[Commlist] Tenure-track position available in Film Studies and Media Production, University of Massachusetts Amherst

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, whose work falls into the 
area of critical media practice, exploring the intersections between 
film/media theory, history, and production practice, 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 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 also extends a larger department tradition of critical 
scholarship, complementing a commitment to original, interdisciplinary 
research with forms of expression not limited to the written word alone.

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; or the 
intersections of technology, aesthetic, or performance theories with 
media arts production.  Full description and link to application process:
