Administration at the University of Massachusetts Amherst seek  
candidates for a full-time, tenure-track position as Assistant or  
Associate Professor of Communication and Public Policy starting  
September 1, 2006. Salary is competitive and based on qualifications  
and experience. The particular research focus is open, and could

computer-mediated communication, on-line communities, text messaging,  
blogging, or other developments in digital media and public policy.  
Candidates should demonstrate significant promise in scholarly  
research and extramural grant activity. The position requires

undergraduate and graduate courses in communication as well as  
undergraduate and graduate courses in public policy and  
administration. The successful candidate will be a joint appointment  
in CPPA and Communication with the tenure line in the Department of  
Communication, and will be expected to participate in a new College  
initiative in Science, Technology and Society in CPPA. Review of  
applications will begin on November 15, 2005, and will continue until  
the position is filled. Applicants should send a letter of  
application, curriculum vitae, and an article-length example of  
research, and arrange for three letters of recommendation to be sent  
to: Chair, Communication and Public Policy Search Committee,
