Applicants should demonstrate excellence in teaching at the undergraduate level. Experience teaching in the field of Women's and Gender Studies is an asset. A Ph.D. in Women's and Gender studies or a related field, at or near completion, is required. Salary will be commensurate with experience and qualifications in accordance with the Contract Academic Staff Teaching agreement.
Interested applicants should send a short cover letter that indicates course preferences as well as a CV and teaching evaluations for up to the past three years to Dr. Susanne Luhmann, Chair of the Department of Women's and Gender Studies at lbos@ualberta.ca by March 17th, 2017. (Applicants who have taught in the department over the last three years only need to submit a short letter outlining course preferences). Positions remain open until filled.
*Please note that WGS 498 Special Topics in Women's and Gender Studies and WGS 298 Critical Issues are variable topic courses; applicants interested in teaching these courses should provide a course title and brief course proposal. WGS 298 should introduce students to some core concept of the field; while WGS 498 is directed at advanced students of WGS. We are especially interested in course proposals that add to our existing offerings in intersectional feminist analysis, critical race, Indigenous, and global feminist studies.
