[ecrea] Position announcement: Tenure Track Assistant Professor in New Media and Film/TV Studies at Georgia State University

Tenure Track Assistant Professor in New Media and Film/TV Studies

Georgia State University



The Department of Communication at Georgia State University in Atlanta invites applicants for
 a Tenure-track Assistant Professor position in New Media and Film/TV Studies to begin in August 2012.
Ph.D., M.F.A., or other equivalent terminal degree required.


We
 seek a scholar with an active research program underway, and are
particularly interested in candidates whose work intersects with at
least one of the following
 areas:  (1) Theoretical, critical, and/or
historical approaches to emerging media (e.g., gaming, interactive
media, mobile technologies); (2) International film and/or television
(specializations in Asia and/or Latin America especially
 sought); (3) Production studies and/or media industries. Because a high
 priority for the department’s doctoral program is to foster new media
research, candidates whose scholarship centrally connects to new media
or digital image culture are strongly preferred;
 because the position will address surging demand in a growing
undergraduate film/TV studies major, a grounding in television or cinema
 studies as well as a wide-ranging generalist teaching record is also
preferred.


Applications
 should include a letter of application and CV, transcripts, examples of
 scholarly or creative work, three letters of recommendation, and
evidence
 of teaching effectiveness. An offer of employment will be conditional upon background verification.
Review of applications will begin December 1, 2011.


Georgia
 State University is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action employer.
Women, minorities, and candidates from other traditionally
under-represented groups
 are especially encouraged to apply. Address applications to Dr. Alisa
Perren, Search Chair, Department of Communication, Georgia State
University, One Park Place South, Suite 662, Atlanta, GA 30302-4000.
