Recruitment Period

The UCLA César E. Chávez Department of Chicana and Chicano Studies invites applications for part-time lecturers to teach interdisciplinary undergraduate and graduate courses in Chicana and Chicano Studies during the 2020-21 academic year.

The department is seeking a candidate who specializes on examining the research, policy, and infrastructure needs of civil society actors responding to the human rights crisis facing global migrants in Baja California.

As the fastest growing department in the Division of Social Sciences at UCLA, Chicana and Chicano Studies reflects not just the growth of UCLA’s Chicano/Latino student body, but also more seismic demographic changes, in Los Angeles, California, and the nation. The department of Chicana and Chicano Studies strives to fortify the connection between UCLA and its surrounding urban context and chosen lecturer candidates will assist in these efforts with their ability to integrate their overlapping commitments to academic success, teaching excellence, and equity, diversity, and inclusion.

Applicants should hold a Ph.D. degree or equivalent expertise in their field of specialization and have at least one year’s teaching experience at the college level. All applicants must complete an UC Recruit online application including submission of a current Curriculum Vitae, Statement of Teaching, Statement of Contributions to Diversity, proposed course syllabi, and the names and contact information of three references.
