Critical Media Production/Film Studies | UMass Amherst

Hello,

I am excited to announce a faculty job search for a tenure-track position
that combines media production and film studies.  The Department of
Communication at the University of Massachusetts Amherst invites
applications for a tenure-track position in Film Studies and Media
Production. We are seeking talented applicants qualified for an assistant
professor position. Under exceptional circumstances, highly qualified
candidates at other ranks may receive consideration. We seek a colleague
who is a Film Studies maker-scholar and whose research includes a
commitment to critical paradigms expressed and embodied both in scholarly
publication as well as through moving image production.

This maker-scholar position will help integrate our Film Studies curriculum
with our Media Production offerings, while expanding the range of courses
we offer in both these areas at the undergraduate and graduate levels. This
position extends a department tradition and commitment to original,
interdisciplinary research that includes written as well as critical and
multi-modal scholarship. Specific areas of expertise are open, with
preference for candidates whose work is focused on Black cinema and
expressive culture, critical race, and/or postcolonial perspectives on film
and media. Review of applications will begin on October 1, 2022 and will
continue until the position is filled.

position.
