Communication Faculty Job Market Continues to Recover
October 8, 2019
The National Communication Association on Monday released its annual job ads data, reporting a 130 percent increase in listings from 2009 to 2019: just 351 job ads were posted a decade ago, at the height of the Great Recession, compared to 808 this year. Job listings are up year over year as well, from 745 in 2018. The association’s report says that these numbers are better understood when paired with Ph.D. data. Some 626 communication doctorates were conferred last year, so there were fewer new scholars than jobs advertised -- good news for job seekers. More than half (467) of this year’s advertised positions were tenured or tenure track.
