    Assistant Professor of Public Policy


    The Department of Public Affairs at Roanoke College invites applications for a tenure track position open rank position, pending final approval, with a broad focus on public policy and ability to cover policy topics from both U.S.

    and global perspectives.

    The position will serve existing programs in the department and will support building our newly created, interdisciplinary, Public Policy program, including a major and a minor.

    The intended start date is August 2024.

    This is a full time, tenure track position, with a teaching load of up to eight courses during the academic year.

    Reassigned time is possible for advising, pedagogical and professional development, service, and for tenure track assistant professors, within institutional procedures and guidelines.

    We especially seek candidates who have a passion for teaching and mentoring undergraduates, embrace inclusive and innovative pedagogies, translate their research endeavors into learning opportunities for students, and have an interdisciplinary mindset.

    Advanced ABDs will be considered.


    We seek candidates who have a public policy focus and who can offer courses such as Issues in American Politics and/or Issues in Global Politics, Politics and Public Policy, Policy Analysis, and Research Methods, along with courses on topics related to their own research agenda (e.g., Education Policy, Human Rights Policy, Health Policy).

    The successful candidate will also contribute courses to the General Education (Intellectual Inquiry / INQ) curriculum.

    Theoretical perspective is open and, while the geographic focus of the candidate's expertise is also open (local, state, federal, international), their courses will cover several of these levels, including international.

    Methodological approach is also open, but familiarity with survey analysis will be considered an asset.


    A unique feature of this position is its potential association with the Institute for Policy and Opinion Research (IPOR) at Roanoke College, which conducts regular surveys on political, social, and economic issues throughout the state of Virginia.

    The successful candidate will have the opportunity to participate in the design, implementation, and analysis of survey data, along with interpretation of the results for the general public.

    The successful candidate will also have the opportunity to participate in the activities of the Roanoke College Center for Policy, Ethics, and Law, which supports and capitalizes on community partnerships and collaborations in the region.

    The Public Affairs Department administers majors in Political Science, International Relations, Criminal Justice, and Public Policy. In addition to excellent teaching and collegiality, the Public Affairs Department supports active professional participation and research.

    Faculty in the department are eligible to receive departmental funds and to apply for the College's various internal grants in support of their research and teaching.

    Assistance for pursuing external grants is also available.
