Liberal Studies at New York University invites applications for two
Clinical Assistant Professor positions to begin September 1, 2022,
pending administrative and budgetary approval.
The Liberal Studies Core is a dynamic liberal arts curriculum that
provides a global and interdisciplinary foundation for nearly 100
NYU majors. The Global Liberal Studies Bachelor of Arts is an
innovative global studies major grounded in the spatial,
conceptual, and temporal understandings of a highly interconnected
world, with a program of study that is distinguished by
experiential learning, study away, and independent research focused
in an interdisciplinary concentration. In both the LS Core and the
GLS Major, small, seminar-style classes and close faculty-student
interaction ensure the benefits of a liberal arts college within a
large urban research university. We are especially interested in
hiring qualified candidates who can contribute through their
research, teaching and service to the diversity and excellence of
the Liberal Studies community.
We seek applicants for the following positions:
Writing and Translation:
Ph.D. or M.F.A. in Writing Studies, Translation Studies, Creative
Writing, or related field. Candidates must have the ability to
teach in the first year writing sequence of the Core Curriculum
with a global, interdisciplinary, and intersectional emphasis.
Candidates must have the ability to teach upper-division seminars
focusing on theoretical and/or applied aspects of translation and
to contribute to the development of a new minor in translation
studies.
Writing and Screenwriting and/or Digital
Storytelling:
Ph.D. or M.F.A. in Writing Studies, Cinema and Media Studies,
Creative Writing, or related field. Candidates must have the
ability to teach with a global, interdisciplinary, and
intersectional emphasis in both the first year writing sequence of
the Core Curriculum and upper-division Global Liberal Studies
seminars in screenwriting, documentary scriptwriting, digital
storytelling, and/or multimedia storytelling.
Minimum qualifications: Ph.D. or M.F.A. by the date of appointment;
three years of college-level teaching experience; and demonstrated
excellence in teaching. We are especially interested in qualified
candidates who share Liberal Studies’ commitment to diversity,
equity, and inclusion, and who can contribute to the diversity of
intellectual life in LS and NYU. Candidates must present
demonstrated experience and commitment to interdisciplinarity,
intersectionality, and a teaching approach informed by global
perspectives. Publications and evidence of outstanding scholarship
and relevant professional activity are strongly
encouraged.
All Liberal Studies full-time faculty hold renewable term
contracts, initially three years, and later five years in duration.
Faculty are eligible for promotion within the Clinical faculty
ranks (Assistant, Associate, Full). Faculty normally teach three
classes per semester, advise undergraduates, and contribute service
to Liberal Studies and to the University.
Applications include ONLY (1) a cover letter, (2) a current c.v.,
and (3) a Diversity and Inclusion Statement addressing past and/or
potential future contributions to diversity through teaching,
professional activity, and/or service (additional information can
