ASSOCIATE Professor – Critical Race Theory/Ethnic Studies and Humanities/Cultural StudiesÂ
“We seek candidates whose scholarship makes a substantive, creative and interdisciplinary intervention in Critical Race Theory/Ethnic Studies and Humanities/Cultural Studies as these foci intersect in a global context with Trans*, Gender, Race, and Sexuality Studies and related community organizations and initiatives. The successful candidate will contribute interdisciplinary expertise and leadership to the development of a research agenda and academic programming in support of Critical Race Theory/Ethnic Studies. The GRSJ Institute is currently building capacity in Critical Race Theory/Ethnic Studies and opportunities exist to contribute to graduate and undergraduate curriculum development of an Undergraduate Minor/Graduate Specialization in Critical Race Theory/Ethnic Studies as well as collaborations with additional Social Justice units and initiatives in the Faculty of Arts specifically, and UBC more broadly. We seek a dynamic scholar and collaborative colleague with an internationally recognized, accelerating research trajectory related to Critical Race Theory/Ethnic Studies and Humanities/Cultural Studies – ideally in combination with a commitment/involvement in decolonizing knowledge projects that are relevant to the growing diversity of Canadian society and the consequences of globalism, neoliberalism and transnationalism.”
