Apply now Job no: 493357
Work type: Faculty Full-Time
Location: Denver, CO
Categories: Faculty
The Center for World Languages and Cultures promotes engaged
learning, teaching, and practice of the world's languages and
cultures; integrates languages and cultures into all disciplines
and fields of study; and builds and supports interculturally
competent communities through the exploration and experience of
languages and cultures at the University of Denver with its local
and global communities and partners. Housed in the CWLC, the
first-year language program offers study in ten languages and aids
the student to experience the world through the lens of an acquired
language, and understand cultures - another's and their own - from
a position different to their primary language and cultural
identification. The linguistic contribution to intercultural
competency - that is to say, understanding another culture *in the
language of that culture* and not just through the translations and
perspectives of a mother-tongue and culture - is integral to
achieving personal, social and professional successes in a
multi-cultural and global future.
The first-year Russian program provides students with an
introduction to Russian language and culture and prepares students
to study further through the Department of Languages, Literatures &
Cultures. Here students gain a deep knowledge of Russian culture,
history, art, literature and politics. Students work with faculty
to hone their written and oral communication skills. The program
offers both a major and a minor and supports dual-degree seekers
who want to pair their knowledge of Russian with majors like
international studies, international business and intercultural
communications. DU houses one of the most extensive university
collections of Russian literature, and students expand their
knowledge of Russian further through DUs Russian Club and Dobro
Slovo, the National Slavic Honor Society.
The Center for World Languages & Cultures is strongly committed to
building a diverse and inclusive educational environment, which is
in full accord with the value that DU places on its commitments to
diversity, equity and inclusion. Candidates must demonstrate
ability to integrate content and issues relating to, and to work
effectively with, ethnically/racially diverse populations. Position
Summary The University of Denver will hire a full-time, appointed
Russian teaching assistant professor, non-tenure track, with full
benefits to teach primarily first-year Russian language sequences,
as well as the possibility to contribute at the intermediate and
advanced Russian courses and/or courses in English toward the
undergraduate common curriculum. The appointment will take effect 1
September 2021 and is renewable with the possibility of promotion.
Course load is eight (8) courses per year in a quarter calendar.
