The Programs in Journalism Education and Women's Studies at Texas A&M
University (TAMU) invite applications for an ASSISTANT PROFESSOR IN
GENDER AND THE MEDIA, entry level.
The candidate must have a Ph.D. in Media Studies, Mass Communication,
Communication or related fields, as well as a demonstrated commitment
to Women's Studies as a discipline (a graduate certificate or
advanced degree in Women's Studies is a plus, but candidates might
also fulfill this requirement through a track record of publications
and/or dissertation work in the area of gender studies). The best
candidate also would have media experience. The candidate should
have a primary interest in gender and the media; broadcast, film,
and/or new media would all be acceptable focuses. Particularly
desirable would be a focus on gender in any of the following areas:
documentary film or broadcast, television news, the Internet,
international media studies, ethnic media studies, media and
sexuality. The candidate must be prepared to teach on a regular
basis Introduction to Women's Studies and introductory and/or
writing, editing, and design courses offered through Journalism
Education, in addition to developing new courses. We strongly
encourage applications from candidates who will increase the exposure
of our students to a diverse culture.
For full consideration, applicants should send a letter of
application, curriculum vitae, statement of research and teaching
interests, writing sample, and three letters of recommendation by 1
November 2006 to:
