|
Posted By: How May I Help You NC on August 20, 2013 Tenure - Track Chinese Language & Culture:
The Department of East Asian Studies at Bucknell University invites applications for an open rank, tenure-track faculty position to begin August 2014. We seek a teacher-scholar in the humanities (with the exception of history and religion) able to teach Mandarin Chinese language at all levels in addition to courses in his/her area of specialization, and who is committed to integrating diversity issues into the curriculum. Although a Ph.D. at the time employment begins is preferred, candidates who are ABD will also be considered. Teaching responsibilities include five courses over the academic year, of which at least three courses will be Chinese language; and at least one will be in Chinese culture, taught in English. Specific courses offered will depend upon departmental needs and will determine whether the remaining course is in language or culture, although the department predicts that the remaining course will be in the core major area of language. Teaching experience, both language and culture, and/or formal training in teaching Chinese as a foreign language highly favored. Candidates must have native or near native command of Mandarin Chinese, with standard pronunciation. To apply, please submit cover letter; C.V.; writing sample; three letters of recommendation, at least one of which must speak specifically about language teaching; and teaching evaluations (if available) to https://jobs.bucknell.edu. E-mail submissions will not be considered; however, specific questions about the search may be directed to Erik R. Lofgren, Chair, East Asian Studies Department at mailto:elofgren@bucknell.edu. Review of applications will begin 1 November 2013 and continue until the position has been filled.
Bucknell University is a private, highly ranked, national liberal arts institution that offers strong professional programs in engineering, business, education, and music. Located in Central Pennsylvania along the Susquehanna River, Bucknell is nestled in the Borough of Lewisburg, an appealing Victorian-style town ranked as one of America's best small towns. Lewisburg and the surrounding region offer a unique combination of outdoor recreation opportunities, small-town charm, and amenities such as restaurants, art galleries, an art deco theater, museums, and boutiques. In addition to the many cultural and athletic events offered by the University and the Borough, the surrounding region offers outstanding schools, medical facilities, and an affordable cost of living. For those who crave the city, Bucknell is within an easy three-hour drive to Philadelphia, New York, Baltimore, and Washington, D.C.
Bucknell University, an equal opportunity employer, believes that students learn best in a diverse, inclusive community and is therefore committed to academic excellence through diversity in its faculty, staff, and students. We seek candidates who will be committed to Bucknell's efforts to create a climate that fosters the growth and development of a diverse student body. We welcome applications from members of groups that have been historically underrepresented in higher education.
