Instructor
Illinois State University is a Doctoral I university offering
58 undergraduate programs in 157 fields of study and 32
master's, one specialist, and eight doctoral programs. The
University's enrollment is 20,000. The state's first public
university, Illinois State is also one of the largest
universities in Illinois. Tenured and tenure-track faculty
members total 683, of whom 95 percent have doctoral or terminal
degrees in their disciplines. The University has committed
financial resources, faculty, staff and facilities to the goal
of providing the premier undergraduate education in the state of
Illinois. Beginning in the fall of 1998, the entire freshman
class will participate in a newly adopted, innovative General
Education curriculum designed to ensure that all students
possess the critical thinking and communication skills needed
for upper-level courses, graduate or professional study, and the
workplace of the future.
An important characteristic of Illinois State University is
its dual emphases on teaching and research. New initiatives to
enrich teaching and student achievement such as the General
Education Program (1997), the faculty-led Center for the
Advancement of Teaching (1996), and the comprehensive student
support unit, University College (1996), are complemented by the
University's research commitment. Illinois State's five colleges
(Applied Science and Technology, Arts and Sciences, Business,
Education , and Fine Arts) and two laboratory schools attracted
more than $10 million in external funding in fiscal 1997. Milner
Library supports scholarship and learning at Illinois State,
with more than 3 million special holdings and collections; the
Library is also a central node of interlibrary service through
the Illinois Library Network and OCLC. Opportunities for
teaching and research have increased with the opening this year
of a new, $36 million Science Laboratory Building. A new
performing arts center has been funded and is being designed.
Illinois State University's 850-acre campus is located in
Bloomington-Normal, a prosperous community of 100,000 situated
midway between Chicago and St. Louis. Bloomington-Normal/McLean
County's diverse, stable and recession-resistant economy has its
strength in insurance, education, agribusiness, and
manufacturing. The region traditionally has one of the lowest
unemployment rates and one of the highest wage bases in the
state. McLean County is a Midwestern crossroads: Three
interstate routes, an Amtrak rail corridor, and a regional
airport offering commuter and jet service to major national and
international destinations converge in Bloomington-Normal. There
is a long tradition of higher education in Bloomington-Normal,
which is home to two universities, two two-year colleges, and a
school of nursing. A community that values education at all
levels, Bloomington-Normal has outstanding public school
systems.
Due to the adoption of the General Education program, growth
in critical programs such as Teacher Education, and increasing
retirements, Illinois State now offers exceptional faculty
opportunities. If you are a scholars with an uncompromising
commitment to teaching, and if you are interested in joining a
dynamic and progressive academic community, Illinois State
University invites you to apply for the following positions, all
of which are tenure track unless otherwise indicated. For more
information about the University, and links to the colleges, the
departments, and the community, visit our Web site:

Our fax number is [52] + (7) + 329-7082 (must ask first for fax tone). Although the final decision in employing candidates rests with Promep, our Department must evaluate all applications, so it is advisable that we receive copies of the candidate´s application (cover letter) and CV. A copy of the former is not necessary if the candidate submits directly to us his or her application in original. The fax cover sheet should be sent to the attention of Dra. Ana María Chávez y/o Dr. José Miguel Esteban. In addition, the applicant may choose to send to our Department a Statement of Purpose. The application, cover letter and the rest of the required documentation, should be addressed to ´Comisión Promep´. Publications may be submitted in English.
