Position Summary
The Graduate School of Education ( GSE ) at the University at
Buffalo, SUNY is committed to fostering a diverse, inclusive,
socially engaged community of scholars who prioritize teaching,
research, and outreach that address educational, economic and
social disparities. Addressing and combatting structural
inequities, particularly racism, is central to the vision, mission,
and work of the Graduate School of Education. To do this
effectively requires innovations in pedagogy and research that
identify new ways of achieving equity, diversity, justice, and
inclusion. Specifically, we are interested in scholar-activists
across a range of disciplines who are committed to (re)shaping
scholarship around race and ethnicity to improve access,
opportunity, and policy across society and within school
systems.
Fundamentally, we believe improving vital social measures, such as
race relations and social, emotional, and economic opportunities
and outcomes for underrepresented minoritized individuals and
communities, requires a concentration of scholars who, from their
varied disciplinary backgrounds, are committed to tackling these
educational, economic and social disparities.
Priority status will be given to applicants making strong and
innovative contributions to their field; with experience working
effectively with racially minoritized graduate students; who have
developed and demonstrated critical pedagogy skills; and who have
engaged their academic and local communities to address vital
social issues.

Social Studies Education We seek scholars whose
research and teaching interrogate and build robust historical
thinking and civics education through exploring questions such as:
1) What deep funds of social studies knowledge do minoritized
students and their families share and practice? 2) How has student,
teacher, and/or community activism against systemic oppression
evolved among diverse, intersectional populations, including
indigenous, racial, ethnic, refugee, multilingual, gender minority,
and disability groups? 3) In what ways can educators respond as
intersectional-allies with and for students and their families
including, for example, trans* and non-binary students and English
language learners? And, 4) How might such knowledge, struggle, and
allyship transform curriculum, instruction, historical thinking,
civics and civility, and the democracy in which they are
situated?
