Job Description:
The Social Sciences Academic Area at Wilmington College invites applications for a full-time (9-month), non-tenure-track Assistant Professor of Criminal Justice to begin in January 2026.
We seek a practitioner-scholar with significant applied experience in policing, courts, and/or corrections who can bring real-world insights into the classroom and prepare students for professional roles in the justice system. The successful candidate will have the ability to translate lived professional practice into engaging, practice-oriented teaching and student mentorship.
The teaching load is 3-3, with primary responsibility for undergraduate courses in applied criminal justice, such as policing, corrections, courts, criminal law and procedure, and community-based justice. Because the program already includes a sociological and theoretical emphasis, candidates with direct professional experience are strongly preferred.
Additional responsibilities include mentoring students pursuing careers in law enforcement, corrections, courts, or community justice; contributing to service within the College, community, and profession; and supporting the College’s mission of preparing graduates for lives of service and success.
