We are seeking an outstanding researcher who will play a pivotal leadership role in cultivating interdisciplinary research in the areas of literature, media, philosophy, art history and the sciences, and stimulate investigations of innovative forms of poetic production and new ways of experiencing texts.

The ideal candidate will enhance the department’s recognized strength in the area of poetics in both our Academic and Creative streams, and will articulate and realize an exceptional, long-term research agenda that explores the intersection of literature and media with culture at large. Candidates of interest will have a doctorate in literary studies or a cognate field, an exemplary record of scholarly achievement and graduate supervision within the broad area of poetics, and will possess an established research agenda that explores how the profound changes in communication technologies have reshaped both the practice of poetry and poetics as a discipline.

This position is directly linked to priority areas in Concordia University’s Strategic Research Plan (2013-18): http://vprgs.concordia.ca/programsandpolicies/researchstrategicplan/download/strategic_research_plan.pdf

Concordia University’s academic culture celebrates research, creativity, and the transfer of knowledge in many ways that are ideal for today’s innovation driven society. The strategic deployment of CRCs is an integral part of Concordia’s overall plan to promote and develop its research enterprise.

Tier II CRCs will be exceptional emerging researchers who at an early phase of their careers (i.e. within 10 years of completing their PhD) have demonstrated the promise of a strong research profile and the potential to be leaders in their field.

Tier II CRCs are awarded for five years and are renewable once. These positions offer an attractive salary, an annual research stipend, reduced teaching loads, and the opportunity to apply for start-up infrastructure through the Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI) Leaders Opportunity Fund (LOF).

Applications must consist of a cover letter, a current curriculum vitae, copies of recent publications, a statement outlining academic experience and domains of expertise for academic supervision, a statement of teaching philosophy/interests, a statement of research achievements, a detailed five-year research plan appropriate to the goals and objectives of the CRC program, and evidence of teaching effectiveness.

Dr. Jill Didur Chair, Department of English Concordia University 1455 De Maisonneuve Blvd. W. Montreal, Quebec H3G 1M8 chair.engl.fas@concordia.ca http://english.concordia.ca/

The candidate will then be required to work with the Department and the University to prepare the formal CRC nomination according to the CRC program guidelines. The University will submit the nomination to the CRC Secretariat at the earliest opportunity.

NOTES:

Does anyone know if candidates need to send a dissertation abstract with this application? I don't see this mentioned in any of their job ads, but Interfolio is asking for one.

Yeah, I just saw that too. I'm assuming that perhaps "dissertation abstract" was implicitly contained in the word "dossier" in the job ad (though usually I just take that to mean LORs). In any case, if they're asking for it on Interfolio, I'll assume it's required.

The more I look into this job, the more it seems like a potential inside hire. There is a modernist studies VAP who fits this ad who also appears to have ties to another faculty member in the dept. Is this a fake search?
 * If so, at least they did the nice thing and made the application free!
 * These days VAPs rarely turn into permanent positions at elite schools like Swarthmore, even if the VAP in question "appears to have ties to" someone on the tenure track. Sorry, but "fake searches" don't often happen at this level and when they do, you're unlikely to find out by just Googling around.

Acknowledgment received:

Request for additional materials: (11/29) x10 Letters of reference requested. Note: Based on 4 reports of requests in 10 minutes on a holiday weekend in the US, I would assume this request was sent to all applicants and is more of an "acknowledgment" than a "request for additional materials."

-- According to the discussion below, perhaps HR has given the applications a once over and are selecting a wide swath of applicants to send references, based most likely on meeting HR requirements.

-- Question: I logged into my account and hit "send" next to my letters (the send box was lit up). These are linked email addresses to my Interfolio account letters. I did it this morning but have not had any response in Interfolio asking for a request. Is this the same for others? A: Interfolio is closed today.

--I contacted the Interfolio Help Desk-- they replied that their system seemed to have some trouble converting those requests into pending deliveries, and so the person replying had done that for me by hand. The delivery had by then appeared as pending for me.

- Question: Did anybody who applied NOT get a request for letters of reference?

NOTES:

Unlike other application sites, this one doesn't appear to automatically request letters from Interfolio when the links are entered (at least, it didn't for me). Is this everyone's experience? I'm assuming they'll either ask for the ones they want upon review (or ask for all of them together when the apps are in--but then why not just do it automatically?). But this seems weird (though at $4 a pop now for Interfolio letters, maybe considerate as well...) Has everyone had the same experience with the site? Thanks!
 * A: This was my experience too. I assume they will request letters from their long-list.
 * A: I actually contacted the HR department. In prior experiences with the Microsoft App platform, the pending request on the Interfolio site had always populated within an hour of submission. Indeed, the word from HR is that they only push the request button after the first culling.
 * Can someone explain the above please? I too entered the information for my references, but that is all I could do. Will UMass send out an e-mail request to the recommenders if one makes the first cut?
 * A: Apparently, yes.

The Department of English Language & Literature at the University of South Carolina (http://artsandsciences.sc.edu/engl/) invites applications from qualified candidates for a position at the Assistant Professor level in Global Contemporary Literature. We seek a scholar whose commitment to literary analysis is complemented by an attention to the conditions of aesthetic production and consumption in an increasingly globalized world. Area of specialization (British, American, and/or other Anglophone literatures) is less important than a capacity to “think” literature and culture in relation to contemporary processes of globalization. We especially encourage applicants whose work focuses on shifts in the meaning of nationhood, transnational publication patterns, the globalization of “English,” and/or counterhegemonic constructions of the global. PhD. should be in hand at time of appointment. Relevant subfields include film/media studies, translation studies (broadly conceived), transnational queer or feminist theory, postcolonial studies, and world-systems analysis. To apply, please send cv, letter of interest, writing sample, and at least three confidential letters of recommendation (which may be sent either electronically through Interfolio [strongly preferred] or in hard copy) to: William E. Rivers, Chair, Department of English, University of South Carolina Columbia, SC 29208. For full consideration, application materials must be received no later than November 1. 2013.

The Department of English Language and Literature features a strong and flexible undergraduate major and graduate degrees in literature, composition and rhetoric, creative writing, and speech communication. Our diverse faculty includes internationally-known scholars in English and American literature, African American studies, composition and rhetoric, history of authorship and publishing, literary theory, linguistics, communication studies, film, and creative writing. The University of South Carolina's main campus is located in the state capital, close to the mountains and the coast. The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching has designated the University of South Carolina as one of only 73 public and 32 private academic institutions with “very high research activity” and also lists USC as having strong focus on community engagement. The University has over 31,000 students on the main campus (and over 46,000 students system-wide), more than 350 degree programs, and a nationally-ranked library system that includes one of the nation’s largest public film archives.

The University of South Carolina is an affirmative action, equal opportunity employer. Minorities and women are encouraged to apply.
