Assistant Professor of Human Resource Development

The School of Lifelong Learning in the College of Education and Human Development is accepting applications for a tenure-track Assistant Professor of Human Resources Development.

We welcome applicants whose teaching, research, service, grant activity, and other scholarly or civic activities demonstrate alignment with the expansion and development of the Professional Interdisciplinary Studies degree program and the growth of the Human Resource Development Concentration. 

The faculty, staff, and students in the School of Lifelong Learning are seeking innovative, ambitious, and creative people who are passionate about adult education and training, strengthening the connections between college coursework and career placement, expanding the digital literacy/21st century workforce competences of nontraditional students, and elevating the role of Jackson State University as a site of positive change in the realm of adult higher education, professional development, and community engagement. We are seeking collaborative new team members who conduct (and actively engage undergraduate students in conducting) high quality research/scholarship. Additionally, we seek candidates who will be able to work with their colleagues to redesign and teach rigorous in-person and fully online undergraduate level courses, non-credit seminars, and workshops for JSU students and community members.
