Media Studies/Critical Communication: Tenure-track Assistant  
Professor to begin September 2008. The Bentley College English  
Department seeks a teacher-scholar and/or teacher-practitioner with  
broad training or experience in the field. Candidates should have  
demonstrated strength in one or, preferably, more of the following  
scholarly areas: new media industries and communities, media and  
globalization; and history/theory of the culture industry. Primary  
responsibility will be for critical communications courses in these  
fields. Other teaching will include undergraduate courses in areas  
such as: principles of globalization and the media; critical  
political economy of the media industries; children and the media;  
critical communication theory; digital or convergent media; media and  
democracy; and media pedagogies. Applications from those who combine  
scholarship with new media skills or with experience as media  
practitioners or within media industries or communities are  
especially welcome. Evidence of excellence in teaching is essential;  
an established record of scholarly publication and/or creative work  
is highly desirable, but we will consider applications from  
candidates who can otherwise demonstrate serious scholarly or  
creative promise. Ph.D. or equivalent is required. By October 15,  
2007, send letter of application, vita, dossier, and scholarly or  
creative work sample (not originals as these cannot be returned) to:  
Chair, Search Committee, English Department, Bentley College, 175  
Forest Street, Waltham, MA 02452-4705. We expect to interview at the  
National Communication Association Conference (November 15-18 in  
Chicago), but may interview local (New England) candidates on campus.
