The University of Texas at San Antonio’s Departments of Race, Ethnicity, Gender and Sexuality Studies (REGSS) and History invite applications for a joint faculty position in African American Studies at the Assistant or Associate level beginning Fall 2025.
The Departments seek exceptional candidates with an interdisciplinary focus on Black experiences, culture, history, life writing, or performance studies broadly defined. We are particularly interested in scholars who employ intersectional, transnational, social movements, digital humanities, and/or social justice-focused methodologies in research and teaching. We are additionally interested in scholars who illustrate a conversance in Black-Brown articulations of history, culture, or contemporary forms of allyship.
Candidates should demonstrate evidence of innovative and effective teaching, and an active research agenda centered on communities of Black or African descent.
The joint appointment distribution will be 70% African American Studies/REGSS and 30% History.
The normal teaching load is two courses per semester.
Review of applications will begin October 21 and continue until the position is filled.
Application deadline: October 21, 2024
