The Hagop
Kevorkian Center for Near Eastern Studies at New York
University invites applicants for a full-time, nontenure track
position as a Faculty Fellow to begin September 1, 2022, pending
budgetary and administrative approval. The appointment will be for
one year, renewable for a further two years.

We are seeking an outstanding junior scholar in any social science
or humanities discipline whose research offers a critical
perspective on the contemporary Middle East and would complement
the strengths of our existing faculty in Middle Eastern Studies.
The ideal candidate has an in-depth understanding of the modern
Middle East, knowledge of at least one Middle Eastern language, a
commitment to inclusive pedagogy, and has a PhD in one of the
following fields: Anthropology, Middle Eastern Studies, Middle
Eastern History, Cultural Studies, Politics/Political Economy,
Sociology, Urban Studies/Geography, or similar. A PhD must be in
hand by September 1, 2022. The appointee will be expected to teach
at the graduate level (MAs and some PhDs); advise MA students; and
thoroughly participate in the activities of the Kevorkian Center,
including admissions, alumni and public outreach, and program
development.

Review of applications will begin immediately and will continue
until the position is filled.
For best consideration,
materials should be submitted
by no later than January 31,
2022.

Please apply online with a cover letter to the search committee
that describes your research and teaching interests; a CV including
names and contact information for three references; one sample of
your work; and a statement on your approach to diversity and
inclusion. Diversity, equity, and inclusion are important to the
NYU mission and
we ask that you address how diversity and inclusion factor
into your
teaching, research, and/or community engagement, as
well as how you would bring issues of diversity to bear on teaching
and programming at NYU.
