pattern of the qualifications that the finalists possess.
