Recruit

The Department of Feminist Studies at the University of California, Santa Barbara invites applications for a pool of qualified lecturers to teach feminist studies courses in the Feminist Studies Department for upcoming openings. Screening of applicants is ongoing and will continue as needed. The number of positions varies from quarter to quarter, depending on the Department's needs. Positions may range from 22% to 100% time.

The posting will remain open until March 31, 2027 to accommodate department needs. The pool will close on March 31, 2027. When this recruitment closes, if you would like to continue to be considered after that time -- and the pooled position is advertised again -- you will need to submit a new application to the new recruitment.

We offer a Feminist Studies major and minor, LGBTQ minor, MA/Ph.D., and doctoral emphasis. General information and a list of our courses is available at University of California Santa Barbara Catalog
