Faculty Positions in the School of Education
Assistant or Associate Professor STEM Education and Equity
The School of Education (SOE) at the University of California, Riverside (UCR) invites applications and nominations for a full-time, tenure-track Associate Professor of STEM Education and Equity. The position will commence as early as January 1, 2025, or as negotiated.
We are seeking a faculty member with commitments to advancing the field of equity and justice-based STEM Education. This includes research that expands perspectives and ideas, utilizes and builds on critical theoretical and methodological approaches, and demonstrates expertise in critical epistemic foundations that challenge and reimagine dominant, Eurocentric approaches to STEM education. Candidates could take on a variety of specific research directions and inquiries within STEM education across a variety of levels (e.g., systemic, structural, institutional). We are most interested in candidates invested in advancing research on the social constructs that impact STEM access such as identity, socialization, racialization, and more. Additionally, we especially encourage applicants with commitments to reclaiming Indigenous, or other non-dominant epistemologies in STEM, that draw from asset-based and culturally sustaining, justice-oriented theoretical foundations.
Inquiries about the position should be directed to the search committee chair, Marsha Ing.
