Description

The Division of Humanities of the Hong Kong University of Science and
Technology (HKUST) is searching for suitable candidates to fill a
tenure-track position at the level of Assistant Professor in the
disciplines of film, media, or cultural studies.  Areas of specialization
include Chinese-language films, Japanese films, Korean films, East Asian
films in comparative perspectives, media studies, or East Asian popular
culture.  Preference will be given to candidates whose research is
border-crossing, interdisciplinary, and integrates the formal analysis of
film and media with rigorous theoretical concerns.  The position is to be
filled beginning in Fall 2023.  The successful candidate is expected to
contribute to the introductory Common Core course, Critical Thinking, and
Data Literacy, and teach courses in east Asian cinema, world cinema, and
popular culture that complement current curricular offerings.

Apart from a master’s degree program in Chinese Culture and a research
postgraduate degree program at both the master’s and doctoral levels under
the broad umbrella of the Division of Humanities, the Division offers
general education courses for all undergraduates at HKUST.  Together with
the Division of Social Science, the Division of Humanities offers a
multidisciplinary undergraduate major program of BSc in Global China
Studies.
Qualifications

Applicants should have a PhD degree from a reputable university and show
promise of becoming a colleague with a publication record of international
impact, a record of grant/fellowship application, proven commitment and
performance in both undergraduate and graduate teaching, and demonstrated
service to the academic community and the public.  English is the medium of
instruction and administration at HKUST, but native or near-native
proficiency in one major East Asian language is expected.  HKUST is an
institution promoting diversity.  We therefore strongly encourage suitable
candidates of diverse backgrounds to apply.
Application Instructions

Applications should be sent via Interfolio together with (i) a cover
letter, including a brief statement of research and teaching; (ii) full CV;
(iii) two writing samples of chapter/article length work, all in PDF
format; and (iv) record of teaching performance and/ or outlines of two
proposed undergraduate courses.

Three reference letters should be submitted via Interfolio as the preferred

The Search and Appointments Committee of the Division will begin to review
the applications from 31 October 2022.  The review process will continue
until the position is filled.
