New York University Arts and Science Hiring for Postdoctoral Faculty Fellow in Global Works and Society, Liberal Studies at New York, NY Full Time

Liberal Studies at New York University invites applications for two Postdoctoral Faculty Fellow positions to begin September 1,
2023, 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 curriculum emphasizes conceptual and spatial frameworks to trace
the movement of ideas and the interconnectivity of material culture, through the study of different texts, histories, exchanges, structures
and systems, languages, arts, and writing from early antiquity through contemporary times. 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.

Liberal Studies Postdoctoral Faculty Fellows teach one course in the first semester, and two
courses for each subsequent semester in the Core Curriculum. Fellows work closely with an assigned Faculty Mentor, they attend pedagogy
workshops that explore innovative approaches to interdisciplinary global teaching, and they have the opportunity to lead faculty development
workshops or host program wide events in their area of scholarly, creative, or pedagogical expertise. Fellows are appointed for two years,
renewable for a third year based on performance and programmatic need; they are non-tenure track and non-renewable beyond the third year.

We seek applicants in the following area:

Global Works and Society
PhD in Political Theory,
Philosophy, History, or related fields in the social sciences. Candidates must demonstrate the ability to draw on ancient and early modern
sources in their teaching with a global, interdisciplinary emphasis in the Global Works and Society sequence of the Core Curriculum.
Candidates must embrace interdisciplinary and intersectional approaches from a variety of global perspectives and must have the ability to
examine relationships of power and to interrogate the historical roots of current challenges. 

Minimum qualifications:
Successful candidates must have a PhD conferred by the date of appointment, or have received the PhD no more than three years before the
date of appointment. 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. Commitment to excellence
in undergraduate teaching required; some college-level teaching experience, and evidence of outstanding scholarship and relevant
professional activity are desirable. 

Salary is $50,000 p.a. plus University benefits. Fellows will be provided with
offices, computers, and professional development funds.
