Description:

The Department of Language Studies at the University of Toronto Scarborough
invites applications for a full-time tenure stream position in the area of
English and Chinese Translation (machine or human). The appointment will be at
the rank of Assistant Professor, with an expected start date of July 1, 2021,
or shortly thereafter.

Applicants must have earned a PhD degree in English and Chinese Translation or
a related area by the time of appointment, or shortly thereafter, with a
demonstrated record of excellence in research and teaching. We seek candidates
whose research and teaching interests complement and enhance our existing
departmental strengths.

The successful candidate will be expected to pursue innovative and independent
research at the highest international level and to establish an outstanding,
competitive, and externally funded research program. They also will become a
member of the Tri-campus graduate department best suited to their area of
scholarly focus.

Candidates must provide evidence of research excellence as demonstrated by a
record of publications in top-ranked and field relevant journals or
forthcoming publications meeting high international standards, the submitted
research statement, presentations at significant conferences, awards and
accolades, and strong endorsements from referees of high standing.

Evidence of excellence in teaching will be provided through teaching
accomplishments, the teaching dossier including a teaching statement, sample
course materials, teaching evaluations, as well as strong letters of
reference. Candidates must also show evidence of a commitment to equity,
diversity, and inclusion.

Salary will be commensurate with qualifications and experience.

All qualified candidates are invited to apply online by clicking the link
below.

Applicants must submit:
- A cover letter,
- A curriculum vitae,
- A research statement outlining current and future research interests,
- A recent writing sample, and 
- A teaching dossier to include a teaching statement, sample course materials,
and teaching evaluations

Equity and diversity are essential to academic excellence. We seek candidates
who value diversity and whose research, teaching and service bear out our
commitment to equity. Candidates are therefore asked to submit a 1-2 page
statement of contributions to equity and diversity, which might cover topics
such as (but not limited to): research or teaching that incorporates a focus
on underrepresented communities, inclusive pedagogies, or the mentoring of
students from underrepresented groups.

Applicants must also provide the name and contact information of three
references. The University of Toronto’s recruiting tool will automatically
solicit and collect letters of references from each once an application is
submitted. Applicants however remain responsible for ensuring that references
submit letters (on letterhead, dated and signed).  

All application materials, including reference letters, must be received by
November 26, 2020.

All qualified candidates are encouraged to apply; however, Canadians and
permanent residents will be given priority.

Submission guidelines can be found at http://uoft.me/how-to-apply. We
recommend combining attached documents into one or two files in PDF/MS Word
format. If you have any questions, please contact Prof. Juvénal Ndayiragije at
the contact information provided below.
