Subject: [AASNet] The University of Sydney, Anthropology lecturer (two
positions)

Colleagues,
I would like to draw your attention to the advertisement currently running
for two anthropologists to join the Anthropology Department at The
University of Sydney.
Lecturer in Anthropology (two positions)
 
 
  Organisation:   The University of Sydney
  Closing Date:   03 Dec 2008
      
      
  Summary:   
  We are seeking to appoint two anthropologists who will enhance the
Department's position as an international leader in teaching and research
focussed on societies and cultures of the Asia Pacific region including
Australia.   
      
  Description:   
  School of Social and Political Sciences
 Faculty of Arts
 Reference No. 142453
 
 The Faculty of Arts, ranked in the top fifteen Arts faculties
internationally, prides itself on a long standing tradition of intellectual
rigour and a vibrant research and teaching environment. We offer the most
comprehensive and diverse range of humanities and social sciences in the
Asia Pacific region and it is in this spirit that we have created our newest
school, Social and Political Sciences (SSPS), incorporating the departments
of Anthropology, Sociology and Social Policy, Political Economy, and
Government and International Relations, as well as the Centre for Peace and
Conflict Studies. SSPS is experiencing significant growth and change during
its first year of existence, attracting high-calibre students to innovative
social science courses at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels.
 
 Australia's foundation Department of Anthropology, established in 1925, is
entering an exciting phase of growth and renewal. Following the recent
appointment of the Professor of Anthropology and the formation of the School
of Social and Political Sciences, we offer opportunities to join a dynamic
group committed to intellectual excellence in anthropology and its
intersections with interdisciplinary fields such as development studies,
health and healing, urban studies and migration. We are seeking to appoint
two anthropologists who will enhance the Department's position as an
international leader in teaching and research focussed on societies and
cultures of the Asia Pacific region including Australia.
 
 The Department has responsibility for the Anthropology and Culture and
Development majors in the Bachelor of Arts. Anthropology also contributes a
major to the Bachelor of International and Global Studies, and core teaching
and electives to the Masters degree in Development Studies. The successful
applicants will contribute strongly to the department's teaching and
research strengths and will work collaboratively with colleagues to foster
new research initiatives and curriculum innovation.
 
 Successful applicants will have:
 
 Essential:
 € a PhD in anthropology;
 € demonstrated experience and commitment to ongoing ethnographic field
research;
 € a strong record of peer-reviewed publications relative to opportunity;
 € demonstrated experience and commitment to innovative teaching and
curriculum development at undergraduate and postgraduate levels;
 € commitment to a sustained and active research program including research
grant applications;
 € demonstrated administrative skills;
 € evidence of capacity for collaboration in teaching and research.
 
 Desirable:
 € a record of successful honours and research student supervision;
 € competence in an Asia Pacific language.
 
 These positions are full-time continuing, subject to the completion of a
satisfactory probation period for new appointees.
 
 Remuneration package: $88,465 - $105,052 p.a. (which includes a base salary
Lecturer Level B $74,755 - $88,771 p.a., leave loading and up to 17%
employer¹s contribution to superannuation).
