with CGS. The successful candidate will teach five courses annually, including introductory methods and theory courses in Critical Global Studies.

The initial appointment will be at the assistant professor rank. Applications from candidates who are advanced assistant and associate
professors are especially welcomed, with the opportunity for accelerated tenure subject to Pitzer’s tenure and review policies. Pitzer College welcomes candidates who can contribute to the College’s mission and distinctive educational objectives, which promote interdisciplinary perspectives, intercultural understanding, and concern with social responsibility and the ethical implications of knowledge and action.
