Assistant Professor – History (Tenure-track or Tenured)
Job ID: 27797
Location: Guttman Community College
Full/Part Time: Full-Time
Regular/Temporary: Regular
Stella and Charles Guttman Community College, City University of New York, seeks an accomplished practitioner-educator in History to serve on the faculty and support the culture of teaching and learning across the institution.
This full-time, tenured/tenure-track Assistant Professor position will begin in Fall 2024. Full-time faculty are required to teach a 24-hour course load across Guttman’s two 12-week Fall and Spring semesters and 6-week Fall II intersession (visit the Guttman Academic calendar online for dates). Faculty are expected to teach in person but they may also have opportunities to teach online or in a hybrid format. Faculty on tenure-track appointments are expected to pursue scholarship and develop a record of scholarly production. Scholarship, whether in the faculty member’s disciplinary field or in the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, is required for tenure and promotion.
For this position, the successful candidate will be an interdisciplinary educator with expertise in History and Education for teaching courses within the Secondary Education Social Studies program as well as other history courses in the Liberal Arts program. Centered on social justice, Guttman’s education program emphasizes the importance of relationships, equity, and critical knowledge through liberal arts courses with a focus on history and education courses. The program will prepare students to be reflective, knowledgeable, and vocal advocates, and future teachers and community members. Faculty will enact this by teaching students how to think across disciplinary boundaries.
Candidates in this position will also teach the American Studies courses (“Introduction to Social Justice” and “Civic Engagement in a Global Society”) that constitute Guttman’s unique, required first-year seminar. The successful candidate will join an innovative and interdisciplinary group of scholars from the humanities and social sciences with complementary interests in social justice and secondary education. The Introduction to Social Justice course is linked with Composition I and involves collaboration across disciplines through participation on an instructional team.
Guttman faculty are also active members of the College Community through participation in collaborative service work initiatives that advance the goals of the College and University.
