EMPLOYMENT AT SAGE

SAGE welcomes your interest in employment with us. There are two types of staff positions available and recruitment for both is ongoing:

A) Instructor
As Instructor, you are responsible for planning the curriculum of a SAGE Seminar and for daily instruction, as well as being an academic role model and potential long-term mentor. Instructors should possess a Ph.D. or be ABD at the time SAGE begins, though exceptions can be made under rare conditions.

Unless otherwise noted, instructor applications must include the title and a 5-10 sentence description of the proposed course to be taught. Course information from previous SAGE years is provided on the website for informational purposes.

B) Teaching Assistant
As Teaching Assistant, you are responsible for assisting the Instructor as needed in gathering resources and managing your class. This includes supervising students at breaks and mealtimes, and conducting a daily 90-minute study/review session. TA’s will be assigned to instructors based on applicant’s topic knowledge except in rare cases.

To apply, please send a letter of interest, a resume and (if instructor) a course description to sage.academy@unlv.edu, call (702) 895-1688, or fax your documents to (702) 895-1226, attention SAGE Director. You will be notified upon receipt of all materials.

Please note:

Among applicants of otherwise equal qualifications, preference will be given to current UNLV full-time faculty and graduate students commensurate with UNLV’s non-discriminatory hiring policies.
SAGE is a non-residential program. Compensation is limited to salary and daily lunches in the UNLV Dining Commons and SAGE cannot provide housing for staff not residing in Las Vegas year-round.
Please contact the Director at the coordinates above for 2008 salary information or any other questions. We look forward to hearing from you!
