Also mention Faculty Scholarship Program providing up to 6 TCH reassigned time. That's a benefit. So we have benefits. - Pay: salary range. - Schedule: teaching load 12 TCH a semester, plus possible reassigned time. That's schedule info. We must not repeat job title. Use

for each section heading. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep details like numbers, specifics. We must not include boilerplate like application instructions, EEO, etc. Also remove duplicated lines. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's craft. Structure:

About the role

... (position description paragraphs)

Maybe break into multiple

for readability but okay. Responsibilities: Could have

• for list of duties. But we have prose; we can also use

  . The instruction: Use

  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

    for prose. So if we have a list, we use ul. For responsibilities we could list: classroom instruction, student mentoring and advising, developing and updating courses and curricula; conducting rigorous data-driven research informing public policy; investigating AI and emerging technologies impact on community development, health care, affordable housing; establishing externally funded research program via grants; building collaborative partnerships; sharing research results in national/international venues; participating in shared governance, academic program vitality, sharing professional expertise; serving on committees, advising students, participating in curriculum review.

The position offers the opportunity to conduct high‑impact research that contributes to evidence‑based policies aimed at improving economic opportunity, health outcomes, housing affordability, and equitable access to emerging technologies. The successful candidate is expected to investigate how artificial intelligence (AI) and emerging technologies are transforming public policy, with particular attention to their impact on community development, health care, and affordable housing. The candidate should demonstrate an interest in leveraging innovative analytical tools and interdisciplinary approaches to address complex policy challenges. The successful candidate will be expected to establish a strong, externally funded research program by securing competitive grants and contracts from federal agencies, foundations, and other funding organizations, and to build collaborative partnerships across disciplines and with community, government, and industry stakeholders to advance impactful, policy‑relevant research. The standard annual teaching load for tenure‑track faculty is 12 teaching credit hours (TCH) a semester, with additional TCH reassigned time (course release) available for faculty with additional responsibilities such as mentoring doctoral faculty or administering programs. The anticipated start date is August 27, 2027.

    But we separated teaching load into schedule; maybe keep schedule separate. However we already included teaching load in About the role; but schedule section will also have it. Might duplicate. Better to keep schedule separate and not duplicate. So About the role should not include teaching load; we can keep it generic about research and teaching expectations but not specifics. However we need to preserve all substantive info; we can't omit teaching load. So we need to include it somewhere; schedule section is appropriate for teaching load. So About the role can focus on research and policy aspects, not teaching load. Let's adjust. About the role: focus on position description: research, policy, AI, grants, collaborations, teaching across programs, service, etc. But we can keep teaching load out. Let's draft About the role: includes description of role, research expectations, teaching across programs, service, department and school context, start date maybe. Responsibilities: list of duties (teaching, research, service). Requirements: list of required qualifications. Qualifications: preferred. Benefits: list. Pay: salary range. Schedule: teaching load details. Now ensure we don't duplicate. Let's write About the role:

    That covers a lot. Now Responsibilities: we can list teaching, research, service duties. But some of those are already in About the role; we need to avoid duplication but still preserve all substantive info. The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. It doesn't forbid duplication, but we should avoid
