The College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Tennessee invites applications for four open-rank tenure-track positions from individuals whose research agendas encompass scholarship and creative activity related to the continent and/or peoples of Africa, the African diaspora, and/or the African-American experience. Individuals appointed to these positions will have a tenure home in one of the College's 21 Departments or Schools (www.artsci.utk.edu) and will also be expected to make substantive contributions to the mission of the College's Interdisciplinary Program in Africana Studies (http://web.utk.edu/~africana) , including teaching undergraduate Africana Studies courses.
The School of Music particularly encourages applications for these positions from qualified individuals pursuing research agendas pertaining to any musics of Africa or the African diaspora, with backgrounds in ethnomusicology, historical musicology, or the cultural anthropology of music.
UT's Musicology program offers an innovative B.A. program in Music & Culture, an M.M. degree in integrated Musicology, and a comprehensive branch Music Library; the program and faculty emphasize musics' interactions with culture, including research topics addressing gender, identity, representation, drama, and music technoculture; see http://web.utk.edu/~musicol/index.html.
