Description
The Department of Communication Studies at the University of Texas at Austin seeks applications for a full-time tenure-track assistant professor faculty member in Organizational Communication and Technology to begin Fall 2025.

Moody College includes programs in Advertising and Public Relations, Journalism and Media, Radio-Television-Film, and Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences.
The Department of Communication Studies has strong graduate and undergraduate programs and provides faculty research, teaching, and leadership support and opportunities. The faculty in the Organizational Communication and Technology area of the department are a cohesive group that teaches a wide range of graduate and undergraduate courses and advises a considerable number of graduate students.

We are interested in applicants who study a broad range of organizational communication types, practices and contexts. The contexts for our team's current research include AI and automation, crises and disasters, globalization, temporality, environmental issues, workplace democracy, supply and commodity chains, digital media, and democratic organizing.

We are especially interested in candidates whose scholarship touches on social impact for the public good, which could align with research units in Moody College such as the Center for Media Engagement and the Technology and Information Policy Institute.
