Visual Culture Caucus
Assistant Professor of Visual Culture Studies
Parsons The New School for Design is seeking qualified applicants with
professional and/or academic backgrounds for Assistant Professor of
Visual Culture Studies, a tenure-track faculty position in the School of
Art and Design History and Theory at Parsons.
Candidates are sought whose scholarship is in the history and theory of
visual and design culture and addresses issues of gender, race and
identity. Candidates must be innovative in their pedagogical approaches
to activate students’ interest in the relationship between theory and
practice, and be forward-thinking about methodologies appropriate to
complex and diverse 21st century global conditions. They must also be
prepared to teach students from a variety of disciplines across Parsons
and The New School. The successful candidate will have an earned Ph.D.
that addresses issues of gender, race, or identity, strength in
teaching, research, and scholarship, and demonstrate potential to build
a strong record of publications.
The School of Art and Design History and Theory offers courses to all
Parsons undergraduate and graduate students, and to students in other
divisions of The New School. It also offers two graduate degrees: MA in
History of Decorative Arts and Design (in collaboration with the Cooper
Hewitt National Design Museum) and MA in Fashion Studies (from fall
2010).
Full descriptions/requirements of this and other faculty positions are
available at http://careers.newschool.edu. Candidates should submit an
online application, including a cover letter and curriculum vita, at
http://careers.newschool.edu. Review of applications begins in November.
PARSONS DIVERSITY STATEMENT
Parsons The New School for Design, a division of The New School, values
diversity among our students, faculty and staff, who are a reflection of
the communities where we live, work, create, design and participate.
Diversity serves as a core value of our institution which we identify as
a critical element for achieving academic excellence. We believe that
strategic actions toward achieving diversity goals both individual and
collective, will facilitate a meaningful and sustainable impact
throughout The New School community and more broadly, effect social
change in art and design education. Recognizing that our ability to
grasp the historical, political and social contexts from which we work
is vital to fully embracing diversity, we seek the contributions of
people who are members of groups that are underrepresented in higher
education in the US and particularly in art and design.
