The Department of Ethnic Studies in the University of Colorado at Boulder invites applications for a faculty position. Academic rank is open. The department is particularly interested in candidates with an already strong record of funded research or with considerable promise to establish such a record.  It is expected that the candidate’s research program will contribute to and support our anticipated PhD program in “Comparative Cultures in the Americas.” The department has a strong preference for someone with a research program that may attract extramural support.

Applicants should submit a letter of interest detailing their qualifications, including a statement of what they believe they have to offer the Department. The application packet must also contain: a curriculum vitae, one writing sample, a prospectus of research and teaching to be undertaken in the first three years after appointment, and the names and addresses of at least three references familiar with the academic background of the candidate.

Applications should be submitted electronically at https://www.jobsatcu.com, posting # 805415. Review of applications will begin November 15, 2008.
Applications will be accepted until the position is filled. The University of Colorado at Boulder is committed to diversity and equality in education and employment.
