        Two Faculty Positions



        The Labor Studies Program at Indiana University is one of the leading university labor education programs in North America and is administered by the School of Social Work.  The program caters to a diverse population of traditional, non-traditional, and labor union learners. The program offers a Certificate, Associate, and Bachelor of Science degrees in Labor Studies, as well as a variety of non-credit courses.  The Labor Studies Program is a state-wide program presently based on six of the eight Indiana University campuses.



        We seek candidates for two tenure-track positions.  One position is located on the Bloomington (IUB) campus and the other on the Indianapolis (IUPUI) campus.



        Responsibilities

        Teach labor studies courses both online and in the classroom, with particular attention to the changing needs and growing diversity of the labor movement; carry out research and labor related service; maintain working relationships with Labor Studies faculty on other IU campuses and with labor organizations; and develop and teach non-credit courses in areas of specialization.  Some travel is expected.



        Qualifications

        A doctorate in a field closely related to labor studies is required.  Candidates must possess significant research potential and demonstrate knowledge of and commitment to working in areas relevant to organized labor.  Special consideration will be given to applicants with direct experience in labor unions or community organizations, and/or who have expertise in Latino workers’ issues, and public sector labor issues.  Knowledge and skills of online education are desired.



        Salary

        Commensurate with qualifications and experience.  Indiana University offers an excellent benefits package.



        Application Procedures

        A complete application must include:  letter of interest, curriculum vita, and names of three references.  The letter of interest should include a description of one’s concept of the discipline of labor studies; how one’s strengths and competencies match the desired position; teaching philosophy, and labor movement experience.  Please specify the campus of application (Bloomington, Indianapolis, or both).

        Screening of applications will begin February 15, 2008 and continue until an offer is made, with an anticipated appointment date of August 2008.  All applications should be submitted electronically to:  Sarah Bailey Labor Studies Recorder, IU Bloomington schilder at indiana.edu.

        Indiana University is an Equal Employment Opportunity/Affirmative Action Institution and it is committed to achieving excellence through diversity.  The Labor Studies Program seeks qualified applicants from women, people of color, and other underrepresented groups.
