Job Description

DEPARTMENT/SCHOOL/COLLEGE: Department of English and Department of Global Cultural Studies/School of for the Humanities/College of Humanities and Social Sciences

POSITION DESCRIPTION:

The Department of English and the Department of Global Cultural Studies at Montclair State University, a Hispanic-Serving Institution just 14 miles outside of New York City, are offering a joint tenure-track position in Latinx Studies and Creative Writing at the rank of Assistant Professor beginning August 2027. We invite PhD and MFA holders to send applications. We are especially interested in candidates capable of teaching creative writing workshops, courses in our Latin American and Latino Studies program, and English courses. The candidate’s area of expertise should be informed by immigration from the Caribbean and/or Latin America, dealing with such concepts as bilingualism, borders, and social justice. The candidate must have the oral and written proficiency necessary to teach in both English and Spanish and demonstrate a robust record or exceptional promise in terms of publishing academic articles, poetry, fiction, or other genres in Spanish. The successful candidate may also be asked to collaborate with other departments’ cross-listed courses and to lead interdisciplinary initiatives.

Teaching: The standard annual teaching load for tenure-track faculty is 12 teaching credit hours (TCH) a semester, with additional TCH reassigned time (course release) available for faculty with additional responsibilities such as mentoring doctoral faculty or administering programs. Faculty are expected to center student success and measurable learning outcomes through clear course design, inclusive pedagogies, and the integration of emerging disciplinary and pedagogical developments. Responsibilities include classroom instruction, student mentoring and advising, and developing and updating courses and curricula aligned with student demands and institutional strategic priorities.

.

Research, Scholarship, and Creative Activity: Faculty are expected to be productive scholars or artists whose work embodies formal inquiry or creative expression that expands, enhances, or applies knowledge. Research results must be shared in significant national and/or international scholarly or artistic venues following rigorous review. The University supports these endeavors through the Faculty Scholarship Program (FSP), which typically provides research-active faculty with up to 6 TCH of reassigned time per academic year to pursue their scholarly agenda.

Service: Faculty members are expected to perform valuable service to the department, college/school, university, and professional communities. This includes participating in shared governance, academic program vitality, and sharing professional expertise within and beyond the University. Service activities are separate and distinct from the specific assignments for which faculty members receive course release.

DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH and DEPARTMENT OF GLOBAL CULTURAL STUDIES

The Department of English comprises more than 20 full-time faculty, over 300 undergraduate majors, and approximately 30 M.A. students; a diverse and wide-ranging literary studies curriculum is complemented by robust programs in creative writing, film studies, and teacher education. With more than 25 full-time faculty members, nearly 200 undergraduate majors across its programs, and approximately 30 M.A. students (Spanish and French), the Department of Global Cultural Studies is devoted to the study of global languages, literature, translation, cultural expression, religion, and Indigenous and Latino experiences. The department's interdisciplinary approach fosters linguistic and cultural literacy while advancing scholarship, research, and engagement across local and global communities.

THE COLLEGE OF HUMANITIES AND SOCIAL SCIENCES

The College of Humanities and Social Sciences (CHSS) is Montclair State’s largest college, with over 5,000 undergraduate, master’s, and doctoral students. CHSS facilitates traditional and interdisciplinary learning and is the professional home of many outstanding scholars and instructors across numerous disciplines, all of whom lend to CHSS’s mission to furnish academically rigorous and relevant programs of study that contribute to the development of an informed and engaged civil society. CHSS’s programs develop in students the abilities to discover, create, evaluate, apply, and share knowledge, so that they will be able to think critically, act ethically, and be informed citizen-participants prepared to assume leadership roles in their communities. CHSS also aims to be responsive to the needs of society, including via its championing of use-inspired research collaboratively undertaken by faculty and students, and graduate programs that train students to apply knowledge in constructive, inspiring, and practical ways that benefit our local and broader communities.
