[Jpjobs] singapore faculty job

[Postdoc]

The newly established Yale-NUS College (YNC) in Singapore, a 
collaboration between the National University of Singapore (NUS) and 
Yale University, announces the availability of faculty positions at all 
ranks and in all areas of the natural sciences, social sciences, 
humanities and arts. We seek outstanding teacher-scholars for the 
inaugural faculty who have a particular interest in undergraduate 
teaching in a residential setting and are committed to innovative 
pedagogy. Faculty members are expected to maintain a strong research 
focus, with particular strength in mentoring undergraduates in research 
experiences.

Startup funds, and continuing research funds on a competitive basis, are 
available through the College. The College will not have disciplinary 
departments, but joint appointments with NUS departments can be arranged 
in cases where the involvement of YNC faculty with research facilities, 
graduate students, and other activities at NUS would be mutually 
beneficial. We expect to hire approximately 100 tenured or tenure-track 
faculty over the next few years, about a third of whom will be in the 
natural sciences.

Field is open; candidates should be enthusiastic about contributing to 
an interdisciplinary common curriculum in the liberal arts. New faculty 
may start their appointment either in mid-2012 or mid-2013. Salary, 
benefits and leave policies will be competitive at an international level.

The College values diversity and is committed to equality of 
opportunity. All particulars of the application process and links to the 
application site and to other information about YNC can be found at

applications begins on November 1, 2011 and will continue until 
positions are filled.

The Yale-NUS College is Singapore's first liberal arts college, and the 
first with a full residential college model, integrating living and 
learning. It is also the first campus outside New Haven, Connecticut, 
that Yale University has developed.
