Posting Details

Job ID: 116134

College/School: Chicago, IL - College of Liberal Arts & Social Sciences

Eligibility is restricted to humanities scholars who have received their PhD in Comparative Race and Ethnicity Studies, Black/Africana Studies, or related Humanities fields no earlier than 2019 and who will have the PhD in hand by June 2023. Appointment will be for the academic year 2023-2024. Those applicants whose degree is in a traditional Humanities discipline should ensure their application reflects connection to the guiding ideas and concerns of Black Studies.

The Fellow will receive an academic year (10 month) salary and two months of summer compensation. DePaul will also provide a moving expenses budget, office space and modest funds for travel and research. This is a benefits-eligible position.

DePaul University seeks applicants that reflect the diversity of its student body and the city of Chicago. Applicants who have experience working with a diverse range of faculty, staff, and students, and who can contribute to an inclusive climate are encouraged to identify their experiences in these areas in their diversity statement. Women and members of historically underrepresented groups are especially encouraged to apply.

We are especially interested in candidates whose work and interests align with DePaul’s Vincentian mission which calls on the university to address the great questions of our day, promoting peaceful, just, and equitable solutions to social and environmental challenges.

NOTE: This is a post-doctoral (non-tenure track) position and is dependent on funding from non-university sources, therefore this position is not renewable for a second year. The selected candidate will not be eligible for tenure.

Please electronically submit a CV, cover letter, a teaching statement, sample syllabus for a class fitting the fellowship description, a writing sample, and three confidential letters of recommendation.

Please contact search committee chair Dr. Julie Moody-Freeman at jmoodyfr@depaul.edu with any questions.
