The ENVS “ Intensive s” are an innovative, collaborative teaching and learning approach based on student learning communities. We launched this initiative in 2023, and it has proven invigorating for faculty and enlightening for students.
Flexibility in teaching is a must for ENVS faculty, given the breadth of disciplinary perspectives in the environmental field and the diversity of people (students, researchers, practitioners, and community members) engaged in current environmental issues. The candidate selected for this job should be willing and able to embark on pedagogical innovations to meet current and future demands of environmental science and our students. While excellence in teaching is the top priority for all faculty at Ithaca College, a productive research program including peer-reviewed publications and attempts to secure extramural funding is also a criterion for tenure.
One of our hallmarks is student-faculty collaborative research. All ENVS faculty work with several students at a time in a research lab group or workshop. These collaborations are supported by three teaching load credits (equivalent to one course) per year. Examples of ongoing faculty-student collaborations are available on the ENVS Web site , including:
In addition to teaching and scholarship, all Ithaca College faculty are expected to participate in service at the level of the Department, as well as at the level of the School, College, local community, or profession.
