Now we need to map to sections.
About the role: could include the overview: full-time tenure-track associate professor, start Fall 2027, expert on public housing, global/transregional/cross-cultural contexts, commitment to social/sustainable concerns, providing access to finest education, commitment to justice, equity, diversity, inclusion, anti-racism.
Responsibilities: teaching required courses, advising capstone, teaching NYC built environment course, opportunity to teach advanced seminars, committee/department assignments administrative/supervisory.
Requirements: Ph.D. in urban studies, urban geography, architectural history or related field; ability to teach successfully; demonstrated scholarship or achievement; ability to cooperate with others for good of institution.
Qualifications (preferred): experience teaching undergraduate lecture courses and/or seminars in urban studies; scholarship appropriate for associate professor rank; deep commitment to city life and fundamental principles of public institution with highly diverse student body.
Skills: maybe combine some of the preferred qualifications? But we already have Qualifications for preferred. Skills could be things like ability to teach, scholarship, commitment, cooperation. However to avoid duplication, we could put under Skills: ability to teach successfully, demonstrated scholarship, ability to cooperate, experience teaching undergraduate lecture courses/seminars, deep commitment to city life, etc. But we already have those in Requirements and Qualifications. Might be okay to have overlapping but we must preserve all info; duplication is allowed? The instruction says remove duplicated lines. So we should avoid repeating same exact lines. We can rephrase but must keep info. Better to allocate each piece to one section only.
Thus:
- About the role: overview (position type, start date, focus on public housing, global/transregional/cross-cultural, commitment to social/sustainable, justice, equity, diversity, inclusion, anti-racism, providing access to finest education).
- Responsibilities: teaching specific courses (list), advising capstone, teaching NYC built environment course, opportunity to teach advanced seminars, committee/department assignments administrative/supervisory.
- Requirements: Ph.D. in urban studies, urban geography, architectural history or related field; ability to teach successfully; demonstrated scholarship or achievement; ability to cooperate with others for good of institution.
- Qualifications (preferred): experience teaching undergraduate lecture courses and/or seminars in urban studies; scholarship appropriate for associate professor rank; deep commitment to city life and fundamental principles of public institution with highly diverse student body.
- Skills: maybe we could include "ability to teach successfully" etc but that's already in Requirements. Could we omit Skills section? The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. If we have no unique content for Skills, we should omit it. So we can skip Skills.
- Benefits: health insurance, pension and retirement benefits, paid parental leave, savings programs; mentoring and support for research, scholarship, publication.
- Pay: salary range $109,519 – $133,558.
- Schedule: omit.
Now we need to format.
