          Position description

    The Department of Communication (http://communication.ucsd.edu/
    <http://communication.ucsd.edu/>) within the School of Social
    Sciences at the University of California San Diego is seeking to
    make an appointment at the rank of Assistant Professor, to begin
    Fall, 2023 in the following area:

    Language and Social Justice: Our ideal candidate will have an active
    and creative research and teaching program that focuses on the
    relationship between language and struggles for social justice
    particularly as they occur around race, indigeneity, gender,
    disability, class and nationality. Also of interest is how language
    becomes an instrument for perpetuating systems of exclusion and
    inequality, and at the same time a vehicle for framing alternative
    visions that challenge such systems. Areas of specialization may
    include: language and globalization, including bilingualism and
    multilingualism; language and decolonization; language and
    migration; language and learning systems; language and media
    culture; multimodality; political, moral, and legal discourses
    related to language; and ecolinguistics (the relation between
    language and the environment). We are open to candidates trained in
    communication, relevant areas of linguistics (such as
    sociolinguistics) or other relevant fields.

    Successful candidates will have strong methodological skills that
    augment the department’s interdisciplinary program and strengths in
    cultural and historical analysis, institutional analysis (including
    political economy), comparative analysis, ethnography and textual
    and discourse analysis, and community based participatory research.
    Candidates from a wide range of disciplinary backgrounds and/or with
    a research focus on LatinX or other underrepresented language
    communities are encouraged to apply.

    The Department of Communication and the University of California San
    Diego are committed to academic excellence and diversity within the
    faculty, staff, and student body. We seek candidates who will
    maintain the highest standards of scholarship and professional
    activity and make a strong and meaningful contribution to the
    development of a campus climate that supports equality and diversity.
