    Thank you for your interest in working at William Paterson University.

    William Paterson University invites applications for a full-time, non-tenure-track, 10-month position of Instructor in our Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) program in the Department of Sociology & Criminal Justice housed within the College of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences. The position begins August 15, 2024.

    This position offers an opportunity to join a growing Bachelor of Social Work program, for which accreditation is expected in June 2024. The position requires a dynamic and collaborative individual who has demonstrated successful teaching in the social work field.

    The initial appointment is for a series of one-year contracts over a five (5) year period, with annual renewal based on satisfactory evaluations of qualifications, teaching excellence, effective support of students, and collegiality. Subsequent longer term contracts may be available based on satisfactory performance and departmental needs.

    Department Overview

    The Department of Sociology & Criminal Justice is committed to preparing students for a diverse range of occupations in civil service and beyond, as well as preparing students to be good citizens. We provide students with the knowledge and analytical tools they need to understand and navigate the organizations and communities in which they will work and live.

    Currently the department consists of 14 full-time faculty and 17 part-time faculty, who together serve approximately 700 students majoring in sociology, criminal justice and social work as well as over 500 additional students taking general education classes in sociology. Most full-time faculty hold PhDs in sociology or criminology. Part-time faculty include social work practitioners and attorneys; several hold doctorates in sociology or criminology.

    Teaching five classes each fall and spring for the BSW program, including but not limited to Introduction to Social Work, Human Behavior and Social Environment I and II, Psychopathology & Well-Being, as well as sociology courses required of the BSW major, such as Sociology of Family, along with some general education (core curriculum) courses; may include evening and online courses. Using approved course outlines as a guide, develop relevant syllabi to deploy course content, objectives, and methods of student assessment.

    Contribute to student success by providing consistent and effective support and guidance through role modeling and mentoring; advising where needed and being available to the students for their questions and needs. Support students in their academic endeavors and enable students to develop strong communication and technology skills in a highly collaborative learning environment. Engage in assessment of student learning as well as program and accreditation assessment and reporting requirements. Engage in professional development to stay current and academically prepared in the field.
