Thanks!

The Gender, Sexuality, and Women's Studies (GSWS) Program at the University
of Pittsburgh invites applications for a non-tenure-steam lecturer position
in the area of gender and science.

Pending budgetary approval, the position will begin in Fall 2019 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 relations
between gender and science from an interdisciplinary and intersectional
perspective. The successful candidate will be an innovative teacher and
will develop a general education course “Gender and Science” while also
teaching GSWS courses such as Introduction to GSWS, Introduction to
Feminist Theory, and advanced courses based on areas of interest and
expertise (e.g., Gender and Disability, Gender and Medicine, Science and
Sexuality, Gender and Health, etc.). Candidates must be able to work
collaboratively in an interdisciplinary program, direct undergraduate
research projects or internships for majors and minors, 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 but not limited to Gender Studies, Sociology, Anthropology,
Communications, Philosophy, or Science and Technology Studies. 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 February 22, 2019 at the following
link https://facultysearch.as.pitt.edu/apply/index/MjMyDossier must
include: a letter of application containing a description of academic
background and teaching philosophy, current curriculum vitae, graduate
transcripts, three letters of recommendation, sample syllabi, course
materials, student evaluations (2-4 sets), and a list of courses that could
be taught at Pittsburgh. A diversity statement is also required (upload as
“Brief Personal Statement” in the system). No personal statement is needed.
Instead, please upload a statement addressing your contributions to
diversity through research, service and/or community engagement. Applicants
should 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. An academic
writing sample may also be uploaded.

Questions can be directed to the Acting Director of GSWS, Prof. Rachel
Kranson at kranson at pitt.edu. For more information, see http://gsws.pitt.edu
