Tenure Track Positions

Faculty are usually hired at the rank of assistant professor, with an earned doctorate normally required by the time of appointment. However, some recruitments will allow for completion of the degree within a set time after hiring, and if this is the case, it will be outlined in the announcement. Some positions may be advertised at assistant/associate professor, and highly competitive candidates may be considered for those positions at the higher rank. The university offers an excellent benefits package.

Sonoma State University is committed to increasing the diversity of its faculty to reflect the diversity of the State of California.
