PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD!!

The Department of Gender and Women's Studies has an opportunity to teach a small-to-mid-sized, upper division elective in Gender and Women's Studies in Spring 2022. We are interested in fresh perspectives on gender and sexuality studies, and would be particularly interested in people able to teach the following topics (although note that we are open to proposals for other topics):

Women in Film
Film, Feminism, and the Avant-Garde
Gender and Science
Gender and the Politics of Childhood
Gender, Race, and Law
Interrogating Global Economic "Development"

If you are interested, please send a SHORT paragraph with your expression of interest to Laura C. Nelson, department chair ([email protected]) and Eric Stanley, vice chair for pedagogy ([email protected]) ASAP. We are not asking for a full proposal at this point, and speed is of the essence! After this step (but not at this point), you would need to submit further materials to the Lecturer Pool, and the department will interview candidates. Note that we are unable to hire current graduate students for this position. Thank you!

The Department of Gender and Women’s Studies at the University of California, Berkeley seeks applications for an assistant professor, tenure-track faculty position, with an expected start date of July 1, 2019.

Diversity, equity, and inclusion are core values of UC Berkeley. Our excellence can only be fully realized by faculty, students, and staff who share our commitment to these values. Successful candidates for our faculty positions will demonstrate evidence of a commitment to equity and inclusion through their research, teaching, and/or service. Further information available at: https://ofew.berkeley.edu/recruitment/contributions-diversity

We are seeking applications from candidates with thorough training in the discipline of women, gender, and sexuality studies. Because of the interdisciplinary characteristics of the field, we are open to candidates from degree programs in any relevant department or discipline. This is an open search, although we are particularly interested in candidates with a scholarly focus on gender and visual, and/or digital cultures and technologies; critical race theory and/or critical indigeneities and American politics; and/or gender and science studies/reproduction. We are interested in a scholar with deep commitment to feminist transnational, postcolonial, and decolonial perspectives.

We are also interested in individuals who may have had nontraditional career paths or who may have taken time off for personal reasons (e.g., caretaking or disability), or who have achieved excellence in careers outside academe (e.g., in the arts, advocacy, or professional service).

In order to help GWS alumni and current students who have participated in the program over the past 20 years, a foundation is being created. This will provide the following: a space for alumni to connect with each other and to stay connected to the research of current students; serve as a place for alumni to find jobs opportunities; and provide funding opportunities to sustain the program for future generations.
