Utah Valley University is hiring in environmental philosophy and they are especially interested in hiring someone who can approach the topic from a non-Western perspective, and so asked me to share the following information here.
The Department of Philosophy and Humanities at Utah Valley University invites applications for a tenure-track position at the rank of Assistant Professor beginning August, 2016. AOS: Environmental Philosophy. AOC: Open. 4/4 teaching load, upper and lower division. Internet and evening courses possible. Ph.D. Preferred, ABD with strong evidence of imminent completion will be considered.
