The Department of Music at Carleton College is pleased to announce a two-year, postdoctoral fellowship in cultural musicology/ethnomusicology, starting on September 1, 2023. We seek an emerging scholar with a strong fieldwork-based component to their research, to complement the research methodologies and expertise of other members of the department, and who is interested in teaching in the context of a liberal arts program. We are particularly interested in candidates committed to teaching a diverse student body.
Fellowship candidates must have their PhD in hand when their fellowship begins, and must have obtained their PhD within the past five years. The two-year position involves half-time teaching (two courses one year, and three courses the next; Carleton's academic calendar consists of three ten-week terms) and half-time dedicated to research and writing. Courses to be taught could include a general introduction to the topics and methodologies of ethnomusicology, an "area course" which focuses on a particular region or topic, and an undergraduate seminar in the fellow's primary research specialization. Fellows are assigned a mentor through the College mentoring program and will also receive support for attending professional meetings and other development activities.
Candidates should submit the following materials: cover letter; curriculum vitae; and a statement about teaching students from diverse backgrounds in an undergraduate, residential liberal arts environment. After passing through an initial screening process, applicants may receive a request for the contact information for three references, including at least one who is able to specifically address teaching experience. The deadline for receipt of applications is February 21, 2023. All application materials can be submitted at go.carleton.edu/carletonjobs.
Carleton is a highly selective liberal arts college with a student body of approximately 2,000. Located in the thriving two-college town of Northfield, Minnesota, it is forty-five miles from the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, in easy reach of a vibrant metropolitan area that is home to three million people and rich cultural resources. Carleton College does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, creed, ethnicity, religion, sex, national origin, marital status, veteran status, actual or perceived sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, status with regard to public assistance, disability, or age.
