South Asian Literary Studies and Creative Writing

The University of Iowa Department of English invites applications for a tenure-track assistant professor with specializations in Anglophone South Asian literary studies and creative writing. We are seeking a writer/scholar whose expertise links texts across historical periods and geographies, especially as they intersect with and enrich departmental curriculum and research around Global Anglophone literatures, transnational/postcolonial literary studies, and creative writing in any genre. This is a tenure-track position. Teaching will be at the undergraduate and graduate levels, with a normal load of two courses per semester. This position requires committee responsibilities that contribute to the management of the department and university.
