LECTURER IN CULTURAL STUDIES
Job no: 0046129
Work type: Continuing
Location: Parkville

Salary: $98,755 - $117,290 plus 17% superannuation

world-leading scholars whose fields of research include literary and

The Screen and Cultural Studies Program at the University of Melbourne 
is an innovative and distinctive formation that fosters research and 
teaching in both Screen Studies and Cultural Studies, as well as the 
critical intersections between these discipline. Our Cultural Studies 
stream focuses critical attention on how cultural life is being 
transformed by three key developments: the intensified mobility of 
people and cultures in globalization; the impact of new media 
technologies in everyday life; and the far-reaching environmental and 
social aftermaths of industrial modernization.

Cultural Studies at Melbourne prepares students to enter this 
fast-changing world by directing critical attention to six central 
themes that reflect current conditions:

    Globalization and the intensified mobility of culture;
    Multiculturalism, cultural complexity, and super diversity;
    Transforming identities (gendered, sexual, ethnic and others);
    The uses and experiences of media in everyday life;
    Cultural and environmental sustainability;
    New cultural flows in the Asia-Pacific region, and Australia’s 
place within these.

The Lecturer in Cultural Studies will be expected to make major 
contributions in the areas of research, administration and professional 
development, and teaching excellence at both undergraduate and 
postgraduate levels including RHD supervision.
