<p class="gmail-MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin-left:0in"><span style="font-family:Times">The Gender, Sexuality, and Women’s Studies program at
Bowdoin College announces a tenure-track position at the assistant professor level
in the field of global feminism broadly defined. We seek a social scientist
working at the intersections of gender, race, and social justice whose research
is located outside of Europe and the Americas or who incorporates transnational
or diasporic approaches to these regions. We especially invite applications
from those who can contribute to both gender and sexuality aspects of the
curriculum or who can address student interests in either social movements,
law, medicine, or science in society. We expect the successful candidate to
have prior interdisciplinary graduate training and teaching experience in
gender, women’s, and sexuality studies, although we also welcome applications
from candidates in traditional disciplines in the social sciences. <span></span></span></p>

<p class="gmail-MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin-left:0in"><span style="font-family:Times">We welcome applications from candidates committed to
the instruction and support of a diverse student population and those who will
enrich and contribute to the College’s ethnic and cultural diversity. We value
a community in which students of all backgrounds are warmly welcomed and
encouraged to succeed. In your application materials, we ask that you address
how your teaching, scholarship, and/or mentorship may support our commitment to
diversity and inclusion.<span></span></span></p>

<p class="gmail-MsoBodyTextIndent" style="margin-left:0in"><span style="font-family:Times">Bowdoin values a strong commitment to research and a
promise of long-term successful scholarly engagement as well as a dedication to
teaching excellence in a liberal arts environment. To support that, the College
offers internal funding in support of research and teaching, opportunities for
professional development, a junior sabbatical leave, and a post-tenure leave. The
teaching load is two courses per semester and includes courses in the candidate’s
area of specialization, feminist or queer theory, and courses in our program’s
core curriculum. Ph.D. required at the time of appointment. We recognize that
recruiting and retaining faculty may involve considerations of spouses and
partners. To that end, where possible, the College will attempt to accommodate
and respond creatively to the needs of partners and spouses of members of the
faculty. <span></span></span></p>
