    PUBLIC POLICY PROGRAM


    VISITING ASSISTANT/ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR



    The Rochester Institute of Technology seeks applicants for a visiting
    position in our innovative Public Policy Program. This position will start
    on September 1, 2007.



    The Public Policy Program offers a B.S. in Public Policy and a M.S. in
    Science, Technology, and Public Policy. The program is interdisciplinary,
    with students integrating courses in science and technology with courses in
    public policy, economics, and business. A major emphasis of the program is
    on quantitative and qualitative policy analysis. The program includes policy
    tracks in environmental policy, energy policy, information and
    communications policy, biotechnology policy, and homeland security policy,
    among others. More information about our program can be found at
    http://pubpol.rit.edu.



    This opening is for a one-year visiting position. The area of specialization
    is open; however, candidates should be able to integrate public policy with
    a science and technology related area. The successful candidate will have an
    opportunity to teach at both the undergraduate and graduate level.
    Candidates should have or be close to completing a Ph.D. in an appropriate
    discipline.



    Applicants should provide a letter of application, curriculum vitae, a
    statement of research and teaching interests, and the names, addresses,
    telephone numbers, and email addresses of three references. All material
    should be sent to:



    James J. Winebrake, Ph.D.

    Chair, Department of STS/Public Policy

    Rochester Institute of Technology

    92 Lomb Memorial Drive

    Rochester, NY 14623-5604



    Applications will be reviewed beginning 31 May 2007 and will continue until
    the position is filled.



    RIT is an equal opportunity, affirmative action employer looking for
    individuals with an ability to contribute in meaningful ways to the
