Description:

Miami University’s Heanon Wilkins Fellows program recruits annual cohorts of
up to ten (10) scholars with a strong interest in pursuing a career as a
faculty member, pairing them with dedicated mentoring and intentional
preparation for a career in higher education, ideally as a tenure-eligible
faculty member at Miami University.

This program is named after Dr. Heanon Wilkins, Miami University's first
full-time African-American faculty member. A distinguished professor of
Spanish, Portuguese, and Black World Studies, Dr. Wilkins is an enduring and
inspirational example of Miami’s teacher-scholar faculty, having received
Miami's highest honors in teaching, research, and service. Honoring his
impressive legacy, we hope to recruit cohorts of excellent future faculty to
Miami through this program.

Each academic year, we publish a call for Fellows applicants whose area(s) of
expertise align with areas of expected need in the next two years. While we
cannot guarantee tenure eligible positions for all Fellows, Fellows have been
successful in securing tenure eligible positions at Miami in the past.

Applications from scholars from all disciplines are encouraged. English
(African American literature; African American and/or Latino/a/x rhetoric;
poetry; or linguistics with a specialty in African American, and/or Latinx
discourse and/or dialect) is among the many many fields in which the
university is searching. 

The Fellowship is for a minimum of one full academic year (9-month faculty
appointment) with a strong possibility of reappointment. Heanon Wilkins
Fellows have reduced teaching responsibilities in order to foster a vibrant
research program, engage in mentoring and career development, and the
opportunity to engage with highly accomplished teacher-scholar faculty
colleagues and Miami’s impressive students. The Fellows program is designed to
prepare individuals to be highly competitive in future faculty searches
(tenure track or teaching/clinical professor or lecturer (TCPL) positions),
especially those we anticipate at Miami University.
