Subject: [NIEM] Job vacancy: Assistant or Associate Professor, Migration and
Diaspora Studies (Carleton University, Ottawa, Canada)
From: Forced Migration List<fmlist@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Carleton University, in Ottawa, Canada, invites applications for an appointment
at the rank of Assistant or Associate Professor in the area of Migration and
Diaspora Studies.
This position is an interdisciplinary strategic hire to enhance Carleton
University’s research, teaching and program development in Migration and
Diaspora Studies. The successful candidate will undertake high-quality
research, teach undergraduate and graduate courses on Migration and Diaspora
Studies and supervise graduate students.
This position is also intended to help mobilize an area of research strength at
Carleton by providing leadership within a community of more than 20 faculty
members and many more graduate students already working in this area. While
informed by a variety of disciplinary and thematic perspectives, the research
of this community is fundamentally concerned with issues relating to
transnationalism, broadly defined, and the social, cultural, political and
economic implications of the movement of people.
The successful candidate will have:
• a doctorate from either an interdisciplinary program (eg. Migration
Studies or Development Studies) or from a related discipline (inter alia
Anthropology, Economics, English, French, Geography, Law, Political Science,
Public Policy, Sociology);
• a demonstrated research and publishing record in the field of Migration
and Diaspora Studies, preferably with a specialization in a region or regions
of the Global South;
• experience teaching at the undergraduate and graduate levels;
• a record of securing research funding; and
• a demonstrated ability to work in an inter-disciplinary context.
Experience in program development and management would be an asset.
The position would initially be based in an academic unit relevant to the
hire’s disciplinary background, pending the launch of the Institute of
International Studies at Carleton University.
