Fordham University: Arts & Sciences: Sociology & Anthropology
Bronx, NY
Deadline: May 17, 2021 at 11:59 PM Eastern Time
The Department of Sociology and Anthropology at Fordham University invites applications for a postdoctoral position in critical race studies. This is a one-year position beginning September 2021, with the possibility of renewal for a second year. The successful candidate will be an early career scholar with a promising research program, and will also be able to add to the department’s undergraduate course offerings.
This is an exciting time to join the Fordham community. The Department of Sociology and Anthropology has recently added several faculty who focus on race and ethnicity. Fordham University is actively strengthening diversity, equity, and inclusion throughout the Arts and Sciences, including faculty and curricular offerings. In addition, our cosmopolitan setting in New York City offers unparalleled opportunities for research with diverse populations. The selected candidate will have access to professional development funding.
The position’s annual teaching load is 1-1, plus additional service including a public lecture, delivering occasional guest lectures in courses, and participating in anti-racist pedagogy workshops or curricular design efforts. Fordham is preparing for a fully in-person fall semester, and candidates must be able to relocate to the New York area and teach on campus. Teaching responsibility will initially be in the undergraduate program at Fordham College at Rose Hill (Bronx), with the possibility of teaching at Fordham College at Lincoln Center (Manhattan) for the second year.
Qualifications
Candidates should be recent Ph.D. recipients (2018–2021), or expect to have the degree in hand by August 2021. We welcome applications from scholars who hold degrees in sociology, as well as those trained in interdisciplinary fields (such as, but not limited to, African and African American Studies, Asian and Asian American Studies, and Latinx Studies). Candidates must be capable of teaching sociology courses on race. Demonstrated excellence in teaching, evidence of a strong and promising research agenda, and an enthusiasm for working with a diverse student population are required.
Application Instructions
Applications should be submitted online at Interfolio and should include a cover letter, CV, writing sample (no more than 50 pages), sample syllabi, teaching evaluations and the names and contact information for three references. We will begin reviewing applications by May 17th and continue until the position is filled. Please direct inquiries to the Committee Chair, Dr. Matthew Weinshenker (weinshenker@fordham.edu).
Equal Employment Opportunity Statement
Fordham is an independent, Catholic University in the Jesuit tradition that welcomes applications from all backgrounds. Fordham is an equal opportunity employer.
