Job Title: Ranked Faculty - English
Job Rank: Assistant Professor

Specialty Areas: Sociolinguistics 


Description:

The English Department at St. Catherine University invites applications for a
full-time, tenure track Assistant Professor in Sociolinguistics. Salary
commensurate with experience.

Responsibilities include teaching three courses each semester for majors and
non majors at introductory through advanced levels, with opportunities to
teach in summer, in our January term, and in study abroad programs. In
addition to teaching, faculty are expected to advise and mentor students;
contribute to department and university service; and be engaged in scholarship
and publication, including possible collaborative research with
undergraduates.

Required qualifications: 
- A scholar in language studies with a doctorate (in hand or expected by
August 2019) in linguistics or in English or a related field with an emphasis
in sociolinguistics.
- Experience working with diverse undergraduate students and a research agenda
that includes attention to race, gender, critical discourse analysis, and
intersectional differences in language use are essential. 
- As English is affiliated with the International Languages Department, work
in multiple languages will be helpful.

The successful candidate will also bring secondary experience in any of the
following areas: 
- Composition and rhetoric, 
- Business and professional writing, 
- Cultural and media studies,
- Medical humanities, or 
- Asian languages and literatures

Though most language studies courses are offered in the on-campus
baccalaureate women’s college, English faculty also teach in the College for
Adults in online and hybrid formats.

This scholar will be joining an innovative and collaborative faculty of
English, French, and Spanish professors holding interdisciplinary and
team-teaching commitments and sharing requirements with ASL, Education,
Honors, Women’s Studies, Critical Studies of Race and Ethnicity, and the Core
Curriculum. The English major emphasizes equally requirements in literature,
writing, and language studies.

St. Catherine University seeks creative, adaptable faculty who enjoy working
in a university climate that promotes cultural diversity and multicultural
understanding. Candidates of color are encouraged to apply. Consistent with
the university’s commitment to women, diversity and social justice, preference
will be given to candidates who manifest these themes in their teaching,
research and service.

To apply, please see the application link provided below.
