media forms and who would expand the department?s research and
curricular strengths, international scope, and interdisciplinary
interests.

activity.  S/he will be expected to teach in the core areas of our
undergraduate and graduate programs, supervise and curate student

a liberal arts curriculum emphasizing film and media theory, history,
and criticism.

The department serves over 400 undergraduate majors and 30 doctoral
students. Our facilities include a sound stage, screening rooms,
animation and digital media labs, and the state-of-the-art Pollock
Theater housed within the Carsey-Wolf Center, which supports research,
teaching, and public programming about all forms of media.

A PhD and/or MFA is expected by the time of appointment. Applicants
