The Gender, Sexuality, and Women's Studies (GSWS) Program at the University
of Pittsburgh invites applications for a non-tenure-steam lecturer
position. We are seeking a dynamic teacher who works at the intersection of
critical race/ethnicity studies and gender/sexuality studies. Pending
budgetary approval, the position will begin in fall 2017 with an initial
three-year contract, with the possibility of obtaining renewable three-year
contracts after satisfactory performance reviews.



Applicants must demonstrate interest and proficiency in teaching feminist,
gender, queer, or sexuality studies from an interdisciplinary perspective.
The successful candidate will be an innovative teacher and will teach
courses such as Introduction to GSWS, Introduction to Feminist Theory, Sex,
Race, and Popular Culture, and advanced special topics courses based on
areas of interest and expertise (e.g., Women of Color Feminism, Racialized
Masculinities, Global Sexualities, Queer of Color Critique, Disability
Studies, etc.). Candidates must be able to work collaboratively in an
interdisciplinary program, direct undergraduate research projects or
internships, organize events and student colloquia, and participate in
collective governance. A PhD in hand at the time of appointment is
required. PhD may be in any discipline, including Gender Studies,
Sociology, Anthropology, Ethnic Studies, or English. The teaching load is
three courses per semester.

The GSWS Program at the University of Pittsburgh is a vibrant community of
interdisciplinary students and scholars with an undergraduate major and
minor, a graduate certificate, and a very active events calendar with
visiting scholars, conferences, and other research activities.

Applicants should submit a dossier by December 15, 2016 at the following
link https://facultysearch.as.pitt.edu/apply/index/MTY2. Dossier must
include: a letter of application containing a description of academic
background and teaching philosophy, current curriculum vitae, graduate
transcripts, three letters of recommendation, a teaching dossier containing
sample syllabi, course materials, student evaluations, and a list of
courses that could be taught at Pittsburgh. An academic writing sample may
also be uploaded. A diversity statement is strongly recommended (upload as
“Vision Statement” in the system). Applicants are encouraged to share how
their past, planned, or potential contributions or experiences relating to
diversity, equity, and inclusion will advance the University of
Pittsburgh’s commitment to inclusive excellence. Questions can be directed
to the Director of GSWS, Todd Reeser at reeser at pitt.edu. For more
