Are you an experienced and influential academic with the proven ability to carry out teaching and research in critical and cultural theory and related topics? Do you have an excellent research track record and the vision and drive to tackle new challenges? Are you passionate about delivering world leading research and an exceptional student experience?
As an Associate Professor you will carry out research, teaching and management within the school, faculty and university and contribute to academic leadership in the field of cultural theory, broadly conceived.
You will have a demonstrable commitment, in research and teaching, to cultural theory as a critical intellectual tradition –from the Enlightenment through its poststructuralist, feminist, postcolonial retoolings– that has galvanized and taken inspiration from vital work in literary and film theory, critical media and sound studies among other domains. Further, you will have a well-articulated research interest in one of the following areas of critical inquiry: postcolonial studies, critical race studies, women and gender studies, or critical ecological studies. You will be expected to teach on a range of modules that introduce various aspects of critical theory and cultural analysis on the BA in Cultural and Media Studies and the MA in Critical and Cultural Theory. You will also show an interest in the School’s transdisciplinary ethos between fine art practice, the social history of art and cultural theory.
