*Brandeis University Position Announcement:*

*Full-Time Lecturer in Anthropology, 2018-2019*



The Department of Anthropology at Brandeis University seeks to hire a
full-time Lecturer in Linguistic Anthropology to teach five courses spread
over the fall 2018 and spring 2019 semesters. Candidates with expertise in
digital cultures will be given particularly strong consideration. The
position may also include some advising of MA students on their masters’
papers. The position carries a salary of $54,621 plus benefits.



Three of the courses the candidate teaches should be in linguistic
anthropology (possible courses include “Language, Ethnicity, and
Nationalism,” “Communication and Media,” “Linguistic Anthropology,” and
“Language in American Life”). The other two courses will depend on the
candidate’s area of ethnographic expertise, but could include “New Media,
the Internet, and Society,” “Crossing Cultural Boundaries,” “Global,
Transnational and Diasporic Communities,” “Feast and Famine: Food and
Social Relations,” “Colonialism and Post-Coloniality in sub-Saharan
Africa,” “Psychological Anthropology,” a course in economic anthropology,
or a graduate seminar. Applicants are also welcome to propose their own
courses.



Candidates must have strong training in linguistic anthropology, previous
teaching experience and strong teaching evaluations, and PhD status at the
time of employment.



How to Apply:



Interested candidates should submit a cover letter, curriculum vitae,
teaching evaluations and the names of two references in single document
through our applicant portal at
http://www.brandeis.edu/humanresources/jobs/external.html. Elect option for

courses. It is our preference to confirm our Fall 2018 courses prior to
March 16, but we will consider applications until the position is filled.
