FACULTY FELLOW
Religious Studies Program
ARTS AND SCIENCE
New York University
The Religious Studies Program in the Faculty of Arts and
Science at New York University invites applications for an
appointment as a Faculty Fellow. The appointment will be for one
year beginning September 1, 2018, renewable annually for a maximum
of three years, pending administrative and budgetary
approval.
Candidates must have completed a Ph.D. no earlier than three years
before the date of appointment, have a strong commitment to
teaching and participating in the interdisciplinary Program's
activities. We seek applicants whose area of empirical research
lies in African-American Religious life in the United States. The
ideal candidate will demonstrate a combination of historical depth
with an awareness of contemporary issues in American public life.
An ability to analyze religion alongside other fields of
difference, such as gender, race, and sexuality, is a plus. The
candidate should be prepared to teach Theories and Methods in the
Study of Religion (an introductory course on anthropological,
sociological, and phenomenological approaches to the study of
religion), as well as two other courses, the nature of which will
in part depend upon her/his qualifications.
Application deadline is February 15, 2018.
