The Graduate School of Journalism at Columbia University invites applications for a full-time, visiting professor (rank to be determined) to be appointed for two years.
We are seeking a leading practitioner and instructor in journalism who can help students understand fast-paced news environments and the changing demands of the profession. The visitor is expected to teach core courses, such as Reporting and Image and Sound, in which students produce work often focusing on municipal government, courts, education, diverse communities and similar lines of reporting near our New York campus.
As the Joan Konner Visiting Professor of Journalism, the candidate’s teaching assignments may include teaching a foundational Reporting and Image and Sound Course and/or a seminar in the candidate’s specialty area, supervising masters’ projects, and advising students. The candidate may also contribute to the Master of Arts program as well as the dual degree journalism and computer science program.
The ideal candidate would have a substantial publishing record as well as experience as a teacher, writer and editor. Demonstrated experience with multimedia production and storytelling is required.
To qualify for this two-year visiting professorship, the candidate must currently hold an appointment at another academic institution.
A bachelor’s degree is required; an advanced degree is preferred.
This two-year visiting position is expected to be appointed from July 1, 2027, through June 30, 2028, with a renewed appointment from July 1, 2028, through June 30, 2029, pending performance and administrative approval.
