JOB: Asst. Prof of Rhetoric and New Media (TT) at UNC-CH
Hi all, I just found out yesterday that none of my messages to the AOIR list were going through (some internet researcher I am, huh?). The deadline for this job unfortunately is next week but I wanted to repost it here anyway. My department at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill has a tenure-track Assistant Professor of Rhetoric job open this semester, specifically rhetoric of New Media. https://unc.peopleadmin.com/postings/242107 The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill invites applications for a tenure track position at the rank of Assistant Professor specializing in Rhetoric to begin July 1, 2023. The Department of Communication is seeking to hire an Assistant Professor of Rhetoric whose research and teaching focus on rhetoric of new media (video games and gaming, AI, digital art, AR/VR, digital and interactive storytelling, etc.). As a tenure track faculty member, duties will include research, teaching undergraduate and graduate classes on rhetoric, new media technologies, and in their areas of specialization, graduate advising, and departmental service. Preference will be given to scholars whose work addresses how rhetoric of new media intersects with scholarship engaging marginalized publics. Marginalized publics include groups who experience marginalization based on race, gender, sex and gender identification, sexual orientation, ability/disability, citizenship status, as well as other categories. Candidates’ research and pedagogy should be informed by critical theory and antiracist scholarship, which complements our department’s strengths and continued investment in the roles that communication plays in the fight for equity and justice. Preference may also be given to candidates with a focus on the relationship between public advocacy and new media; critical thinking about digital discourses, cultures, and spaces; and/or production/maker skills related to new media such as game design, programming, motion graphics or animation. Let me know if you have any questions! Warmly Alice Alice E.
