Faculty Recruitment Outreach Resources

These advertising and recruitment resources links are designed to assist faculty search committees in their outreach efforts to develop a well qualified and diverse pool of applicants from a broad audience. They include general publications, higher education journals, organizations serving minority and women professionals, and discipline-specific academic and professional organizations. 

This list is not intended to be exhaustive. Depending upon the specialization, each search committee may utilize additional resources known to the department.

Think creatively about ways to attract a diverse pool by advertising in newsletters produced by professional organizations or researching "listservs" (e-mail groups) which advertise positions for their members at no cost. Further, to reach a broad audience, it is recommended that publications of wide appeal be utilized (e.g., Chronicle of Higher Education). Finally, networking with colleagues and schools with a strong program or significant number of prospective applicants can be an effective method of recruitment.

The following documents contain numerous sites and e-mail contacts to assist you in your search.  Good luck!
