The successful candidate will be expected to balance service contributions with scholarly productivity and teaching excellence, at the undergraduate and graduate levels.

The University of Prince Edward Island is recognized as a leading, innovative center of excellence in learning, teaching, scholarship, and has enjoyed considerable student case competition success in recent years. While it is strongly connected to the vibrant social and cultural environment of Prince Edward Island, it enjoys a reputation that extends far beyond the Island’s shores.

The University is located in the provincial capital of Charlottetown, a bustling tourist destination that boasts the amenities of a much larger city, including excellent theatre, galleries, music, and dining possibilities. A province-wide hiking and biking trail runs right along the UPEI campus, and the National Park beaches and world-famous golf courses are a short drive away. Charlottetown and its surrounding communities offer attractive and affordable housing options, a low crime rate, and a semi-rural lifestyle that is second-to-none.

Application Instructions:

Applicants should submit a curriculum vitae, list of publications, research outline, and a teaching dossier. Please arrange for three letters of reference to be sent directly to the address below.
