Hi,

The College of Computing and Digital Media (CDM) at DePaul University in
Chicago invites Game Designers and Game Producers to apply for a
full-time instructor position (non-tenure track) in one of the most
innovative and fastest-growing Game Development programs in the country.
Located in the heart of Chicago's vibrant Loop and Lincoln Park
communities, our Game Development degree program is highly
cross-disciplinary, linked closely with our programs in Animation,
Interactive Media, Computer Science, Software Engineering, Digital
Cinema and Computer Graphics. The undergraduate degree, started in 2004,
has grown quickly to more than 200 students. The graduate degree, first
offered in 2009, is also showing strong growth. Students are
enthusiastic, engaged, and productive. For example, Devil's Tuning Fork,
a DePaul student game, is a 2010 Independent Games Festival Student
Showcase winner. You can learn more about the game program at
http://GameDev.DePaul.edu and CDM at http://CDM.DePaul.edu

Ideal candidates for the position will have an active interest in game
design and/or game production. Practical game development experience is
a plus. Job responsibilities include teaching, service, advising,
supervising student game projects and continued creative activities
and/or scholarship in the field. The position begins Fall of 2010. Rank
and salary are commensurate with qualifications and experience. An
advanced degree is not required for candidates with extensive experience
in game development or a related area.

philosophy, three references, and a URL of samples of relevant creative
