Digital Humanities broadly understood. (ABD candidates will be
required to submit a letter from their dissertation advisor
guaranteeing completion of the degree by the time of appointment).
Successful candidates will have expertise in areas such as archival
studies; born-digital literature and/or media; computational and/or
corpus linguistics; cultural analytics; data visualization; digitally
mediated communication; distance reading; human-computer interaction;
narratology; science, technology, and society; interface design and
multimediality; or related areas. They will be invested in working
closely with and mentoring English and SDS undergraduate and graduate
students, and fully participating in service to the English
Department. We are also interested in candidates who can work
collaboratively with faculty, students, and community partners from a
wide range of disciplines, cultures, and academic backgrounds.
Evidence of experience pursuing, obtaining, and/or plans to obtain
national and/or international grants will be considered favorably. The
salary range for this position is $77,000-$80,000 (with a possible
