The Department of Art History and Communication Studies at McGill University
invites
applications for a tenure-track position to begin on August 1, 2008, in the
area of Media
and Public Policy. Although the appointment is expected to be made at the
Assistant
Professor level, applications from more advanced candidates are also
invited. We are
open to all critical approaches, but we are particularly interested in
candidates whose
work is transnational in scope and addresses one or more of the following
areas: cultural
policy; political economy; globalization; activism; race, gender, ethnicity,
ability and/or
minority status. Theoretical approaches are also welcome. Candidates should
have a PhD
in a related field; evidence of scholarly promise will be a major
consideration. In addition
to conducting research, the successful candidate will develop courses in her
or his area of
specialization and supervise MA and PhD students. She/he will also be
affiliated with
Media@McGill, the universityıs new hub for research, scholarship and public
outreach
on issues in media, technology and culture. Knowledge of French is an asset.

http://www.mcgill.ca/ahcs and http://media.mcgill.ca for more information
about our
programs. Applications should include a cover letter, curriculum vitae,
three letters of
recommendation, and two writing samples (20-30pp). The search committee will
begin
reviewing applications on November 15, 2007 and will continue to do so until
the
position is filled. All qualified applicants are encouraged to apply;
however Canadians
and permanent residents of Canada will be given priority. McGill University
is
committed to equity in employment. Please address applications to: Professor
