About The Position
Faculty are essential to Liberty University's mission of Training Champions for Christ. It is expected that a faculty member model a personal commitment to the goals and values of Liberty University, engage in an active commitment to, and experience of, personal spiritual formation within a biblically informed Christian worldview. Faculty should view their teaching, engagement with students, and scholarship as a means to a significant educational end. They should strive to employ a variety of techniques for the development of good learning conditions, view each student as a unique individual, and insofar as it is possible, provide for individual differences, abilities, and interests. The Associate Professor's primary role is to teach in their areas of expertise, maintain the integrity of course and instructional programs, and to ensure that their delivery is in alignment with the University mission and vision for the student experience. As such, faculty are responsible for creating an academic atmosphere of mutual respect and consideration for individual dignity. Faculty members may be asked to aid in the development of curriculum in the residential and distance education environments, as well as engage in research/scholarship or creative activity that varies depending upon the expectations of their respective college or school and any additional activities involving service to students and their professional discipline. The Director of the Center for Excellence in Criminal Justice will be responsible for the organization and communication necessary for the quality, expansion, sustainability, and oversight of the all COE programs. The position will also require maintaining collaborative partnerships with local, state, and federal agencies to develop comprehensive education and training programs that prepare law enforcement professionals, students, and civilians to meet the challenges of modern policing and criminal justice, promoting ethical practices, leadership, and public safety.
